In 2009 20% Of The World’s Estimated GDP
Was Spent On Projects

Standish Group released chaos report indicates that only 1/3 of all projects are successful!

There are too many project cases where the personal (individual and collective) individual objectives gain control over professional standards and ethical behavior that lead the projects to failure!

Too many decisions are taken based on sales priorities and not long-term, ethical, orderly!

It’s not the fault of the sale, but the professional price one pays for sales is the question We have to demystify the more strongly that there is not project management itself that necessarily fails as much as it’s been said, but the organization.

The organization management capability for:

1. Decision management / lack of control
2. Conflict management /leadership
3. lack of authentic management (long-term, ethical and orderly management)

I believe in the need for a paradigm shift in market philosophy in the way to create, sell and buy projects. – Majeed Hosseiney

Organization structures in most companies today make resource management a daunting task. A lack of visibility into resource allocation and capacity, consistent prioritization and validation of actual work versus planned, contribute to this challenge.

Over 50% of IT organizations surveyed use their “best guess” when determining what capacity IT has to perform projects in a given period.

This webinar presents the fundamentals for creating and implementing a Resource Management Model using people, process and technology. A Resource Management Model is a set of processes that provide visibility, decision support and structure to effectively manage people in an organization.

Allocating resources based on availability and fit, supported by standard processes, will improve the success and predictability of projects across your organization.

Who should attend this webinar?
COO’s, CIOs, Department VPs and Managers, PMs, Resource Managers
