Making a Difference Transforming Leading Adding Value Sponsored by

Welcome to the PMI

South Florida Chapter’s

Professional Development Day 2009!

Thanks for being a part of the 2009 Professional Development Day!

Congratulations! During these tough times, the best investment you can do is in your professional development and attending this seminar is a living proof that you are really committed to yourself. The portfolio of programs and projects defined by the Board of Directors in 2009 works around the theme of “Creating value through a global leadership culture” and our annual PDD is always the best venue to give you an opportunity to a) acquire/refine your knowledge and skills by attending sessions delivered by recognized speakers in our industry, b) to network with your colleagues, c) to talk with local and global partners to understand the range of solutions and tools that are available to help you provide value in any project and finally d) to talk with my fellow board members and understand what we are doing and how to get involved in any capacity you may have (as a volunteer, as a practitioner or as a partner). I was looking for the best way to express how pleased we are for having you here and to be honest I was not being succesful unti I found a story in the blog of a worldwide recognized author that I think is the perfect way to make visible our unspoken words. Valuing one’s companion A warrior knows that his finest masters are the people with whom he shares the battlefield. Asking for advice is dangerous. Giving advice is even more of a risk. When he needs help, he tries to see how his friends resolve - or fail to resolve their problems. If he seeks inspiration, he reads on the lips of his neighbor, the words his guardian angel wishes to impart to him. When he is tired or lonely, he does not dream of distant men or women; he seeks those by his side, and shares his pain or necessity for comfort - with pleasure and without guilt. A warrior knows that the most distant star in the Universe manifest itsefls in the world around him. Paulo Coelho, www.warriorofthelight.com

I sincerely hope you realize that you are not alone in your quest for excellence and that all of us (hundreds around you while you read this booklet and several thousands more around the world) are working really hard on the future of your profession and our business community. Let’s ensure that after this day, you have really made a difference in your life and will be able to add value by transforming and leading the global portfolio that is waiting for us all.

Ricardo Triana, PMP President

SPEAKERS AND SESSIONS

The Process & Persona of Effective Leadership Steve Hegele 9:45 to 10:45 and 2:30 to 3:45

It’s been said that you “Lead people and Manage processes,” you “Lead from the front and Manage from the back,” and, “Leadership tends to be more emotional and management tends to be more intellectual.” This may explain why so many project managers struggle with project leadership! The duality of leading and managing at the same time is an ongoing challenge for many people in all management positions, but it is especially challenging for project managers due to the fact that they are often asked to influence others without direct authority. In this presentation we will discuss critical dynamics to this important and frustrating situation such as when it is appropriate to take the time and effort necessary to build commitment and when compliance is all that is needed. This session will be presented in an interactive format and is appropriate for all levels of project management experience.

Team Building and Influencing Skills for Leaders Frank Saladis, PMP 9:45 to 10:45 and 2:30 to 3:45

This presentation is designed to provide participants with an opportunity to examine and strengthen personal influencing skills, build more effective communication skills and develop plans to assist in forming a high performance team. The presentation is highly interactive and participative and is designed to increase awareness about how people are influenced, provide information about developing a stronger and more effective and authentic leadership style, and provide techniques that will help to coach, mentor, and develop team members who are mutually supportive and committed to common objectives. This session will be presented with a combination of lecture and interactive exercises and is appropriate for intermediate level of project management experience.

As one of last year’s most popular PDD speakers, Rick returns this year with a brand new approach to Risk Management. Everyone understands the importance of Risk Management, yet it is one of the most misunderstood and underutilized tools in project management. Furthermore, many of the tools either add to the confusion or provide little actionable detail to assist in the management of the project. Rick’s session will teach how to create a real, relevant, and actionable risk assessment that will provide solid data to support contingencies to ensure project success.
