A Five-Step Plan for Project Managers

During a crisis, organizations must act quickly, and as a project manager, it can be tempting to bypass the foundational techniques that have guided your past successes. However, maintaining structure and discipline is more important than ever in high-pressure situations. In our free webinar, we’ll explore five often-overlooked but essential responses that every project manager should consider when navigating a crisis. These practices will help you stay grounded and keep your project aligned with both immediate needs and long-term goals.

You’ll learn how to plan ahead and incorporate crises into your risk register, and how to ensure contingency plans are in sync with your organization's overall objectives. We’ll also cover the value of benchmarking with others, engaging critical partners and stakeholders—including those tied to procurement—and the importance of consistent, two-way communication. Finally, we’ll emphasize the need for holding regular review cycles throughout and after the crisis to adapt, improve, and recover effectively.
