Training Course Overview
Strategic objectives are crucial for maintaining a competitive advantage, but how can an organization effectively manage the delivery of these goals? How do you ensure that strategic objectives are aligned with work results, and that the outputs lead to outcomes that achieve strategic value?
The key lies in effective Governance. A robust governance structure identifies future needs and supports the selection, management, control, and measurement of strategic initiatives to meet those needs. This structure is built upon three fundamental pillars: portfolios, programmes, and projects.
In the Mastering Portfolios, Programmes & Projects training course, you will delve into each of these pillars. You will learn how to utilize them to connect strategic objectives with programme and project outcomes, ultimately leveraging them to achieve competitive advantages and drive improved operational performance.
This training course will feature:
- Examination of effective governance mechanisms to support planning, execution (change) and performance management
- Portfolio management
- Programme and project alignment and management
