Programme Management

Programme managers are, above all else, change agents. Their role has evolved in most organisations from that of managing multiple projects, to implementing business strategy through an integrated portfolio of projects involving the management of multiple teams of professionals, as well as executive-level stakeholders. As such, the programme manager today requires a refined set of business and leadership skills that are vastly different from that of a project manager.

Yet, to be an effective programme manager generally requires a firm foothold in project management. To many, programme management is the next logical step in the career progression of one of the world’s fastest growing disciplines. This course includes an integrated case-study that will provide you with the opportunity to walk through the entire life cycle of a programme while facing the types of realistic challenges you will surely encounter. You’ll learn tools and techniques for programme governance, effectively managing stakeholders and ensuring that your programme realises its benefits and strategic objectives. You will learn real-life best practices presented and facilitated by instructors who have “been there, done that”.
