Foster a Shared Understanding
� Everyone must work on the SAME project� Shared Understanding comes from:
� Common goals� Project expectation, values, assumptions� Known buy-in and commitment (desire to participate)� Common language and terminology
� Team Charter� Document that formally recognizes the existence of the team
and the project� Provides direction on the project’s objectives and management� Delineates the roles and responsibilities of team members
� Clear and Constant Communication is Essential

Influences of a Project Manager
� Climate of Trust� Culture� Communication� Recognition� Valuing� Empowerment� Ethical practices� Priorities� Clarity
Somebody will set the rhythm, tone, tempo of
the organization and the accompanying projects
Will it be the Project Manager or will it grow spontaneously?

Management creates the culture and project
environment either way

PM Responsible for Creating People Cohesion
� The PM is the common factor on the Project Team� Cohesion among members reduces “cat-like” tendencies
� As a PM you must:� Identify your system components (i.e., individuals, groups)� Be cognitive of each person’s personality and perspective� Assign work according to each person’s strengths (if possible)� Create assignments that align with each person’s interests� Accentuate the positives and mitigate weaknesses� Provide accolades and praise� Be aware of people’s personal desires (personal “wins”)

Continual Clarity Is The Key
� Define what needs to be accomplished (results) - GOAL� Take sufficient time to:
� Assure that everyone understands their role - WHY ME?� Explain how each role contributes to completing the whole
project - WHY THEM?� “Push back [or up]” for the sake of clarity - WHY THIS?
� Ask questions...even of those up the chain� State the obvious from time to time
� Assuming people know will get you in trouble� Disseminate information as appropriate
� Lack of communication always causes confusion

Leadership
Management is about coping with complexity. Its practice and procedures are largely a response to one of the most significant developments of the 20th century: the emergence of large organizations. Without good management, complex enterprises tend to become chaotic in ways that threaten their very existence. Good management brings a degree of order and consistency to key dimensions like the quality and profitability of products.
Leadership, by contrast, is about coping with change. Part of the reason it has become so important in recent years is that the business world has become more competitive and more volatile….The net result is that doing what was done yesterday, or doing it 5% better, is no longer a formula for success. Major changes are more and more necessary to survive and compete effectively in this new environment.More change always demands more leadership.
John P. Kotter, “What Leaders Really Do,” Harvard Business Review 68, no. 3 (May-June 1990), p. 104.

Words of Wisdom
The essence of management is recognizing the need for change, then initiating, controlling, and directing it, and solving the problems along the way.
—Introduction to the Theory of Constraints, H. William Dettmer
Average managers are concerned with methods, opinions and precedents.Good managers are concerned with solving problems.
—Unknown
The power of the whole-system approach lies not so much in management sponsorship, but in high engagement and involvement of the entire
organization.—Flawless Consulting, 2nd Ed., Peter Block

Selecting a Cross Section to Build Your System
� Why a Whole-System Approach?� Maintain intimate knowledge of the work and the problems
� Avoid a few people speaking for an entire group
� The learning stays with the organization
� People make the decisions as well as implement their own ideas
� Project Teams can completely permeate the entire organization� Managers can disseminate information to all areas of the system and can receive
information back� No dark corners
� Buy-in has already begun and spreads insidiously

Whole System Case Study
� Binney and Smith (Crayola Brand Crayons)� Lindsay plant was ordered to double production to 4 million 16
stick boxes � Work was accomplished by teams using employee input in every
aspect of the plant’s operation� Goal was accomplished without financial or other rewards� Employees did receive:
� recognition� opportunity to learn� greater control by implementing employee ideas� increased job satisfaction and self-esteem� additional Job security due to 15-25% reduction in plant costs
� The Lindsay plant doubled its profits
