In spite of, or because of pressures coming from all sides, she strove for and accomplished a balance between motherhood and personal life, and being a highly effective and respected corporate executive. She overcame the odds! In the male dominated insurance industry she rose to prominence as a woman, and an African American woman at that. <br>
<br>Donna will share many of her practical life lessons shaped by her corporate experiences: how she overcame what for many were showstoppers, to rise to the top in her career and mentor others to far succeed their own career expectations. <br>

Women have, in fact, come a long way in being accepted as great leaders and a significant force in today's world economy. Who ever thought Fortune Magazine would have an annual issue devoted to the top female leaders in business? Ditto to the realm of world politics-who ever thought the U.S. would have a woman running for president in 2008? There are even cable TV stations dedicated to the women's market. But in spite of validation that the female gender is powerful, a lot of old attitudes and questions still haunt women in many industries and occupations, including our beloved project management profession. Is leadership really impacted by gender differences? Does displaying emotions undermine you as a leader? Can women be wives, mothers, and leaders at the same time and be successful in all of those roles? Is the proverbial "glass ceiling" finally developing cracks?<br>

The organizational ability, discipline, and operational intensity that undergird this work are critical to organizational effectiveness, but too often project managers are not recognized for the value they are creating at their firms. Sometimes this is because a PM may prefer to stay under the radar and let others take the glory, sometimes the PM does not get recognition because she takes on too much of the work herself, sometimes it is because a PM doesn't know or take advantage of the power she can have in influencing people over whom she has no authority. All of these limit the responsibility, recognition, and resources potentially available to the PM.<br>
</span><span style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"><br>In this session, we will focus on key negotiation concepts that will help you improve your project management practices and enable you to negotiate more effectively for yourself. Through this presentation, case discussions, and roleplays, you will learn and practice techniques for creating value through negotiation and allow you to claim your fair share - in both professional and personal settings. <br>
