Learn how program management practices can ensure healthier projects, facilitate decision making, and achieve consistent results. Join us to see what tools and artifacts can help improve communications, decision making, and collaboration between project teams, executive decision makers and resource managers.

Discover how program managers empower their stakeholders by getting them what they need (not necessarily what they want). And last but not least, understand why it’s important to manage the intersection between projects and ongoing operations, coach project managers; and, when necessary, challenge the status quo.

Key takeaways from this webinar include:

• A case study for how program management practices are applied in a medium-sized organization
• The intersection between project management and program management skill sets
• Concrete examples of how to drive program-level decisions
