Project Portfolio Management (PPM) is a strategic decision making approach aimed at maximizing overall returns on project investments. By focusing on the “right†projects, it is expected that there will be improved organization alignment to strategic plans as well as optimized utilization of financial and human resources.
Unfortunately, there is a significant amount of misinformation in the marketplace about PPM and many organizations that have attempted to implement these practices have failed. Of course, vendors stand ready to “help†unsuspecting executives with snake oil claims of “silver bullet†process or tool purchases to achieve PPM nirvana.
This webinar will provide you with a solid grounding of PPM principles – costs, benefits, critical success factors and lessons learned. These will help you decide whether pursuing PPM improvement is a valuable and realistic goal for your organization.
