Join us for “Best Projects Ever”

The Secrets of Professional Crisis Management

 


 

Our popular next level event-series showcasing another “Best Project Ever”:

City of Cape Town Disaster Manager Greg Pillay on:

The Secrets of Professional Crisis Management

 

In the media we regularly come across reports on famous crisis projects. However, we seldom get to hear about the success stories – even though we know that one can learn and copy far more from those successes and their “best practices” than from failures.

 

For our annual „Best Projects Ever“ Event we were able to win Greg Pillay – the head of the Disaster Risk Management Centre at the City of Cape Town – as our guest speaker.

As part of his daily job he and his team know how to master challenges many project and change managers wish they will not encounter but can take a lot of learning from. Join us for an interactive and informative talk and learn from this expert how:

  • to establish a high-performing organisation in the shortest possible time-frame
  • to coordinate large numbers of helpers and experts from vastly different backgrounds
  • to clarify roles and responsibilities under pressure
  • efficient communication looks like
  • differing perspectives and conflicts between experts are being dealt with

Spend the morning with us and take a deep dive into crisis management:

  • Engage with Greg and find out how he manages all kind of crisis situations in order to unveil useful secrets for project and change managers.
  • Participate in a lively discussion and leverage on lessons learned
  • Leave with practical tips on how to manage a potential future crisis
  • Share experiences with other project and change managers
