Self-Leadership for Project Managers: A Non-Negotiable Power Skill

Start the year by leading the most important person on your team: yourself.

Project life is demanding: shifting priorities, complex stakeholders, and limited authority. This 90-minute webcast introduces four pillars of self-leadership: self-awareness, self-monitoring, self-discipline, and self-appreciation—so project managers can manage their energy, make better decisions, strengthen relationships, and create cohesive, resilient teams that deliver sustainable results.

In a world of constant change, the ability to lead oneself is not just a luxury—it’s a non-negotiable survival skill. This session dives deep into the concept of Self-Leadership, teaching you how to harness self-discipline, accountability, and resilience to drive project success. You will learn to navigate pressure with grace, set the tone for your team, and take ownership of your professional trajectory.

Key Takeaway: Transform from a manager of tasks into a master of your own performance.
