About the Presentations

Just Trust Me!

What is 'Trust'? Why should 'Trust' be a topic of interest to us as managers or as employees? What do we even mean when we talk about 'Trust'? What can we do to build it... and how do we erode it?

I think those are good questions to get us started - but are they enough to get anyone to devote an hour of their time to listening to a webinar on 'Trust'?

That all depends on whether or not you 'Trust' me to deliver something of value.

And that self referential loop is what we're going to build upon. If you decide to register for this session? Then your responses to some of the questions during the registration process will shape the conversation/direction of the webinar. In other words - we will end up exploring how we use Trust to make decisions.

Will it be a good use of your time? You'll just have to trust us.

Application of Vertical Load

Luis will present his experiences in applying vertical load on the resources to have a successful creation of project teams.
