Join us for the next Project Management Night Out seminar at Hood College. This event costs $20 per person and qualifies for 1 PDU (Power Skills). Heavy hors d’oeuvres will be served during the networking hour preceding the seminar, which will start at 7 p.m.

Topic

You need to explain what happened to cause the delay. Your team has gone above and beyond the call of duty, and you want proper recognition. You’re trying to sell the new approach when no one really wants to change. What you really need is a good story. Everyone is a storyteller. Some people are just better at it than others. Join the “Best of the Best in Project Management” (2019, PMI Global), Carl Pritchard, as he weaves the story of you as a better business storyteller. Carl will focus on making stories shorter, more engaging, and longer lasting to support your efforts to convey messages and sell ideas. He’ll point out the fatal In partnership with flaws for many storytellers and focus in on your ability to control the clock and the environment around you (live and virtually). You’ll walk out with sources for stories in hand, building your repertoire for your next meeting, training, one-on-one, or other engagement.
