Workshop Synopsis (Abstract)
Hybrid project management is getting more and more attention. Hybrid project management is a technique where high-level project phases are planned using the waterfall approach and project phase work (actual tasks) execution is done the Agile way. It is rather easy to draw conclusions that some of the above-mentioned challenges can be “cured” by combining Agile and Waterfall into one.
The result of the combination is also logical. But achieving that combo is not easy or trivial, hence certain conventions must be established. This takes the flexibility and adaptability of Agile and combines it with the more traditional and rigid approach of Waterfall project management (where tasks are listed in sequential order much like a waterfall). In some ways, yes. However, the benefit of blended project management is that it allows you to get the best of various methodologies. This enables project managers to leverage the strength of their chosen approaches, while also navigating around their weaknesses or potential pitfalls.
In the traditional sense of hybrid project management (meaning, combining Agile with Waterfall project management), projects are planned using the Waterfall approach and a work breakdown structure (WBS). This gives teams a sense of the tasks involved and the overall scope of the project.
However, projects are executed using an Agile method, which leaves enough wiggle room to handle changes and reevaluate after short sprints/iterations. Additionally, hybrid project management is a great way to dip your toe into new approaches. While more and more teams have adapted Agile methodologies (an impressive 71% of organizations have done so), it’s not always intuitive. This hybrid approach is a great way for them to boost their comfort level because it is not such a drastic shift.
While hybrid project management allows you to use the best parts of your chosen project management methodologies, this isn’t without its challenges. Planning a project under two separate methodologies can be tricky, as both approaches may have differing timelines that you will need to do more in-depth planning to ensure all your bases are covered. This sharing session addresses the good practices of hybrid project management and learn how to deal with the challenges to enable project success.
The key learning points and summary take away for the talk includes but not limited to the following;
- Hybrid project management basis
- Current industries practices on hybrid project management
- The good practices on hybrid project management
- Key challenges with hybrid project management

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract)
Most project managers are familiar with the lifecycle and delivery approach, in particular the difference between a predictive project management and an agile project management approach. If you work on construction-type projects then a traditional project management approach is the best to adopt. Similarly, if you work on software development or IT projects then an agile project management approach is the best choice. As a researcher at the university working on product development projects, the choice between these two is a grey area: a situation that is not clear or where the rules are not known.
The goals and solutions of many complex product development projects are not clear. Scopes or specifications are not written in stones or should be completely followed. Working on complex product development projects such as developing a 3D printing system for medical application from scratch is challenging with tons of uncertainties and unknowns. The borderline between agile and predictive is a challenge. Failures are common but project managers must be able to adapt and solve issues one at a time until the project is completed. In this talk, topics on complex projects, product development and lessons learned gained through the years of developing this product will be briefly discussed.
Program Summary
- Project lifecycle and delivery approach
- Product development project: 3D printing system
- Lessons learned
- Q&A.

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract)
Stress is part and parcel of life. However, if stress is prolonged or triggered on a long-term basis, it will affect the individual’s personal life, work productivity and even health.
Studies have shown that higher stress scores among the workforce are correlated to lower productivity and this means ineffectiveness in the overall organisation.
As for individual health, unmanaged stress can lead to other health issues like headaches, migraine, cardiovascular disease and even cancer.
Hence stress should not be a concern of the individual themselves alone, but also the organisation. For organisations to perform better, they need to ensure that their people have proper stress management and overall wellness to perform their job.
This is one program that organisations can adopt for their employees so they get to acknowledge and understand what stress is and how they can apply the techniques that they will learn in this program to manage stress at any time, anywhere.
Program objectives

- Introduction
- Understanding stress
- The influence of stress to health and productivity
- Are we stressed?

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract)
For people who have been in the workforce long enough to find their motivation and passion degraded, it is hard sometimes to regain the momentum and drive to push for the next peak. The mid-career crisis is as real as the mental changes experienced by the teens. Most people just settle for whatever they have achieved, make do with whatever they have and swallow the pills of unrealised potential. The fear of living an unfulfilled life, unbearable boredom of a 9-5 job, and the inner voice of ‘I deserve more than this’ seem like an unsettled inner child who is trying to convey the subtle objection to her parents. The more the parent ignores, the more the inner child rebels. Unfortunately, following the inner child’s voice is not an easy option either. The insecurity of changing the status quo, the unclear vision of the path, and the lack of motivation for change are the causes of holding back for most people living in the crisis. The perpetual conflict is annoying at times. It may spiral into a depression for some people if not approaching it correctly. Fortunately, modern psychology has an excellent solution for those who want to not just free themselves from the inner conflict but to reclaim the potent drive to scale their next peaks.
If you are the person with the nagging inner voice for achieving more because you feel you deserve more and you want more, this talk will open your mind to the new possibilities available to you. If you are willing to play a long-term game for creating a successful career and living a fulfilling life, this talk is designed to equip you with the essential knowledge to start your journey. Drawing on the research findings of the self-determinant theory (SDT) of human motivation and personal experience from deploying the theoretical concepts, the speaker will discuss how autonomy, mastery and connectedness drive human actions from evolutionary perspectives to fulfil the basic human psychological needs. The speaker will also relate the concepts to the core of the teachings of Tony Robbins, a renowned contemporary success coach and the motivation framework proposed by Daniel Pink, an American author in his famous book entitled: Drive: The Surprising Truth About What Motivates Us.
Program objectives
What will you learn in this talk?
- The Self Determinant Theory (SDT) and why you should pay attention to this prescriptive theory of motivation as compared to descriptive motivation theory such as Maslow’s theory of m

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract)
Each individual engaged in the public or private sector has the potential in bringing values and positive contributions to their company & community they live in. It is valuable & critical for each individual to be provided with the proper guidance & direction on how to be a successful individual. This is to ensure they are able to provide the most optimized contributions & values which in return, will bring great benefit to their own well-being and livelihood.
There is a very logical and yet most of the time “ignored” journey to become a successful individual. Without following the guideline of being successful, sometimes success is achieved by chance; sometimes by luck. With this process, one is able to determine one’s performance with greater control. With that, we are able to sustain our performance and this would be proven by the rewards & recognitions we receive from organizations that we work for. We also want to develop individuals who will be successful with whichever organization they are attached to, hence their performance results are really results of their personality coupled with their efforts and commitment and not due to whom they are working for.
Imagine how successful and powerful an organization would be if everyone in the organization practices & lives the various guidelines to be successful.
This 1.5-hour online sharing is about what the journey to success looks like and what can be done to customize this training program to cater for your organizational needs.
Program objectives
- Understand the Journey To Become A Successful Individual.
- Share details how the program will be run.
- Share/discuss how the program can be customized for individual organizational needs

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract):
Employee engagement has emerged as a critical driver of business success in today’s competitive marketplace. High levels of engagement promote retention of talent, foster customer loyalty and improve organizational performance and stakeholder value.
There is a very strong connection between the application of personal strengths and employee engagement. Gallup has demonstrated the relationship in many studies including a dramatic finding on engagement, strengths, and performance: If a manager did not talk with an employee about their performance there was a 40% chance that the employee was disengaged. If a manager only talked about deficiencies and weaknesses, there was a 22% chance the employee was disengaged and if a manager held strength-based conversation there was only a 1% chance of disengagement (Tom Rath). The lack of strength-based conversations are detrimental to performance, engagement, and ultimately organisational results.
This 2-hour online workshop shares about how leaders can increase the awareness of strengths application at work, use strength-based conversation to motivate and inspire employees towards their work, and determine areas of employee engagement that bring higher performance results.
Program objectives:
The key learning points and summary take away for the talk includes but not limited to the following:
-
- Understand the nature and drivers of employee engagement.
- Discuss the relationship between employee strengths, performance and employee engagement.
- Learn 7 areas of Strengthscope® Team Engagement Model.
- Apply strength-based conversation to sustain higher employee engagement.

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract)
Parcel F is the first Malaysian Government mega project to implement BIM (Building Information Modelling) from Design Stage to Facilities Management. A Private Finance Initiative (PFI) project, the construction started in 2016 when BIM adoption was very low and not favourable among the construction industry players.

Skillsets acquired in leading and managing this large project have created many BIM professionals who will drive innovation in future projects.
The adoption of the BIM Common Data environment had created a veritable common language for all stakeholders. BIM has made a big impact to virtually represent the entire life cycle of Parcel F in an integrated delivery approach.
The 3D model enabled description of building elements and engineering services with elaborate descriptions to the geometry, relationships and property capabilities making an excellent assets and facilities management database.
Parcel F is the catalyst and trendsetter in BIM adoption up to Facilities Management. BIM Model was integrated with comprehensive Asset, Space and Building Data that has enabled and smoothen the Facilities Management team to manage the building operation in accordance with Government Asset Management and maintenance requirements.
This 1.5 hour talk shares the successful application of BIM into the Parcel F project that aims to provide insights on high level changes in the Project Manager’s role. It is a compilation of various articles on how professional PMs will behave and how they strive to win the projects.

Project success starts from building a strong teamwork and collative team. The process of team development was essential to collaborating individuals and turning them into productive team. The team development was easy in theory, but in reality, that was a big challenge for the project leader to build relationships among a group of people with a wide diversity of expertise.
Bruce Tuckman proposes 5 stages of group dynamic (forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning) for team development in the 1960s. Role conflicts such as overlapping responsibilities are the most common issues during the forming and storming stage of team development. The efforts of team forming will be wasted if there are conflicts among the team members.
Ineffective communication will never lead the team to success; proper communication could help to increase the ability to perform. Effective communication usually starts with building trust, and the starting point of build trust was building rapport with the team member. A team with high rapport could increase the tendency to communicate openly and create opportunities together. These are the key element to build a successful team and maintain the creative atmosphere within the team.
In this webinar, the framework of building rapport to develop effective communication will be shared. The framework could help the project leader to build the team in a positive group dynamic.
Program objectives:
In this one-hour session, you will learn the following:
-
- The important of Group Dynamic.
- The framework of team communication.
- How To build rapport with your team.

Our brain is the command centre responsible for the peak performance of our body. Akin to a leader of an effective organisation, the brain sends signals and instructions to the rest of the body to ensure optimal functioning and a healthy body. Afterall, a happy life is made up of a healthy mind and body.
| Healthy Body + Healthy Mind = Happy Life |
It is habitual that we allow our minds to operate in an automatic mode. We let the commander of our body do its job without putting much thought into the effectiveness of the system in which it is running.
As such, we allow a lot of things happening beyond our control to direct the way our brain responds without auditing to see if better systems can be put in place.
What if there is a possibility to improve the system in which our brain operates?
What if we can help our brain function more desirably and in turn enable ourselves to function more optimally?

Do you often have to convince your key project stakeholders that your project idea is what they need in your job? Whether to solve the chronic business issues or initiate a change to meet business objectives, you are not confident that your proposal will get to the senior management review board.

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract):
Scrambling through the Movement Control Order or social “locked down” was a whole new experience for all of us whilst our society is now living in the new normal. Covid-19 has changed the fundamental way we live, work and play in an unprecedented manner. It is imperative that service providers in the services sector – hospitality, healthcare, transportation, travelling, e-Commerce, telecommunication, banking and financial, are adjusting and adapting to the new normal.
In this unprecedented market situation, service providers in any essential sector are experiencing tremendous pressure and stringent restrictions (i.e. Movement Control SOP) to operate their business and deliver uninterrupted services to the customers as usual as possible.
This new normal had transformed the market environment where customers expect a “heavenly-king” like experience with safe, secured, hygienic and personalised services delivered where they want, when they want and the way they want.
Today’s customer demands dictate speed of response, ever-changing requirements, bespoke offerings and all of it at scale. Customer service is giving way to customer experience where “service” is no longer a commodity, but the grave “moment of truth.”
The moment of truth is simply any interaction during which a customer may form an impression of your brand, service or product. This impression may be either positive or negative. When the impression is negative, there are lots of opportunity for customers to complain about you or your company. Wouldn’t you, rather they say “how WONDERFUL your company are?”
As a service provider, you are bound to comply with SOPs while delivering your services to customers in a safer, more reliable, better than ever way to keep them HAPPY and be LOYAL to your company. To create the great “moment of truth” for your customers, you need to find a pragmatic solution. The proposed solution is:

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract):
In a normal situation, consumers only buy one product and thus the product must be functioning for its intended usage and specification. This means a product or service supplier to end consumer only get one chance to show their product is of good quality. Therefore, all products sold to the consumer market should achieve zero-defect or a very low defect rate such as six sigma quality which is equal to 3.4 defects in one million parts.
Product with zero defects is a dream of every organization. The next big question would be what it takes to achieve zero defects. In the modern world, the end product which reaches the end-user or consumer goes through a very long supply chain, from mother nature raw material such metal, silicon wafer, petrol chemical by-product to form into piece part assemble into sub-assembly and then join together to become final assembly.
All the touchpoint throughout the supply chain will increase error opportunity which could induce defect in a product.
This evening talk will explore on how an organization is accountable for the defect, touchpoints throughout the supplier chain will increase the error opportunity and whether zero is a reality or myth and what does it take to strive a zero defect quality.

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract):
Do you often make essential personal financial decisions that decide your future life quality? I bet the answer is yes. Do you often get the chance to make important financial decisions at your workplace? Probably not for most of us. Why? Because this privilege is reserved for the few in senior management positions. Those managers who can make the right project investment decisions will reap the most rewards in their corporate career progression.
If you are currently a project manager or technical project manager, do you have the right skill to be your bosses’ trusted advisor? Especially when it comes to making a project proposal during the annual project funneling and selection process? Or you would rather own the charter of being a project manager who took on a poorly formulated approved project and make your life miserable striving to meet the project goals and financial targets.
Are you looking to joining the rank of those senior managers? Are you looking to acquire the essential project investment appraisal skill to boost your career? Please join our talk. We will share the decision tools to assess projects from the financial investment perspective in the session. You will learn how to appraise projects strategically from the angle of a project sponsor. The concepts that you will learn are not part of any knowledge areas in the PMI PMBOK.
In this talk, you will learn the following concepts:
- Business view on project portfolio
- Projects as vehicles of investment
- Projects and company financial goal alignment
- Extended project lifecycle view
- Financial metrics for project investment evaluation

Adversities are a part of life. There are increasing challenges, changes and adversities in everyone’s life, and no one is exempted. The need for improved mental, physical and emotional resilience has never been greater, yet our ability to manage pressure seems to have declined.
The big questions are “How do I enhance my ability to respond to life’s complex and unpredictable eventualities as well as business changes and challenges? How do I build mental resilience to sustain my emotional health? How do I empower myself to forge ahead?”
The key to overcoming challenges lies in one’s Adversity Quotient (AQ)
By understanding the concept of Adversity Quotient, we can better understand how and why we and others react to challenges and adversities, and cultivate emotional responsiveness and strong minds and own a significant advantage in all aspects of life.
Your ability to respond to adversity is a strong indicator of your ability to succeed in any endeavor.
Come and learn strategies and mind-tools to increase your Adversity Quotient – your own Personal Code – to develop mental strength, to make meaningful difference in realizing your goals, and solve problems, and claim your destiny.

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract):
The coronavirus or COVID-19 has caused significant disruption to our day-to-day lives. Not surprisingly, this brings with it a host of additional stresses and anxieties.
Job or workplace stress may affect not only our quality of life, but our ability to do well in our careers. Many workers suffer from excessive stress and anxiety as a result of various job-related stressors. The importance of learning to reduce and manage workplace stress cannot be ignored especially during this particular time.
Research has shown that it is not the experience of stress that is responsible for it’s acclaimed negative effect on us, but the way we deal perceive stress. For some individuals, stress can lead to positive consequences. In this case, stress is referred to as eustress. Research on eustress shows that when a stressor is being evaluated as positive in terms of its potential implications for well-being, a different psychological and physiological response follows than does a negative assessment. In this case, stress can result in improvement in well-being.
This 2-hour online workshop will provide you with the skills necessary to identify signs and symptoms of stress. The workshop explores your coping strategies and reframe stress into productivity and happiness. In addition, participants will learn how to increase positive emotions, create flow experiences and increase happiness at work.
Program objectives:
- Recognize signs and symptoms of stress in the workplace.
- Keep stress in perspective and reframe stress.
- Increase productivity through flow.

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract):
Today’s manufacturing sector deploy a wide ‘assortment’ of methods to drive and improve productivity performance. Lean manufacturing or Toyota Production System (TPS) began from automobile manufacturing in Japan has gained traction across the globe. Six Sigma methodology on the other hand has attracted attention to drive variabilities since it was introduced by American engineers working at Motorola. There has been comparison over the methods’ approaches, benefits, and other aspects in the past years. But, recently instead of comparing, combining Lean and Six Sigma as one collaborative effort to drive continuous improvement has been gaining in popularity. There have been wide range of training, certification, and consulting services in Lean Six Sigma instead of choosing one or the other. Many companies have attempted lean transformation, six sigma transformation, and lately combining two or more methods, but far few claimed the successes in sustenance practices.
In this talk, the speaker will share and discuss the origins of these productivity methods and practices from Industrial Engineering. It includes the revolution of these methods and the importance of hybrid approach moving forward. The talk will also bring up the points of how Lean, Six Sigma work with other key productivity guru such as TOC (Theory of Constraints).
Engineers and management must make these seemingly disparate methods integrate and perform as one, which can be a challenge, especially when different technical and academic background, experiences, and escalating conflicting strategies add to the complexity. Critical lesson learned, shared, and discussed in the transformation to prevail in the next generation of manufacturing age.

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract):
Since its appearance at the end of the last century, positive psychology has greatly influenced a significant number of all the conceptual and theoretical models developed in the field of psychology. Psychology progressively stopped focusing on what makes us unhappy and unproductive, focusing instead on what mitigates suffering and increases people’s happiness and positive outcomes.
In parallel, organizational behavior is applying as an extension, the principles of positive psychology. The scientific community on organizational behavior is focusing on the study of positive organizational behavior structures and formulas to ensure the success of economic, political, and organizational systems leading to a positive optimization of processes and results.
Positive leadership is one of the most vital factors within positive organizational psychology. Positive leaders are a key element for the optimal performance of individuals, groups, and organizations. This approach is becoming more significant, especially in this pandemic period. The promotion of organizational and occupational well-being and health will increase organisational adaptation, flexibility and creativity, that enhance organisation’s ability to cope with the current crisis.
In this 2-session program, leaders will master the 5 Positive Leadership strategies. Through these 5 Positive Leadership Strategies, leaders will be able to engage team at the psychological level, curate Hope and build Positive Habits that helps team to adapt to new norms, and co-create new strategies with team to improve performance.
Program objectives:
1) Increase awareness of current leaders’ psychological state.

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract):
Project risk has its origins in the uncertainty present in all projects. Known risks are those that have been identified and analyzed, making it possible to plan responses for those
risks. Specific unknown risks cannot be managed proactively, which suggests that the project team should create a contingency plan (PMBOK® Guide).
Project Risk Management includes the process of conducting risk management planning, identification, analysis, response planning, and monitoring and control on a project. The
objectives of Project Risk Management are to increase the probability and impact of positive events, and decrease the probability and impact of negative events in the project
(PMBOK® Guide).
With the knowledge and skills acquired at the end of the training program, participants will be able to use practical risk management processes, tools and techniques to manage
project risks of any size and nature. This will in turn ensure successful project completion, meeting project scope, cost and schedule.
Participants will also work through the proactive approach to threat and opportunity risks — based on a clear understanding of the powerful nature of both qualitative and
quantitative approaches to risk management. The training examines threat and opportunity from both a top-down and bottom-up perspective of 7 risk management
processes. Using effective tools, the trainees will learn how to evaluate and respond to risk at the project and task levels.
This course is conducted by an experienced project director and a certified PMP® trainer with an extensive exposure to management of R&D, NPI Manufacturing, Construction,
and Operational Projects on a global scale with a few well known international technology companies.

Workshop Synopsis (Abstract):
Choosing to adapt is the heart of the Agile philosophy. In the past, Agile was primarily associated with software development and the IT sector. Today, it’s increasingly used by human resources teams and applied to entire organizations. Agile is a way of moving forward and creating value. It’s a mentality that allows people and groups to meet challenges, learn quickly, and respond to change. It’s a different and new way of managing teams, individuals, projects, and development. Agile has secured its place within the software development community where it originated and evolved, and now Agile is spreading into many other areas of the professional workplace, where its embrace of adaptive feedback can help businesses thrive. This sharing session will help you and your organization not only apply Agile methods and practices (“do Agile”) but transform yourselves to an Agile mindset and live in an Agile culture (“be Agile”) grounded in Agile values and principles, customer value, continuous customer engagement, and employee engagement.
Many are seeing that a more iterative approach allows them the flexibility to adjust to the changing needs of customers and the continuous churning of market conditions. Many others would like to apply Agile effectively because they are hearing it from all corners of their professional life.
In a nutshell, the Agile Mindset seems to be a very hopeful way of looking at life. It promotes rolling-with-the-punches, working hard, and never making excuses. It helps you keep moving forward, helping to change yourself for the better while keeping your core values as a person intact.
