Managing Projects, Programs and Portfolios
Project management requires the patience of Job, the persistence of army ants and the creativity of a musical genius. Managing projects in a program requires an additional level of strategic thinking. There is no single formula to ensure success, though many organizations have created a project management office (PMO) to boost efficiency, centralize efforts and provide a structure to manage portfolios of IT investments. While methodoligies used to manage and measure projects can be complex and severe, the goal is to create a repeatable process within the corporate culture that delivers the highest-value projects in an on-time, cost-effective way.
In this episode of DM Radio, we’ll talk to three experts who can help put some method to the madness of project management. Our guests will include: Azita Gandjei, IT Industry Market Manager for Primavera; Peter Winston, CEO of Integrated Computer Solutions; and Mark Peco, Principal Consultant for InQvis, Inc.
