PMO Setup and Operation for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers critical path analysis and work breakdown structure from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because the coordination layer is usually the least trained and the most load bearing, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with change control, cost estimation and project closure in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring change control into line with current good practice, measured against earned value management
- Explain cost estimation to someone who does not do the work
- Improve project closure within their own organisation
- Take ownership of project reporting rather than escalating it
