It highlights the differences between project, programme and portfolio management and provides insight and guidance on how to successfully navigate them as a leader.

The first section focusses on the key characteristics of project management, programme management and portfolio management, drawing out the key differences which most delegates will be aware of, but may not have analysed in any detail.

The second section covers moving up the chain, looking at the key pitfalls that many people encounter, such as trying to do too much, not knowing how to delegate and focussing on the wrong level of detail.

The third section introduces techniques to assist the delegates – leveraging their existing skill sets, such as organisational skills, influencing and people management to move seamlessly between the various requirements.

Finally, we look at available tools and support in the market before summarising and moving to questions and answers.

What’s the most effective path to success in any domain?

It’s not what you think. Plenty of experts argue that anyone who wants to develop a skill, play an instrument, or lead their field should start early, focus intensely, and rack up as many hours of deliberate practice as possible.

If you dabble or delay, you’ll never catch up to the people who got a head start. But a closer look at research on the world’s top performers, from professional athletes to Nobel laureates, shows that early specialization is the exception, not the rule.

In this Gartner video Q&A webinar, acclaimed author David Epstein (LinkedIn profile) joins us to discuss his latest book, “Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World.”

David shares why, even as the world gets more specialized, people who think broadly and embrace diverse experiences and perspectives will increasingly thrive.

Discussion Topics:

• Why generalists tend to be more creative, more agile, and make better connections
• Why frequent quitters end up with the most fulfilling careers
• How the most impactful inventors cross domains rather than deepen their knowledge in a single area
