Overview

A critical component for a Project Manager’s success is oftentimes their ability to build and sustain a high performing team. To make matters more difficult most PMs don’t have the benefit of traditional managerial authority over these resources, and the dynamics can often be quite difficult to manage. In this engaging presentation participants will learn about the “Thoroughbred Style” of management and why it’s oftentimes the secret to leading a high performing team. We will also explore specific techniques for managing team conflict, building a solid team infrastructure, influencing without authority, encouraging effective and productive team communications, and maintaining high morale on the team.
