Project HEADWAY: A Pragmatic Approach To Program Management

 

This presentation is supporting material for this video.

Program management has a challenge. Primarily that no one is quite sure what it is, what it involves or how it should be done properly—and well. Not simply ‘project management on a big scale’, program management is an altogether different discipline. To some, it is viewed as being more strategic. For those in the throes of a big program, however, it can still feel pretty operational. When asked to define what’s involved, many invoke the age-old disclaimer of “I can’t tell you what it is, but I know it when I see it.”

This presentation explores what program management is supposed to do, how it works, and how to approach managing programs in a way that is practical, pragmatic and realistic. It explores where programs came from, and why they are an essential tool to organizational management. Most importantly, the presentation evaluates the fundamental dimensions of program management in a way that is accessible, understandable and readily able to be applied.

Join Mark Mullaly as he delves into the different and distinct world of program management. Whether you are a project manager looking to broaden your understanding, a program manager trying to better navigate your world or an executive trying to more effectively deliver strategic undertakings, this presentation is one you won’t want to miss.
