Portfolio Management: Benefits of Strategic Alignment

As part of our effort to provide more on information on “What’s next after Project Management?” with this webinar we introduce you to Portfolio Management.

If you are a manager with a top-down perspective (you are managing a budget and a team, or a group of strategic initiatives), your next step could be MoP Portfolio Management, a one week training with certification. MoP, Management of Portfolios, provides an overview of all change activities including what is in the portfolio, what it is costing, what risks are faced, what progress is being made, and what the impact is on business as usual and the organization’s strategic objectives.
