Course Overview
Many organizations fail because they do not use "joined up" thinking. They manage projects extremely effectively, but this work does not seem to translate into useful benefits that contribute to the organization's overall strategy.
Managing related projects and other activities in a coordinated way, as part of a larger program can provide efficiencies and benefits that would not accrue if this work was managed independently. For a Program Manager, the focus is no longer on specific deliverables, but instead is concerned with providing benefits to the organization and aligning the program with the organization's overall strategy.
Private classes on this topic are available. We can address your organization’s issues, time constraints, and save you money, too. Contact us to find out how.
