The Charleston Chapter of PMI is proud to host
Professional Development Day 2009
"Adapting Today for the Challenges of Tomorrow"
Featuring
Dr. Jerry Brightman, Ph.D.
President, The Leadership Group
"To compliment the theme of the day, Dr. Brightman will be addressing key skills and methodologies that will allow project managers to best prepare for a future we know very little about. To succeed tomorrow, project managers must be far more adaptive and flexible than they are today. They need to expand, and in some cases, change their thinking to encompass such essentials as personal mastery, leadership transformation, systems thinking, team learning, creativity and innovation. An outline of Dr. Brightman's portion of the program includes the following modules:
1. The leaders' necessary new work today to be successful tomorrow
2. Differentiating project leadership from project management
3. The importance of self-awareness in preparing for the future
4. Seeing wholes - the need to think systemically in a complex world
5. Not just team-building, but team learning
6. Becoming more creative and innovative to prepare for an uncertain future"
