Talk Summary
Project environments continue to accelerate, with constant change, increasing complexity, and growing expectations placed on project professionals. For many women working in projects, this pressure can quietly lead to exhaustion, reduced engagement, and burnout.
In this interactive session, Liz Hector explores how project professionals can thrive rather than simply cope. Drawing on emotional intelligence, practical project experience, and mentoring insights, Liz will share how to build resilience at both an individual and team level.
This webinar focuses on sustainable high performance. It challenges the idea that success requires overwork, and instead offers practical approaches to managing energy, emotions, and expectations while maintaining strong delivery and leadership impact.
The presentation will include time for group feedback and discussion.
