These efforts are ineffectual\, often lacking any consistent standards or a cohesive long-term talent management strategy. For years\, we have seen in the value\, mission\, and vision statements of many organizations the words “people first.”\n\nYet when you have a conversation with the average employee\, he or she often does not feel as if he or she is first at all. Today\, Mr. Michael Taylor and Ms. Adrienne Somerville will offer the establishment of a new standard of ensuring employees\, at all levels\, know they represent the organization’s most valuable resource: its talent! In essence\, people are the bedrock of all organizations\, upon which talent management and all other company enablers rests. Mr. Taylor and Ms. Somerville will share the top talent management concepts\, and encourage\nparticipants like you to take the necessary action to spearhead your professional talent management initiative for your individual gain\, while promoting talent management\nthroughout your company for its organizational gain.Lastly\, Michael and Adrienne will also convey the need to not only understand talent\nmanagement but the data and its organizational value. They will ensure PMI MC Chapter\nparticipants understand the importance of collecting data about their workforce\, as it is the foundation regarding the knowledge\, skills and abilities of workforce members. Whether this is your first talent management event or you are a seasoned talent management professional\, you will find keys to help you design\, develop\, and deploy a rewarding and successful talent management career and/or program.\n\nPresenters Bio:  \nMs. Adrienne Somerville: As NAVAIR’s first Talent Management Program Manager\, Adrienne designed\, developed and deployed the integrated approach to workforce skills planning and management: increasing flexibility and agility to Department of Defense\, Navy and NAVAIR requirements; nationally synchronizing a variety of functional and organizational skill efforts; and providing the total workforce a clear\, consistent skill-based career roadmap and\ndevelopmental framework that identified skill gaps and better utilized desired skills to target training resources and meet program requirements.\n\nAdditionally\, Adrienne has over 13+ years expertise in Talent Management and Leadership Development that stems from her Navy career and continues now simultaneously with her own consulting groups\, Talent & Technical Solutions Corporation (TTSC) and Somerville Consulting Group LLC (SCG)\, where Adrienne serves as the CEO of both companies.\n\nMs. Somerville is an Amazon International Best Selling Author of Wingspan (her debuting talent management book)\, accolades include being named the 2021 Project Opportunity Pitch Competition winner\, Career Communications Women of Color 2020 President’s Award winner and the Career Communications Women of Color 2011 Managerial Award winner.\n\nMr. Michael Taylor:\nMichael currently cultivates a high performing workforce by designing and delivering relevant and innovative development programs that engage individuals and teams at all levels of the organization. Michael has more than 20 years of professional experience in\, change management\, mentorship\, organizational development\, and strategic planning working in the federal government sector.

They do this by helping individuals with professional development\, leadership coaching\, and finding their best career fit for a successful and satisfying career and life. In addition\, they diagnose team dysfunction and creating the right behavioral composition teams for high-performance in specific contexts\, e.g.\, business change\, digital transformations\, strategy execution.\n\n\n\n\nGeraldine (Geri) is a former PMO executive.  She holds a B.A. in Political Science and a Master’s Certificate in Information Technology Project Management from George Washington University\, certifications in Leadership Coaching for Organizational Performance\, Neuroscience of Change Coaching\, Prosci Change Management\, SuccessFinder business level practitioner\, PMI’s Project Management Professional (PMP) and Agile CSM.\n\n\n\n________________\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGermaine’s work has focused on workforce design\, succession planning\, team-based resourcing\, and organizational performance assessment and improvement in the nuclear energy\, workers’ compensation\, and healthcare sectors. With degrees in Business Administration and Industrial Relations\, complemented by continuing studies in Integral Psychology and Organization Development\, she brings a unique perspective to developing vibrant and effective human systems: the intelligent\, adaptive\, and creative dimension of every organization.\n\n\n\nGermaine has pioneered new approaches to integrating human and organizational factors into designing and implementing process-based integrated management systems in high-reliability settings. She has published her ground-breaking approaches to building resilient organizations in a series of White Papers and a handbook\, Process-based Management Systems for High-Reliability Organizations. Co-authored with John Paciga Ph.D.\, this handbook provides whole system organizational designers and systemic change agents step-by-step guidance on applying her approaches to aligning meaning\, propensities\, and systems in support of high performance.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresenters’ Websites:\n\n\n\n\n\nwww.predictivepotential.com\n\n\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/germaine-watts-9a3b461a/\n\n\nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/geraldinecanty/\n\n\n\nPresentation Abstract:\n\n\n\n\nCreating high-performing project teams has never been more important! From understanding what makes individuals ‘tick’ to helping groups excel\, the onus is on leaders to bring the insight\, emotional intelligence\, and creativity needed to make high performance happen. Fortunately\, the science of behavioral DNA is here to help. Rather than relying on old formulas like – “forming\, storming\, norming\, and performing” – to understand what is going on\, leaders can now use the power of predictive behavioral analytics to diagnose team challenges\, leverage team strengths\, and develop strategies to compensate for team blind spots.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLEARNING OBJECTIVES:\n\n\nKey things the audience will be learning through participating in the session: \n\n\n\n1) The 8 most important team ‘functionalities’ that support this new reality\,\n\n\n2) What specific natural behavioral competencies make each functionality possible\n\n\n3) What the steps involved are in assessing whether a team has what it needs to excel in the functionalities\n\n\n\n4) When to use conscious collaboration\, team member development\, and team redesign to solve chronic team performance issues \n\n\n\n\n\n\n Location:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVirtual (Zoom Conference Link:  Sent out Morning of Meeting – Wed 6 Oct 2021) \nSimulcast held at Normandie Farm Restaurant in Potomac (See In-Person Dinner Registration) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSCHEDULE OF EVENTS \nSocial Hour/Registration Opens @ 5:45pm \nDinner Service Begins @ 6:30pm \nZoom Room Opens @ 7:15pm \nChapter Business Remarks @ 7:30pm \nMs. Canty & Ms. Watts’s Presentation w/ Q&A to follow – 7:40pm \n\nProgram concludes No Later Than @ 9:00pm\n\nNOTICE: The webinar will be recorded and available for viewing and PDU Self-Reporting.

SUMMARY:BoldPM: 5 Steps for Greater Business Agility
DESCRIPTION:Last year’s pandemic caused havoc for many product-centric organizations. In the face of unprecedented market shifts\, exponentially changing buyer behavior\, reduced team capacity\, and new requirements for remote working\, we discuss how business executives and leaders require an ever-increasing velocity and scale of analysis in terms of processing and access to accelerate innovation and forge new paths for their organizations to remain relevant. \nThe best response is to enhance organizational agility to become more nimble\, flexible and adaptable. More than simply a single process or methodology\, organizational agility is the ability to: \n\nAdjust strategies on a continuous basis\nEmpower employees to make key decisions on challenging projects\nRespond to ambiguity and uncertainty with flexibility and speed\nView unanticipated change as an opportunity for transformation\n\nYou’ll learn: \n\nWhy product-centric organizations must quickly evolve and grow\nWhat challenges and issues plague most product-centric organizations\nWhat opportunities and predictions to watch for beyond 2021\nPitfalls to avoid\n\nHector Del Castillo\, Chief Product Officer of BoldPM\, helps you understand the most significant challenges\, trends\, opportunities and advantages to enhancing business agility in your organization.
