The Innovator's Mindset What makes a person an innovator? The key differentiator is their mindset. Practicing certain skills can improve your innovative possibilities. Innovators build on their area of expertise; they are prepared. They often have a deep understanding of a field - but this does not confine their thinking - it provides a strong foundation to build, experiment, and learn. They start with a 'blank slate', observing, curious, questioning, digging deeper, broadening horizons, seeking diverse intersections, seeing the possibilities. Extreme paradigm shifts occur when diverse intersections occur serendipitously, resulting in discovery and value creation. The future is unpredictable; however, we can be prepared for a future unlike today by having an innovator's mindset. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.

Servant Leadership Servant Leadership is focused on serving your team, rather than your team serving you. Out of serving one's team, a desire to lead is manifest. Servant Leadership is radically different than when the leader is leading first. When the focus is on leading first, it is very easy to use your power, your title (role in the hierarchy), or the fact that you were put in charge as the basis of your actions. When we employ servant leadership, we support our team as a whole, and its individual members, in their growth and development. We ensure that their highest needs are being met through our support and service. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.

Dynamic Stakeholder Engagement Stakeholder engagement is one of the most important success criteria of any project or change initiative, yet it is often subsidiary to other processes or Participantd downward to managers and staff. Worse yet, it can be set up as a step-by-step, mechanical or uni-directional push communication process. Engaging stakeholders is a planned and highly adaptive organic process that seeks to touch each individual impacted by the change.

The New Normal in Project Management: It's All About the Benefits For many organizations traditional project management is dead. Measuring project success based solely on the triple constraints ignores what's most important about a project: the benefits and value the project should deliver. In this new normal, where organizations rely on project managers to deliver value, not just deliverables, we need better planning, knowledge of change management practices, and most importantly, ways to collaborate with our business partners to make sure we get the job done correctly. LeRoy will provide his insight into the best ways organizations and project managers can, and should, work together to make it all happen.

James Webb Space Telescope - Leading Large Complex Global Projects What you will Learn: The James Webb Space Telescope will explore every phase of cosmic history - from within our solar system to the most distant observable galaxies in the early universe, and everything in between. Webb will reveal new and unexpected discoveries, and help humankind understand the origins of the universe and our place in it. This mission, scheduled for a December 18, 2021 launch, is a collaboration of NASA, the European Space Agency and Canadian Space Agency. We discuss the motivating science questions that required the development of the observatory, highlight the technologies, and project management challenges and lessons learned encountered during the development of this large complex global project. The James Webb Space Telescope is arguably an unparalleled engineering and technological feat, we explore the critical role of project management in making the world's largest space telescope a success. As NASA and the space industry are moving swiftly to new approaches, new systems, and far more commercial exploration (often referred to as 'new space') than previously imagined. We also explore how acquisition and project management are evolving towards that future. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.
