Portfolio Management - 4-hours Interactive Workshop - Strategy and Priorization

Workshop Description:

Organizations that adopt projects as a mean to achieving change and delivering results often find it difficult to prioritize projects and to make best use of their resources; additionally, many recent surveys have demonstrated that project backlog is a major issue in organizations.

Portfolio management is a management approach that aims to align project efforts with the corporate strategy and optimize the efficient use of resources throughout the organization.

This workshop focuses on one key pillar of Portfolio Management:

  1. Prioritization of projects and other activities, based on their contribution to organizational benefits and their achievability

The three other pillars of Portfolio Management are developed into the book
“
The Four Pillars of Portfolio Management” written by Olivier Lazar and recently published.

The workshop identifies three key activities and techniques to accomplish this:

  1. Analysing the portfolio of existing and potential projects and activities

  2. Defining the content of the portfolio according the Strategic Vision

  3. Selecting the projects and activities to be implemented as part of this portfolio

The workshop also discusses the definition of the portfolio in the organization based on its Vision and Strategy and the role of the Project Management Office (PMO) into implementing and running these practices.

Learning Objectives:

Develop and enhance the contributions you make to your organization by being able to:

  • Understand alignment with organizational objectives & strategic goals

  • Demonstrate capability to analyse and select organizational initiatives

  • Assign resources to these initiatives in an organized way

  • Optimize use of resources to ensure corporate benefits delivery

  • Take responsibility for change & decisions to realize strategic & business objectives

  • Actively manage business value within a governance framework

  • Recognize why, when and how to use portfolio management

  • Support the development of a portfolio framework and culture

Target group:

This seminar is designed for experienced project managers, portfolio managers, chief project officers, project directors and senior managers who need to assign resources to projects to deliver corporate strategies. Also, for all project managers, who have a reasonable experience as project leaders and are interested in understanding the way projects are selected.
