Thinking Better Together Nan Gesche MA, CSP

In high-pressure project environments, fast decisions can feel efficient — but they often create rework and misalignment. This session introduces a practical approach to shared, structured thinking that helps teams surface assumptions, widen perspective, and improve decision durabability. Learn how small shifts in how you think together can reduce risk, improve stakeholder alignment, and strengthen implementation.

 

The Deliberate Disruptor: Why Elite Organizations Institutionalize Skepticism Jim Benvie, PMP

In today's high-stakes business environment, conventional thinking may be your greatest vulnerability. While organizations value consensus and alignment, these same qualities often lead to costly blind spots, missed opportunities, and avoidable mistakes.

What if your organization's competitive edge lies in systematically challenging your own assumptions?

Join Jim Benvie, "The History PM," as he reveals why today's elite organizations are deliberately institutionalizing scepticism as a strategic advantage. Drawing from historical case studies and

contemporary business examples, Jim demonstrates how structured challenge transforms decision quality and exposes hidden risks before they become costly missteps.
