Don’t Let Your Project Fail: Management and Communication Practices for Project Success

Next month, Naomi Karten, Author of Changing How You Manage and Communicate Change, will share critical management and communication practices for project success at ProjectWorld & World Congress for Business Analysts. There are countless reasons why a project fails. One of the most common is the increasing difficulty of projects. In addition to budget and resource constraints and technology challenges, projects face shifting project demands, demanding stakeholders, and the list goes on and on.

In addition industry leaders from Bank of America, Boeing, Cisco, FedEx, Humana, Shire HGT, Travelers and more will reveal PM and BA best practices and skills needed to accelerate your professional development.

Everything is Being Rebooted

Leading up to the Project World event later this month, we're taking a look at some of our most exciting sessions. Today we wanted to highlight our keynote by Carlos Dominguez, Senior Vice-President, Office of the Chairman and CEO, Cisco which will take place on Wednesday, November 16 at 8:30 am.

This session will be entitled "Everything is Being Rebooted: New World, New Rules - Surviving, Leading & Thriving in Our New World."

Technology is changing our new world at an unprecedented pace: we are always connected, consuming and contributing. This in turn is disrupting existing business models and creating new market opportunities. How do you leverage the present while preparing for the future? What do you need to know as leaders? Explore with Carlos “the tech nowist” how to leverage our changing world and win the hearts and minds of customers.

To learn more, download the brochure or join us from November 14th to 16th, 2011 at Disney's Contemporary  Resort in Orlando, FL for the 2011 ProjectWorld® & World Congress for Business Analysts®.

Friday Flicks: Three Project Management Videos

This week I came across a number of interesting videos on the Project World twitter account. Here they are in case you missed it.

First, I found this video about the program that Disney Institute offers.

Disney Institute will be presenting "The "Magic" Behind Great Teamwork: Disney's Approach to People Management" on Monday, November 14th at Project World.

Next, check out this new program "RedCritter Tracker."

RedCritter Tracker - Agile Gamification from Mike Beaty on Vimeo.

We've been discussing the influence of social media on project management software recently and this software takes that to a new level with Foursquare-style badges and a rewards store. What do you think, would you ever use a program like this? (If so, check out our track on "The New Era of Social Communication, Leadership & Collaboration.")

I also came across this video of PW&WCBA keynote speaker Carlos Dominguez, Senior Vice-President, Office of the Chairman and CEO, Cisco discussing collaboration tools and Cisco technology.
