How to create a team purpose statement in three steps (and why)Jan Terkelsen
It’s fair to say that most organisations have a Purpose Statement, Mission Statement or something that determines the company's’ scope of operations and direction. However, though they need just as much clarity and direction (or perhaps more!), it’s rare that individual teams within organisations have their own distinct Purpose Statements.

Traditional vs Lean Portfolio Management, Agile PMO & OrganisationsBarry O'Reilly
This deck showcases how the future can look for organisations as they attempt to scale up agile and lean practices and principles across the entire organisation.
Regardless if we have entered to do project/programme/portfolio work, once onsite I find it is a great way to introduce the wider organisation to the ideas that we use to deliver and how they can support all areas and activities in the organisation.
Key concepts;
- How traditional PMO and organisation are setup
- Legacy mindset for are alive and still driving the majority of portfolio/organisation behaviours
- Comparisons of traditional and agile/lean mindsets
- Principles of agile/lean portfolio/organisation management
- Organisational structure
- Annual vs Incremental funding (Beyond Budgeting)
- Limiting Work in Progress i.e. its only matters how many projects you finish, not start.
- Managing and visualising capability
- Coping with portfolio complexity through experimentation and validated learning
- Removing the concept of projects and focusing on continuous delivery of value

Prince2 by design is a process based approach to project delivery and that means projects progress through the processes in a linear way. In this presentation I cover the objectives and activities of each of the 7 Processes. I will take each process in turn and by the end of this presentation you should have a very good overview of the 7 Processes of Prince2. By having this good overview will help you with the Prince2 exam as you will understand what happens and when on the project. With the exam being open book you will be able to look up the detail if and when you need it.
The 7 Processes of Prince2 are:
Starting up a Project
Directing a Project
Initiating a Project
Controlling a Stage
Managing Product Delivery
Managing a Stage Boundary
Closing a Project
Dr Meredith Belbin studied team-work for many years, and he famously observed that people in teams tend to assume different "team roles." He defined a team role as "a tendency to behave, contribute and interrelate with others in a particular way" and named nine such team roles that underlie team success.
How is it possible that a seemingly highly skilled team struggle to meet business deadlines whilst a team of average skilled professionals consistently deliver value to their client? Do the skills of the team members have any outcome on the delivery of the team? Of course they do, but without the secret sauce even the best team will fail. The uncomfortable truth is that human beings do not do ANYTHING unless they are sufficiently motivated to do so, despite what they may say they will do. Unfortunately, in most organisations, people learn to say what their managers want to hear and then still proceed to do the opposite. Why do people do this? In this talk we will explore how an Agile approach makes average teams become great teams through the injection of one vital ingredient: motivation. We will explore how an Agile approach gets people in all kinds of industries (not only developers!) become motivated to be successful without them even realizing it. The key principles of Agile that, probably coincidently, addresses the fundamentals of human motivation, will be uncovered.

APM event hosted by the North West Branch on 5 December 2023.
Speaker: Katie Demain, Global Partner and Change Expert, iOpener Institute
There is compelling evidence that it pays to invest in your employees’ happiness. Research findings are clear that happier employees are more productive, which improves your bottom line. Your happiest employees are 65% more energised at work, spend twice as much time on-task, and intend to stay in their job 4 times longer, according to iOpener Institute. This event was held on 5 December 2023.
But what does being happy at work actually mean? Why is happiness considered the antidote to poor performance? Isn’t happiness just a fuzzy concept? Should workforce happiness be on your agenda in the current tough economic climate? What does making happy employees mean in real terms for business leaders and managers?
This event will bring participants up to speed with all aspects behind workforce happiness – its theory, its value and its challenges – for managers, teams and individuals. And to present practical solutions that you’ll be able to implement straight away with your teams.

Reference Class Forecasting - useful method, or random number generator? webinarAPMDonotuse
APM Webinar hosted by the North West Branch on 18 October 2023.
Speaker: Dr Michala Techau
Addressing the why, when, and how to use Reference Class Forecasting (RCF) as a method to predict uncertainty in major project planning and delivery. The key reason behind cost and schedule overrun is underestimation of risks, and the root causes of underestimation are optimism and political bias. This webinar was held on Wednesday 18 October 2023.
https://youtu.be/Shl5r1wTzxc
https://www.apm.org.uk/news/reference-class-forecasting-useful-method-or-random-number-generator-webinar/
Oxford Global Projects has vast experience of working on the risk assessment of complex and uncertain major capital projects. Our research shows that these projects are more likely to experience overruns in time and cost than underruns, and that the potential magnitude of overruns is likely to be greater than the magnitude of underruns.
Thus, for large capital projects, the norm is over budget, over time, under benefits, over and over again, The founder of OGP, Professor Bent Flyvbjerg, has named this the “iron law of megaprojects” - and we argue that it is crucial to build a strong evidence base to de-bias cost, schedule, and benefit estimates to derive clear, actionable recommendations for de-risking capital project delivery.
RCF is a method for systematically taking an outside-view on planned actions. The method is used to make explicit, empirically based adjustments to estimates that prevent estimation biases such as optimism bias. To be accurate, these adjustments should be based on data from past and similar projects calibrated for the unique characteristics of the project at hand.
The basic idea of RCF is that we answer the questions:
What was the actual cost and schedule performance of past similar projects?
How risky were they in terms of how much their cost and schedule changed in comparison to their original estimates?
How do the cost and schedule performance of past relevant projects compare to your project, and what is your project’s risk of overrun?
What contingency is required to provide the level of certainty you require that your project will not overrun?
The talk highlighted typical misconceptions about RCF, and put them to bed. Challenges, causes, and cures for major project performance will be illustrated with case studies from the transport, energy, and the built environment sectors. The talk concluded with a Q&A session and an open discussion on how RCF is potentially more important than ever, in relation to addressing our impact on the environment.

Navigating Difficult Conversations on Projects WebinarAPMDonotuse
APM webinar hosted the South East Branch on 27 September 2023.
Speaker: Marion Thomas
This Webinar explored the art of engaging in difficult conversations, equipped project leaders with practical strategies and insights that align with the principles and practices advocated by the APM Body of Knowledge. Marion Thomas, experienced PM, speaker, certified coach, ChPP mentor, and trainer in leadership, led this discussion.
We explored how to engage in those challenging conversations that are often necessary for project success whilst also protecting ourselves professionally.
As project leaders, we understand the importance of effective communication and how it can significantly impact project success. However, sometimes, we find ourselves faced with challenging conversations that require finesse and skill to handle. In this talk, we delved into the art of engaging in difficult discussions while also safeguarding our professional integrity.
Throughout the project lifecycle, project leaders often encounter situations where they must initiate or participate in tough conversations with various stakeholders, customers, team members, and other involved parties. These conversations may range from addressing conflicts and disputes to becoming the messenger of undesirable news that can expose us to potential backlash. On the other hand, some project leaders may intentionally introduce a level of non-hostile positive conflict to encourage innovative thinking and creativity within the project.
In this engaging session, we provided valuable insights and actionable strategies to empower project leaders to navigate such challenging conversations effectively. Our expert speakers shared practical tips on how to approach these situations with confidence, ensuring the best possible outcomes for both the project and our colleagues.

Inclusive Impact: How to make sure disability isn’t a barrier in your project...APMDonotuse
APM webinar hosted by Yorkshire and North Lincolnshire Branch on 21 September 2023.
Speaker - Kayleigh Chambers, NSPCC - Linkedin
According to Scope, approximately 23% of working age adults have some form of disability. This webinar was held on 21 September 2023.
According to the British Dyslexia Association, up to 15% of the adult population may have dyslexia or another Specific Learning Difficulty.
This means that it is highly likely in our projects we are working with or for someone who is neurodivergent or has a disability.
By making small changes to our practice we can increase the likelihood of project success by enabling all stakeholders to contribute their full potential.
Content covered:

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel.

3. Once upon a time, in a far away land
(Poole, Dorset actually),
in the global financial castle of a
bank with an eagle logo,
there worked a young, intelligent,
good-looking man.
4. One day, he passed his
project management
exams, and thought he
would change the world
for the better.
5. Based on what he
had been taught,
he created KPIs to
measure how well the
project he led was
going.
6. He failed.
His project overran, the
budget was blown, there
were many errors in the
product…
and he destroyed his team.
