Programme, Project and Transformation Managers who:
Aspire to get or currently manage a long term project that is complex and challenging
Are managing both a project and an in-house team, who want the team to deliver and be proactive and stakeholder-focused
Are problem solvers and not risk adverse
Meet with resistance to delivering long term change
Do not have a communications practitioner on the team and want to understand what best practices look like
Come in to deliver a project but no-one can tell them why, or the difference it will make for the business
Don’t have budget for a full-time communication professional to manage information flows
Does this sound like you? YES - THEN YOU NEED TO READ THIS GUIDE…
Who Is The Guide Not For?
Project managers who believe they are only required to deliver technology and that behaviour change will then follow naturally
People who are unwilling to step out of their comfort zones to deliver the best possible solution for their organisation
Managers who believe end users will just do what they are told and there is no need to spend time motivating and persuading them
Project teams with an all-singing, all-dancing communication plan and the budget for a full-time expert to implement it
Leaders who believe communication with stakeholders can be ad hoc when they and the team have time and the inclination
Managers who believe the project team does not need to win the respect of end users, leaders and other stakeholders
Managers who are not frustrated by the every day pain points of missed milestones, micro-management, repeated mistakes and conflict
Managers who are not worried by disengagement, low motivation and high turnover in their project team and the end user teams they are working with
Does this sound like you? YES - THEN THIS GUIDE IS NOT FOR YOU…
“If you always deliver on time and to budget, have all the leadership support you want
and need, a highly motivated project team and end users who are open to
changing the ways they work, then you are a communications maestro.
You already know how to explain change effectively.
But if you have a little niggle of doubt, then let my guide fill the gap with practical knowledge you and your team can use each and every day.” Jo Ann Sweeney
