Workshop - Project Everest: Hybrid Agile Strategies for Reaching New Heights in Project Management
This dynamic program is built around the two years of planning and two months of climbing that went into making the goal of reaching the summit of Mount Everest a reality for Alan Mallory and three members of his immediate family. Alan puts specific emphasis on adopting an agile mentality so that we are not too rigid in our thinking. In this workshop, you will learn how to reframe activities to focus on results rather than tasks, develop trust in professional relationships, gain alignment and commitment, work through change, recognize strengths, manage schedules and risks, adopt an iterative approach which incorporates immediate feedback and effectively work together to achieve strategic goals.
Attendees will leave with the following takeaways;
-
Pick up key ideas on how to advance your career
-
Benchmark your current leadership attributes, skills and knowledge with public leaders
-
Develop your own Professional Strategic Plan
