Product Description:
Already a best practice for the majority of Fortune 500 companies, program management has now been embraced by large and small organizations eager to fluidly and efficiently manage all their projects from one central department. This book introduces readers to the fundamentals of program management, detailing the reasons for setting up a program management office, and showing them step-by-step how to do so. Readers will find clear, detailed information on a PMO's major functions such as selecting projects, conducting project health checks, providing program management training to the organization, creating and implementing a standardized program management process, and monitoring and controlling the overall status of all running projects. Readers will also find helpful definitions and sample forms they can use in completing administrative tasks such as maintaining a Risk and Issue Log, and producing internal and external reports. Both comprehensive and easy to understand, this book is an indispensable introduction to this important and powerful trend in project management.
Summary: HR Consultant
Rating: 5
This book is an essential tool for those interested in learning the latest on program management, specifically a centralised program management office. The book gave me pointers on managing the recent restructuring of my company where we had many sub-projects running at the same time, and we desperately needed an office to coordinate all of them. Consolidation of specialised program management staff provides an effective and efficient way to ensure projects are on track from beginning to end and pick up risks or issues before they become potential disasters. It's basically an easy-to-follow `project management blueprint' for organisations large and small that want that professional edge.
