Dear PMI Chapters:
My newest book is: Power Skills that Lead to Exceptional Performance, published by Business Expert Press. I have developed a virtual 4-hour webinar based on the book, called, The Wonderful World of Power Skills: Achieving Exceptional Performance.
I would like to conduct the webinar for your chapter’s community for NO CHARGE. However, you are welcomed to charge attendees whatever amount you feel is appropriate. This is a great opportunity to bring in revenue and PDUs for your chapter and its members. I have already conducted the webinar to over a dozen chapters.
As an aside, over the years, I have presented webinars, tracks, dinner speaks, and workshops to over 120 PMI Chapters. PMI chapters have treated me great over the years. (Thank you!) This FREE offer is a partial payback. Also, of course, I am looking to expand the visibility of my newest book which, I am pleased to reveal, is respectfully growing in popularity.
This offer will expire October 1, 2024. Based on calendar availability, the webinar can be conducted anytime between now and the end of 2025.
Included below are the details:

Description of the Webinar
The Wonderful World of Power Skills: Achieving Exceptional Performance
Overview
Power Skills are a top asset in today’s ever-changing workplace. This no-nonsense webinar identifies the most important Power Skills to master on projects and in the workplace to promote accountability and to learn how to think and act to achieve the success you most desire. These Power Skills have been identified and validated from years of working with thousands of project managers, managers, and team members. Your personal limitations at work and across your life are directly impacted by your willingness and tenacity to deliberately embrace and execute on these Power Skills.
But this webinar does far more. It describes Power Skills that, if taught and nurtured to all employees of an organization or company, will result in the organization continuously, holistically, and positively evolving. Adopting these Power Skills can lead to exceptional performance both for individuals and for their organizations.
The Power Skills discussed include manage daily to your top three priorities, break the rules occasionally, never avoid necessary confrontation, think for yourself, routinely practice boldness and courage, make decisions as if you own the business, be a good actor, and so much more. Implementing some of these Power Skills may initially cause your palms to sweat and your heart to race. But, over time, these Power Skills can become second nature and define who you choose to be.
These Power Skills give you the real power to get your job done effectively and efficiently. It places the accountability for your actions squarely on you.
This webinar is likely one of the most valuable ½-day training investments you can make in YOU. Bold statement? Judge for yourself! It may very well be the accountability, inspiration, and encouragement you have been looking for.
The webinar is for leaders (i.e., project managers, team leaders, managers), those who aspire to be leaders, and all employees who desire to take their performance to a higher level.
Neal welcomes you to come along for a potentially transformative and game-changing ride in your personal pursuit of success. Don’t be surprised if the webinar has the effect of changing your life trajectory. Dare to become the person you most imagine. This stuff really works!
