How to Get in Front of Conflict Before it Gets in Front of You When the Marine Corps plots a critical incident on a timeline going from left to right, the conflict itself is referred to as 'bang.' What happens to the right of that on the timeline is where the fighting begins; where you WANT to be is on the left - where preparation and enhanced observation skills can combine to help prevent the conflict from occurring. As project professionals, our trenches look a little different than those of the Marines, but our conflict timelines-and the skillsets that can get us in front of workplace conflict-are strikingly similar. In this presentation, we will explore many facets of conflict, including which types to stimulate and which types to minimize in order to keep your teams innovating and collaborating. Drawing on her experience working in conflict and post-conflict zones, Christa will provide insight into: recognizing physiological cues of discomfort; anticipating interpersonal conflict before it occurs; de-escalating emotional situations; mastering difficult conversations; and mediating interpersonal conflict to create a positive outcome. Translating critical scientific findings from an elite Marine Corps training program into the language of projects, she will share tools and techniques aimed to keep you and your projects well to the 'left of bang.'

What Great Executive Sponsors Do...and When! Numerous studies have shown that having an actively engaged executive sponsor is a key driver of project success-yet, many organizations do not assign sponsors to projects, and when they do, the results aren't what they hoped or expected. Most sponsors want to be effective but they simply don't know how because they've never been trained. J. LeRoy Ward takes the mystery out of sponsorship by describing exactly what a sponsor should do (and when during the project life-cycle) to capitalize on this powerful role and its ability to boost the chances of project success.
