HAVE YOU
EVER FELT LIKE
A FAILURE?
1. Often
2. Sometimes
3. Rarely
4. Who me?! I’m perfect

SO, YOU’VE MESSED UP!
You’re human and we all do.
What matters is, what next?
What do you choose to tell yourself?

“Whether you think you can or
whether you think you can't,
you're right.”
– Henry Ford

A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE
Will this matter in time?
Will you tell your grandkids?
What do I want to tell them about how I dealt with
it?

A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE
Is what I’m saying to myself true?
Is it helpful?
What would you say to a friend in the same
situation?

A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE

SOS for Emotions by Lynn Clark
Telling Yourself the Truth by William Backus and Marie
Chapman

DON’T GIVE UP!
Life happens but it’s what you make of it
that matters.

• If you’re overwhelmed, get help.
• Companies are increasingly aware of
the impact of employee wellbeing on
performance and vice versa.
• It’s in your companies interest for you
to be at your best.
DON’T SUFFER IN SILENCE

SPEAK UP
• For yourself
• For others
• Be clear about your career goals

INVEST IN YOURSELF
Invest your time and money to forge
the career and life that you want to lead.

GETTING YOUR NEXT ROLE
• Get as much information as you can
before an interview.
• Contact them if it’s feasible.
• Interviews are a two-way process.
• Be aware of what you have to offer and
how the role aligns with your goals.

NETWORKING
Preparation + Networking Opportunity

13% men didn’t apply for a job they
didn’t have all the qualifications for
because they didn’t want to put
themselves out if they were likely to
fail.
How many women said the same?

“There is just one thing that
makes your dreams impossible:
the fear of failure.”

We all want interfaces that feel human—where the content is friendly and everything flows right along. But being human isn’t just about being breezy. Every user who interacts with your site comes there with personal histories—with pain and problems, with past traumas or present crises. How can we take our users’ vulnerabilities, triggers, and touchy subjects into account when we don’t even know what they are? What would it mean to optimize not just for seamlessness, but for kindness? This talk will show you how clear intentions and compassionate communication can strengthen everything from form questions to headlines to site structures. http://2015.nuxconf.uk/speakers/sara-wachter-boettcher/

That’s often what we tell family, friends and peers when asked what we do. But is it really a fair description? It may well be our role title, but it probably doesn’t convey a lot of what we actually do. This presentation and discussion is about going beyond the frameworks, processes and stereotypes associated with project management and exploring the leadership roles we all in fact perform. “I provide leadership focused on delivering projects and change for organisations”

APM event hosted by the Midlands Network on 11 April 2024. Speaker: Carole Osterweil Data is power. AI changes everything. If the claims about both are true, how can we ensure we use data and AI well? And what does it mean for the very things which make us human - our feelings? In this workshop Carole will draw on material from her ground-breaking book, Neuroscience for Project Success: why people behave as they do to answer both questions. “We like to think our decision making is completely rational. However, once there's an element of uncertainty, conscious assessments are only part of the story. Two other inputs, both subconscious and driven by our innate need to survive, have a big impact. One, automatic reactions driven by cognitive biases, gets plenty of airtime. The other input, our raw visceral emotions might be scary to talk about and less understood - but that’s not a reason to pretend they don’t exist!” This interactive workshop will draw on material from Carole’s book, Neuroscience for Project Success: why people behave as they do, published by APM in 2022. You’ll come away with: a clear understanding of how the human brain works. a framework that: explains ‘why people behave as they do’. makes it easier to talk about feelings in a matter-of-fact way (so that they become part of your conscious data set) new insights into yourself and your projects in a world that’s often characterised by stress and disorder. Act on these insights and you’ll see the impact - on your teams and stakeholders, your decisions about how to use data and AI, and ultimately your project outcomes.

If AI changes everything – do feelings still matter?

Advancements that feel relatively recent are already becoming embedded into business-as-usual activity. AI is one such advancement; it is already being used and having real-world impacts across the project profession. To help P3M professionals understand the implications of this change, APM invited representatives from organisations that have introduced or are preparing to introduce AI into their project workstreams, to explain their approach and share their insight with fellow professionals. This webinar on explored how AI is currently being used in project and programme management, and how organisations are gearing up for its adoption.

Kai-Fu Lee predicted that AI would change the world more than anything in the history of humanity – even electricity. It would disrupt how we live and work, how we operate our businesses, the core products and services on offer and the way in which we build technology. However, in 2024 the impact of AI can no longer be discussed in future tense. With Microsoft copilot now publicly available, the change is already upon us. There is no consultation period or ‘unsubscribe’ button. Project management professionals are likely to be asked to manage AI projects - and we are expected to skilfully use AI in our daily work lives. While overwhelming, this is not the first time we’ve had to adapt. Sarah helps her audience sharpen their cutting-edge skills by answering: What do I need to know about AI right now? If I’m asked to work on an AI project, what techniques do I need to be successful? Where do I start my own learning journey to upskill and prepare? Sarah’s expertise in advanced agile and experience in highly regulated Finance environments give her a unique perspective into balancing governance with technical innovation. She uses her own experience building an AI solution in 2023 to share practical, widely applicable concepts in an “AI for project managers” 101 style session.
