In today’s lean times, dynamic organizations
and business leaders are looking for business-savvy project managers (PMs)
who can maximize return on their investment (ROI). The scope for ROI objectives
is often the organization at large and not just for the project. PMs need
to understand the organization’s business goals and align project goals
with organization’s business strategy. In addition, they need to estimate
and deliver results predictably, to not jeopardize corporate financial
planning and performance figures. These pressures are particularly in evidence
as we start the second decade of the 21st century.
PMINJ invites you to explore and gain valuable
business skills and financial project management techniques from leading
experts on May 2 and 3, 2010 at the Pines Manor in Edison, New Jersey.
On Sunday May 2, we have an afternoon seminar
entitled Debits and Credits for Project Managers: Fundamentals of Accounting
and Related Business Cycles by Anthony Reed, CPA, PMP.
Anthony Reed is an IT professional with
twenty years in management and executive positions for Fortune 500 corporations
and large consulting firms. He has managed multi-million dollar departmental
budgets and staffing blends of international, multi-generational, multi-cultural
employees and consultants. As an adjunct professor, he has taught project
management, accounting, income tax, business management, and information
technology courses. He also developed and taught accounting classes to
small business owners and consulting firms. Anthony Reed holds two graduate
degrees and two undergraduate degrees. He has four books and over 50 articles
published. Finally, Anthony Reed has completed one hundred marathons around
the world on all 7 continents and in 30 States.
On Monday May 3, we have the PMINJ 2010
Regional PM Symposium. The theme this year is “Business-Savvy Project Management”.
One keynote address will be delivered by Anthony Reed. It is entitled Finding
the I in TEAM: Better Team Building Through Individual Building. We
are currently soliciting speakers for multiple track sessions and sponsors
to participate in the event. Topics for consideration, as well as timely,
practical project management techniques and case studies, are:
-
Cash Flow and Capital Management
-
Benefit Realization and Measuring Effectives
-
Estimation
-
Risk Management
-
Business Cases
-
Resource and Contract Management
-
Organizational Change Management
Are you ready to explore this challenging
world of project management speaker Anthony Reed and other experts? Do
you manage your projects like a small business owner? Projects are financial
investments and should be recognized as key elements in the strategies
for achieving business goals and excellence. PMs should be able to think
beyond the immediate horizon in terms of financial reward, risk, and uncharted
territory. Businesses need people who can manage the company’s financial
assets effectively and determine where the most beneficial returns on investment
may be found. This bottom-line driven symposium will supply you with the
business knowledge and project management insights you need.
