Herding the political animal - Key strategies for delivering a successful project in spite of organizational politics

cecrs

Unless you are working with a single stakeholder, politics will be an issue. I will describe key strategies that will help you manage organizational politics and deliver a successful project.  

- How to identify the players involved

- Build relationships and adapt your approach based on different types of players

-  Build sites whose architecture takes into account the needs of a large organization with multiple interests (eg politics) - we will illustrate this with a real world example.

The aim of this presentation is to outline techniques that have worked for us to effectively deal with client-side politics and deliver a successful project.
