Projects and programs today are more complex, highly uncertain, and changing faster than ever; they are also greatly impacted by the business dynamics, and “one size does not fit all”. As a result modern businesses can no longer survive on traditional project management skills. In the next generation of the profession, project managers will have to evolve into leaders who take ownership of their project’s business results.

Learn how to deal with the strategic and business aspects of their programs, actually improve on-time delivery, and build a vision to inspire their teams and have fun.

The PMI Aerospace & Defense CoP presents Strategic Project Leadership (SPL), which was built on the foundation of traditional project management during twenty years of research and work with corporations, dozens of studies and five PhD dissertations.

SPL helps organizations deal with their projects in a flexible and adaptive way, and focus their projects on business results by creating value, competitive advantage, and winning in the marketplace.

This integrated, industry-proven, and PMI award-winning approach combines the business-related needs, the operational aspects of getting the job done, and the leadership perspective of inspiring and motivating the team.

Use lessons from several famous A&D programs to show how project leaders can integrate Strategic Project Leadership® into their current practices by building new skills on top of the PMP® and the PMBOK® Guide areas.
