2 days
OVERVIEW
Companies seeking more efficiency and tighter monitoring of projects are opening project managers in growing numbers. Here’s what a project manager should do, what types you should consider, and who really needs one. A project management office (PROJECT MANAGER) is a group internal or external to a company that sets, maintains and ensures standards for project management across that organization. They’re the keepers of best practices, project status and direction — all in one spot. PMBOK is the primary references as the 6th Edition encompasses the waterfall & Agile practices aligned to the PMBOK .
The role of the project managers could change as artificial intelligence and digital transformation take hold, but in today’s business climate, here’s what a project manager should do, what types you should consider, and who really needs one. A project manager makes sure company procedures, practices and operations go right on time, on budget and all in the same way. Project managers are there to ensure project and program success, and that’s critical because organizations deliver value through projects and programs.LEARNING BENEFITS
