PRESENTATION DESCRIPTION

This course gives you the skills to achieve difficult personal and professional projects and goals. It doesn’t matter whether it’s to obtain a professional certification or implement a global system. The same techniques were used to successfully implement multi-million dollar, international projects and to conquer the exotic Great Wall of China and the brutally cold Antarctica 26.2-mile marathons. The projects were on time, within budget, and to specifications.

The skills and agility used to navigate through the rocky, slippery, and uneven Great Wall’s 3,600 steps were applied to managing a 3,600-task project plan. Likewise, the same preparation for addressing the unpredictable, sub-freezing Antarctica weather was applied to managing the “known unknowns” and “unknown unknowns” during major projects. You’ll learn how to manage (and even reduce) the stress of managing projects, while getting more from your staff and preventing employee turnover.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN FROM THE PRESENTATION

You’ll learn how to

  • Establish achievable goals.

  • Motivate yourself and your team members.

  • Manage fear and move outside of the comfort zone.

  • Embrace and manage risk.

  • Gain support for your plan.

  • Address unplanned events (the “known unknowns” and “unknown unknowns”).

  • Manage the negative, victim mentality.

  • Better execute your plan.

PRESENTATION CUSTOMIZATION

Through client interviews, Reed learns about your organization's challenges and goals. He then weaves that learning throughout his presentation, masterfully personalizing the experience for each audience member. The presentation includes breath-taking photos from the Great Wall of China, Antarctica, and Argentina marathons.

Reed has published articles, made presentations, and taught collegiate classes about information technology, project management, business management, accounting, and income taxes. He combines these academic experiences, your objectives, his 25 years in global IT project management, and long distance running strategies to develop presentations about

  • Leadership

  • Coping with Change & Risk

  • Empowerment Skills

  • Project Management

  • Adventure

  • Personal and Professional Growth

  • Overcoming Adversity

While sharing from his heart with humor and passion, Reed challenges his audience to think differently - to learn from failures, to learn the art of thriving instead of surviving, to address fears, and to define themselves while living life with a new found passion. The presentation may incorporate the GOMOPLEXTM concept.
