The presenter, Peter de Jager, is no stranger to PMI.
Over the past decade he's presented several times each
to more than 100 PMI chapters worldwide from
Christchurch, New Zealand to Limerick, Ireland - from
Costa Rica to Croatia and most points between. He has a
well-earned global reputation as a provocative,
entertaining and insightful speaker.
He has a finely honed talent for inciting his audiences
to think differently about what they thought they
already knew.
He's presented to Canadian PMI audiences more than a
dozen times to rave reviews and it's always a pleasure
to have him back.
His presentations are not too PMI focused, providing you
a wonderful opportunity to invite your peers and
associates to a pleasant and informative evening.

Presentation synopsis |
In every
country, not just in Canada, the ongoing recession is
beginning to have a toll on people's optimism. Decreased
budgets, sometimes decreased headcounts, but no decrease
in expected productivity - if anything? There's growing
pressure to produce significantly more with
significantly less. How individual organizations will
respond to these pressures will vary greatly from one
organization to the next, but individuals will respond
to this loss of control with less variation.
There are well defined Change Process Models which can
predict how we respond to Change and that provides us,
if we're paying attention, a set of guidelines for
charting our course out of this mess.
This presentation will consist of three sections.
First.
An overview of some of the myths and realities of how
individuals respond to various types of change. Deciding
to quit a job, is not the same as being forced to leave
a job. Getting married is far more
complicated than using a new Project Management process
- yet we'll embrace one and resist the other. Why do we
resist some types of Change, and embrace other, more
complicated/complex Change?
Next. An
exploration of at least one, possibly two, Change
Process Models. How, and why do they seem to differ from
each other? What do they have in common? What are the
inherent flaws of ANY Human
Behavioural Model and how are these psychological tools
best used in an organizational setting?
Finally. We all know that to bring a Change about as
smoothly as possible, the key is communications.
Communicate! Communicate! Communicate! is the cry... yet
what exactly must we communicate? Not
surprisingly, there are a handful of questions which we
must strive to answer, or have answered for us, when we
embark on any Change. This session will close with Seven
Questions that must be the foundation of any Change
Initiative
