Special Lecture - Mr. Paul Hodgkins
Legacy, Leadership and Change
Mr. Paul Hodgkins
Former Executive Director of Paul Hodgkins Project Consultancy
Abstract:
Projects are undertaken by people, for people, through people. Now more than ever, leadership in projects can make the difference between a successful or unsuccessful result. But leadership, just as projects, is not static and neither should a project manager be. Their ability to adapt their leadership style to the people and project situations they face can often be the difference that makes the difference. This workshop will touch on what is meant by situational leadership and how leadership relates to legacy and change. It will help to understand the role our values and mind-set can have and it will position through the 'five E's, the role leadership plays in change..
