Getting Projects Done Right

Webinar Details

We’re living in a project economy. This means that successful execution of projects is critical to organizations’ success. While the number of projects in both the public and private sectors is skyrocketing, the failure rate for projects remains high. The reason: leaders have too many projects and too little visibility into them, and lack the competencies to successfully lead and implement projects. The result? Worthy projects are starved of time and resources and fail to deliver the intended benefits, while too much investment goes to the wrong projects. To compete in today’s project economy, organizations must close this gap and develop leaders with the necessary project management competencies. Effective project management skills have become essential for all leaders. In this live, interactive HBR webinar on July 25, project management expert Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez—author of the HBR Project Management Handbook—will present a simple, intuitive framework to increase every project’s likelihood of success. Using case studies from multiple industries and companies across the globe, Nieto-Rodriguez will show how to: • Choose from your organization's inventory of projects which to pursue and which to kill. • Prioritize your projects and ensure projects are completed as planned. • Break any project into essential building blocks that are easily understood by all stakeholders. • Create a roadmap for becoming an effective project leader and executive sponsor. In today’s economy, effective project implementation is a key factor to achieving a company’s vision and differentiating a company from the competition. Learn the keys to getting projects done right and the skills needed to make project management an organizational competency from Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez and HBR on July 25.
