How to Lead Your Project Team To Breakthrough Results - Without Losing Your Soul
Project management isn’t easy. Manager's face aggressive goals and often drive their teams to burn out trying to deliver. Or, employees seek connection and support, so managers focus on relationships and fail to make the numbers. The fallout is stress, frustration, and disengagement, and not just among team members: two-thirds of managers report being disengaged.
Winning Well is a project manager's lifeline for getting the results they need while keeping employees (and themselves) energized and motivated. Filled with humor, straight talk, and hard-won truths, this inspiring and highly interactive program delivers principles and practices to galvanize your team in positive and productive ways.
Also, if you need headshots or bios or anything, all that can be found here.

How do you prove you've got the project under control and buy yourself some time to deliver? In this program, you'll get proven techniques to help you build a dynamic and truthful story, build deeper trust in your approach, and give key stakeholders the data they need to calm the biggest skeptic and cultivate their support.
