Banks & Finance organisations need to rollout new products and services regularly and this require structured project mgmt approach to plan & deliver these functional & ready to use products in time. Banks are now exploring agile project mgmt methodologies as they have most of their teams in house.

If however those managers are working in an organisation where change is rapid, they will likely get involved in it regularly, so at least some expertise in project management will help them.

In any field, there are benefits, however, not "everything is a project". When properly applied to projects, it is benefical in every field. Saving Changes... Posted: Jul 26, 2017 9:28 AM
