Insights® Team Effectiveness

Do you have a team that just doesn’t seem to click?  Do you get the feeling that if the team members could just understand each other and work together better they could significantly improve their productivity?  Have you tried team building activities or programs in the past, but they were forgotten in less than a week after the program was completed?  What if you had a workshop that was customizable to meet your specific needs, and was delivered by someone who really understands the challenges of a Team environment?  Click here Insights Team Effectiveness Brochure to learn more about our customizable Team Effectiveness Program, for Project or other intact Teams of any size.

Insights® Project Stakeholder Management - Influencing Without Authority

Are you a Program Manager or Senior Project Manager with a team of Stakeholders, possibly far more senior than you, whom you have to influence regularly, even though you have no input to their priorities?  Do your stakeholders have different preferences, perspectives and priorities and you must constantly play the mediator role of getting them to agree on the simplest of tasks?  Imagine if you could get your Stakeholders to understand the importance of, and take ownership of Project Risks. What if you were able to turn your Steering Committee into a forum that deals proactively with issues and risks, rather than being just a status update meeting?  Click here Insights Project Stakeholder Management Brochure to learn more about our “Insights Project Stakeholder Management Program – Influencing Without Authority” for Program Managers, Senior Project Managers or other senior project team members who need to influence senior stakeholders.
