Abstract :
Program Management Tips for Implementing Strategic Initiatives
General Overview:
Strategic initiatives are those ambiguous, complex, cross functional, visionary endeavors that every organization has underway. If implemented well, the organization gains many advantages. This presentation will help you better recognize how to take on a leadership role. Here are some examples of what you will learn:
- The four leadership roles for the program manager: Chief Story Teller, Chief Learning Officer, Chief Decision Architect, and Chief Integration Officer
- When the boss says, 'Here's my strategy,' what three questions can you ask to assure that you avoid making critical errors in your assumptions?
- How can you get people to buy into the vision?
- How you can use metrics to gain focus and alignment?
There will be ample opportunities for interaction with the speaker and with your peers.
