This session will provide step-by-step instructions to better hone your project management skills and show you how to LOVE leading projects! 

Managing projects can be challenging, especially if they span multiple divisions, time zones and even countries. Done wrong, it can destroy careers (or your company!). Done right, it can garner you a 'seat at the table.' From global outsourcing to rolling out an ERP system to leading change management initiatives, the HR executive has the unique opportunity to spearhead projects that can directly affect the company's bottom line. To do so though requires your project management skills to be in peak performance and constantly at the ready. This highly interactive session will help you be prepared to lead by providing in-depth step-by-step instructions on how to plan for success, manage and execute and deliver results all while meeting budget.
