Get the Lawyers Out of the Way: Project Managing Negotiations Through Execution 

Erin will provide insights on the value of including the project management team at the table alongside the lawyers at the negotiating table. She will discuss the importance of transparent and consistent communications during project execution to help minimize legal risks and build the other team's trust. Finally, she will discuss how maintenance of accurate and up-to-date documentation during the project can further limit claims raised during Go-Live.

Session 2

Modern Work Manifesto

Work is broken. We point to the pandemic as the cause, but the reality is work was broken far before we all learned to work from home. To fix work we need to fundamentally change the way we approach it…we need something to rally us together…we need a manifesto! During this hands-on workshop we’ll dive into the principles that shape the Modern Work Manifesto, such as flow and adaptability. Discover how to implement the manifesto in your work by incorporating three practical techniques that you can begin applying as early as tomorrow. Viva la Modern Work!
