Professor Hubert Vaughan in Beijing to Keynote September PMI Webinar
The Information Technology and Telecommunications Specific Interest Group (SIG) of the Project Management Institute (PMI®) is offering a webinar on 24 September 2008 featuring Professor Hubert Vaughan in Beijing, China. The topic will be "Challenges of a PgMP".
The IT & Telecom SIG webinar will be on Wednesday, September 24th, 2008 @ 11:00PM (EST - USA) --- Thursday, September 25th, 2008 @ 13:00 (Sydney, Australia). Click here to check your time zone.
According to the Abstract: One of the key missions of a Program Manager is to ensure projects deliverable will add value and benefits to the program outcomes, by initiating projects within the Program Scope during Program Initiation. Since the introduction of PgMP in October, 2007, I have been asked by many a similar question....How can we identify initial projects that fall into the defined Program Scope, and evaluate its potential benefit toward the Program?
This Webinar is not intended to provide the full answer to the above question, but some thoughts that I have had and ways that I have used for managing Programs in the early 90 - to identify projects within the program scope, i.e. the assigned mission boundary of a Corporate Strategic Vision.
With this Webinar, the audience will be able to develop the framework between the 3 different management themes used in Program management, and understand the differences between multi-projects management and program management.
