Program Management Simulation

Description

This intensive workshop is a shortened version of PMPAS–5 and PMPAS–4. The focus is on program execution, with the workshop extending beyond the boundaries of a single project and into the complex and ambiguous world of managing multiple projects.

Participants manage concurrent projects within the framework of the organization’s strategy and goals. They compete for project priority, visibility, and business resources, while they share and negotiate for the benefit of the entire organization.

The workshop provides a rich learning laboratory to practice and improve enterprise multi-project thinking. Participants must balance the organizational goals of business performance and customer satisfaction, while they build organizational capability and the human capital of the enterprise.

This workshop is designed for project and functional managers and support groups. Participants need a good understanding of project management and typically have 8–15 years of experience.
