PMIQ May Event: Conflict Management for Project Managers

iCal

In an ideal world, the Project Manager would have the final say, and everyone would fall into place and follow our expert direction. Rarely is this the way things happen in the real world. A large part of our role as PMs is to manage people, their expectations and egos, conflicting priorities along with limited resources. Conflict situations arise almost on a daily basis, and people look to us and follow our lead in seeking resolution. “Conflict is an issue that will inevitably arise in any grouping of individuals, regardless of the context. One of the most important and difficult aspects of a project manager’s job is to identify and resolve these conflicts because even the smallest argument can stop a promising project in its tracks”. (www.forbes.com) John Mulvey is a certified NLP practitioner and professional speaker.
