11 Feb 2009 - PMI Global Congress Asia Pacific, Kuala Lumpur
Delivery of “Inspiring Peak Performance from your Project Teams” workshop
“The workshop delivered by Dominic Siow was the best focus area session I attended during the recent PMI Global Congress held in Kuala Lumpur. Through his unique and animated delivery of the topics, the participants were captivated and able to stay focus throughout the four hour session. Dominic used a variety of delivery styles: a good combination of lecture, discussion and actual practice for some of the tips. He also reinforced his points by using simple language, citing real life examples and getting the participants to try out some of the activities. The contents and tips provided are very practical and can immediately be implemented in our work as well as personal lives. I have started to put into action some of the steps I learned during his workshop and experienced the difference it made to the quality of my work. My presentations are more energetic, I am giving feedback to my team more frequently, I am constantly assessing my team environment and I ensure that I always take the time to coach my team members.
All in all, it was the most memorable focus area presentation and most practical. Hopefully I am on the right path to become a better leader.”, Maizitun Mat Ya, Head, IT Programme Management, Malaysia Airlines
