Activity Type: Education – Course or Training  1 Hour  1 PDU
Provider: PMTA  Project Management Training Alliance

Project Managers have always been taught to focus on the Triple Constraint, Time, Cost, and Scope. That is a good thing as in order to successfully manage a project it is important to plan for, execute, and track these variables.

This focus has been reflected in PMBOK®s from the 1st through the 6th edition with PMI® taking a prescriptive approach to generally accepted project management practices.

As such, the PMBOK® editions have had an emphasis on predictive and iterative life cycles which usually follow a waterfall sequence of project phases.

In the 7th edition of the PMBOK®, PMI® decided to change the focus of the material to an outcome based format, more in line with ANSI, and ISO standards.

The focus is now on Project Management Principles and Performance Domains that are relevant to any project management life cycle.

This Webinar will cover the following topics:

  1. A brief history of PMBOK® edition changes
  2. Why Agile is different
  3. Explanation of Project Management Principles
  4. Explanation of Project Management Practices

Presenter: Pete Matassa, (LinkedIn profile) MBA, PMP, PMI-ACP President of Techknowledgy has been creating custom project status reports for diverse stakeholders of IT infrastructure, accounting, system implementation, and process reengineering projects over a twenty-year project management career.

Every organization, over time, develops poor and unnecessary levels of complexity in their assets, processes, and product and service portfolios. Executive leaders must consistently simplify their businesses to achieve long-term profitable growth while managing risk.

This requires them to negotiate functional, economic, and political challenges.

Addressing these has numerous benefits, including cost reduction, greater agility, and improved stakeholder experience, but it also lays the groundwork for further business growth.

Most organizations lack effective simplification governance that is capable of addressing and prioritizing it over other initiatives, such as revenue generation and urgent risk reduction.

The reality is that simplicity is highly valuable, but it is not simple and straightforward.

In this webinar Dave Aron,  (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) GartnerDistinguished VP Analyst explores best practices that highly experienced executives use to achieve successful business and technology simplification.

Discussion Topics:

  • Understand how successful executives conduct simplification initiatives
  • Explore the 5 principles for simplification success
  • Simplify your enterprise strategy and the future in mind
