SUMMARY:FREE: Transparent Choice Webinar - From Cost Cuts to Strategic Clarity: Rethinking Portfolio Decisions
DESCRIPTION:When budgets tighten\, most organizations react the same way: cut costs\, freeze hiring\, and hope for the best. But what if your PMO could do something far more powerful? \nJoin Stuart Easton (TransparentChoice) and guest Stuart Taylor (author & PMO practitioner) for a practical\, no-nonsense discussion on how PMOs can move from being cost centers under pressure to strategic partners driving smarter decisions.  \nDrawing on real-world experience\, from navigating organizational immaturity to leading complex transformation environments this session explores how to: \n\nIdentify which projects truly deliver value (and which don’t)\nMake meaningful cost savings without damaging outcomes\nShift from reactive reporting to proactive portfolio leadership\nReposition the PMO as the team that saves millions not just manages projects\n\nThen\, Stuart will take you inside TransparentChoice with a live demo showing how to: \n\nTurn strategy into a transparent prioritization model everyone buys into\nKill low-value work without the politics\nRun real-time “what-if” scenarios to make smarter trade-offs\nGive execs the clarity they’ve been asking for\n\nExpect an engaging\, conversational format with live reactions\, honest insights\, and practical examples all grounded in the reality PMOs face today. \nIf you’re being asked to “do more with less\,” this session will show you how to do something smarter instead. \nWe’ll cover:  \n✔ Which projects are genuinely delivering\, and which are quietly burning budget \n✔ How to make real savings without damaging outcomes \n✔ How to shift from reactive reporting to proactive portfolio leadership \nPlus\, a live demo of TransparentChoice software\, showing how to prioritize transparently\, run real-time what-if scenarios\, and kill low-value work without the politics. \nRegister here

SUMMARY:FREE: Transparent Choice Webinar - The New Role of the PMO in a Disrupted World
DESCRIPTION:With Laura Barnard\, Rebecca Reynolds\, Al Zeitoun & Mickey Nakamura. \nFour of the sharpest minds in the field\, in one session\, join Stuart Easton to explore how PMOs can stop waiting for clarity and start leading through disruption. \nBudget cuts\, restructuring\, and AI aren’t distant threats – they’re here. Questions about relevance and value are real conversations in boardrooms.\nThat’s scary for PMOs… but it’s also a huge opportunity to step out of the “reporting factory” box and lead strategically.\nThis interactive session is about making that shift. Building on the energy of PMO unCon\, we’ll explore how PMOs can get ahead of change\, lead with confidence\, and turn disruption into opportunity for themselves and their organizations.\n\nWe’ll dig into:\n\nWhy now is the perfect time to partner with CFOs\, CIOs\, and execs\nPractical ways to secure your seat at the decision-making table\nHow to transform fear into decision-insight\nHow to turn risk into business opportunity that drives value (rather than destroying value)\n\nDon’t wait for change to happen to you – grab this chance to shape it.\nWe’ll cover: \n🔹How to build real partnerships with CFOs\, CIOs\, and exec teams\n🔹How to turn fear into decision-insight\, and risk into opportunity\n🔹How to secure your seat at the table\, from strength\, not survival mode\nRegister here

SUMMARY:WATCH BACK: HPCA Webinar | AVT in the NHS - Pilot Insights from Oxford University Hospital
DESCRIPTION:AI and Ambient Voice Technology (AVT) feature prominently in the NHS 10-Year Plan\, with growing interest in how these tools can safely and effectively support clinicians at scale. But what does it really take to test AVT in a live hospital environment? In this session\, TheHill (Oxford University Hospitals’ Innovation Service) will share insights from a recently concluded\, large-scale pilot evaluating four AVT solutions across the Trust. The talk will explore why the pilot was run\, how it was designed and delivered in a complex NHS setting\, and what was learned along the way. Attendees will hear about the outcomes of the pilot\, including practical lessons on clinical engagement\, governance\, data\, workflow integration\, and adoption. \nThe session will conclude with reflections on what these findings mean for the future of AVT at Oxford University Hospitals and how they are shaping next steps for AI-enabled innovation in care delivery. Followed by an open Q&A. \nWATCH BACK HERE

SUMMARY:CLIENT ONLY: APM Webinar - AI in Project Management: Practical Tools\, Real Applications
DESCRIPTION:AI tools like Copilot\, ChatGPT\, and Claude are already on the desks of most project professionals\, but the leap from casual experimentation to purposeful\, efficient use in project delivery remains a challenge. \nThis session\, led by James Garner from APM Corporate Partner Gleeds\, cuts through the hype to focus on what actually works\, what doesn’t\, and how to get started properly. \nIf you’re a project professional with some experience of AI tools and you would like more structured guidance on applying them to real project work\, please attend. No technical background is required. \nJames will start with a practical tour of current helpful AI applications across the PM lifecycle\, such as meeting transcripts to provide quality minutes and action logs\, scheduling and estimating support\, risk identification\, PSR drafting\, and stakeholder communications. James will offer a live demo with real prompts that work. \nJames will then focus on how to navigate your way through the blockers in your organisation\, from IT security to building the business case. He will also talk about the ethical guardrails and how to know when not to use AI\, as well as a simple framework for identifying where to start in your own projects. \nFollowing that\, there’ll be a brief look ahead to agentic AI\, AI-augmented project offices\, and what this means for the profession\, bringing together future possibilities and today’s practical realities. \nYou will then have the opportunity to get your questions answered and share your experiences\, insights and concerns. \nBy the end of the session you will leave with a clear understanding of where AI adds genuine value in project delivery\, to help you move beyond experimentation. \nThis session will be uploaded to the APM Corporate Hub – please reach out if you need access or more information on how to access the event via HPCA’s APM Corporate Membership

SUMMARY:WATCH BACK: HPCA Storytelling Community Session | The Power of the Stories We Tell In Change
DESCRIPTION:How can we harness storytelling to enable change in our organisations? \nJoin Marianne Powell & Brin Hodgskiss to look at storytelling through two different lenses. \n\nFirstly\, the stories we can find\, tell and create to support our change efforts.\nSecondly\, the stories that are already circulating in our organisations (as unwritten rules) that may block our efforts if we’re not aware of them.\n\nYou’ll leave with a new perspective on storytelling for change\, and a good understanding of the kinds of stories that support change\, versus the stories that block our way. \nWATCH BACK HERE

DESCRIPTION:Everyone’s talking about the “strategy-execution gap.”\nHere’s the problem: most of that talk is noise. It’s generic\, it’s vague\, and it doesn’t answer the real question: Who actually owns closing that gap?\n\nShould it be the PMO? A Strategy Office? Someone else entirely? And if it is the PMO\, what does that look like in practice?\n\nJoin Stuart Easton and guests Rebecca Reynolds\, Fadi Bayoud\, and Ben Chamberlain for a candid conversation that cuts through the buzzwords. We’ll unpack why alignment keeps breaking down\, what role the PMO must play\, and the concrete steps you can take to move from reporting to real influence.\n\n\nWhat are the takeaways? \n\nUnderstand why the “strategy-execution gap” narrative is broken and what’s really causing value to leak in your organization.\nIdentify the role your PMO must play to bridge the disconnect between executives and delivery teams and why waiting for someone else to fix it is a mistake.\nLearn the essential questions your PMO should be asking\, the ones that cut through noise\, expose misalignment\, build a common language and help you pinpoint where value is leaking and how to close it.\n\nIf you’re tired of the same old “gap” talk and want actionable ways to make your PMO indispensable\, this is the session you can’t afford to miss. \n\nReserve Your Spot Today!

SUMMARY:FREE: HPCA Storytelling Community Session - Practicing your pitch for purpose or pleasure
DESCRIPTION:Tell me about a time… you were proud of your work \nWhat: Story Sharing – Practicing your pitch for purpose or pleasure. \nWhen: 24 March 11:00 – 12:00 \nWhy: Because life is better when we share our stories! \nAh\, well that is a bit sh*t \n….was my first reaction when I read the latest results from the NHS staff survey. \nThen I reflected\, it’s not surprising: there’s been a chain of shocks from the high pressure days of COVID through the rumbling disruptions of continual  organizational and structural changes. \nBut there is always one thing that gets left out of the headlines. \nThe brilliant work that people do day in\, day out. \nNot just the life-saving stuff. \nI’m talking about the small\, personal moments of triumph. \nThe thankless task\, done well. \nThe awkward meeting\, smoothly handled. \nThe emotions soothed. \nThe paperwork that got the funding. \nThe small personal moments of triumph in the daily work of change and project managers everywhere. \nThey never make the surveys and news headlines\, so we are going to celebrate those small\, personal moments of triumph on the 24 of March\, at 11:00. \nThe HPCA storytelling community will be hosting an hour long webinar: devoted especially for you to be able to share the story of a time when you were really proud. \nThe only requirement is that you bring her anecdotes and experiences! \nThe world becomes a little bit better when we share our stories. \nP.S. To those who attended our storytelling training over the last year: we want you to share the stories you shaped in our workshops and our master classes\, of course! \nRegister here

SUMMARY:WATCH BACK: HPCA "Change Under Pressure Programme" Webinar - Neuroscience & A Positive Mindset
DESCRIPTION:This session with David Bovis looks at what happens in the brain when change is not chosen but imposed. David explains why feelings of uncertainty\, loss of control\, and threat are completely normal responses at the neurological level\, and how understanding these mechanisms can help us regain clarity and stability. \nParticipants will be guided through the neuroscience of stress\, fear\, and identity disruption\, and shown simple\, practical ways to support themselves through challenging transitions with confidence and compassion. \nThis session is particularly relevant for NHS colleagues facing job insecurity\, role changes\, or organisational turbulence. It will help people who: \n\nFeel anxious\, overwhelmed\, or disconnected due to uncertainty.\nAre struggling with motivation or confidence during this period.\nWant to understand why their thoughts and emotions feel different right now.\nNeed ways to maintain wellbeing\, focus\, and balance while navigating imposed change.\nAre looking for evidence-based guidance that complements the narrative from earlier sessions in the HPCA series\n\nAttendees will gain reassurance that their responses are not personal failings but predictable neurological patterns\, and they will learn how to work with their brain rather than against it. \nParticipants will leave with: \n\nAn understanding of the brain’s threat-response systems and why imposed change feels destabilising.\nInsight into why uncertainty amplifies self-doubt and negative internal narratives.\nPractical tools for calming the nervous system and regaining a sense of agency\, even when circumstances cannot be controlled.\nTechniques for reframing unhelpful stories and anchoring attention in more constructive patterns\, supporting the themes introduced by the previous presenters.\nSimple BTFA principles they can apply immediately to improve clarity\, decision making\, and emotional balance.\n\nThis will be a reassuring and empowering session designed to help NHS colleagues protect their wellbeing and sense of self during a very difficult period of transition. \nMake sure you subscribe to HPCA\, it’s free & you will receive our monthly update email & also an email about your local regional network meeting. \nWATCH BACK HERE
