PMINJ 2012 Symposium

Introduction

“Strategic Project Management (SPM)” spans the gap between organizational strategy and business results. Long-term success of modern organizations will depend on integrating project management into the organization’s strategic planning initiatives. The SPM approach includes conventional project management practices, and employs additional tools to better deliver the organization’s chosen strategy. SPM extends the project management focus beyond meeting the classic triple constraint (schedule, cost and quality) to better achieve key organizational goals like customer satisfaction, penetration to a new market, increasing market share, long term growth etc. Applying the concepts of SPM would elevate Project Management practices into a source of competitive advantage.

To be successful, the PM community needs a new mindset that will align project management with an organization’s strategic objectives to improve business performance. Project Managers (PMs) with a strategic mindset are concerned about linking projects with broader programs / portfolios.

PMINJ invites you to learn more about SPM at their May 2012 Annual Symposium. This symposium will help you:
