Managing Challenging Stakeholders - CROSSING THE HUMAN CHASM

Project Stakeholder Management is a NEW KNOWLEDGE AREA found in the latest version of PMI Guide to Project Management
Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide 5th Edition). It presents clearly the processes in managing stakeholders.
But good processes require good judgment and skillful execution. In the real world project managers are faced with multiple
challenges from stakeholders, and it seems like there is this huge chasm that divides one person from the next. Most of the
divide is not just between people but often there is a great chasm with the Mental Models within a person’s mind.
If you have these challenges in your projects where there are gaps between the various stakeholders that can jeopardize
your project, come to this workshop and explore various approaches to understanding more about the chasm that creates
challenges within and between persons. Practice skills in crossing the human chasm and learn to manage your challenging
stakeholders better.
