How should you track the performance of your project portfolio? What does senior management need to know for effective decision-making, and what’s the best way to present that information to them? What can you do to make sure you recognize troubled projects before they become failed projects? How can you insure that you are optimizing your use of human resources? In this one-day workshop, you will be introduced to the concepts that will provide you the know-how to strategically manage a balanced portfolio of projects for superior organizational performance.
In managing and controlling your project portfolio, decisions involve a re-verification of your projects’ critical success factors — including resource availability and the continued validity of the business case — with the business sponsors. In addition, shifting business, technology, and market conditions can rearrange project priorities. Those decisions also require a re-alignment of the project portfolio, which may or may not affect other projects in the portfolio. In this workshop you’ll learn the project portfolio management practices that provide the capability to effectively meet these challenges and insure that your organization maximizes its return on investment.
