Strategic Stakeholder Management for Projects
5 days|Delivered on request
Strategic Stakeholder Management for Projects looks at this work from the level at which it is resourced and defended. The focus is on project initiation, stakeholder communication and how both connect to what the organisation is actually trying to achieve. This matters at the strategic level because the coordination layer is usually the least trained and the most load bearing. Delegates leave able to work confidently with scheduling, critical path analysis and portfolio prioritisation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of scheduling rather than escalating it, measured against earned value management
- Bring critical path analysis into line with current good practice
- Improve portfolio prioritisation within their own organisation
- Put change control on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
