How we

How we "make project management indispensible to business results"

The Project Management Institute catch-phrase is a rally cry to Project Managers to ensure we’re making a difference. However, how do we define and measure business results? What is the context? Can we see the forest for the trees?
Join us on September 9th, for this presentation and discussion on how business results are defined and managed in a service based organization, and how project management is essential in executing strategy. Topics will include
  • Service Management, ITIL, and PPP Management
  • Performance Management in practice
  • The integration of Service Management, Performance Management, and Project Management to drive value
Connecting your projects to your organizations critical services and strategic goals, clarifying value, and delivering results that matter, is essential to go from a “just do it” project manager, to a recognized partner in your organization’s success.
Speaker
Our guest speaker has over 16 years experience in managing and driving value for organizational success. An advocate of project management principles and practice, and successful in executing projects to drive organizational success, our speaker is a Project Management Professional, Six Sigma Black Belt, and ITIL practitioner.
