Project Documentation 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 portfolio prioritisation and work breakdown structure from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because most project failure is visible in the schedule long before it is admitted in the status report, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with earned value management, scope definition and agile and scrum practice in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Improve earned value management within their own organisation, measured against PRINCE2
- Bring scope definition into line with current good practice
- Spot where agile and scrum practice is failing before it becomes a finding
- Review stakeholder communication and say plainly whether it is working
