Synopsis:
The Challenge
Are you an “Accidental Project Manager”?
2018 Pulse of the Profession published by Project Management Institute (PMI®) revealed that 9.9% of every dollar is wasted due to poor project performance-that is $99 Million dollars for every $1 Billion invested. Besides financial loss, poorly managed projects often fail to achieve the desired objective causing frustration to end users.
Considering many projects are managed by “Accidental Project Managers”, the above mentioned failure should not be a big surprise. Accidental Project Managers are not formally trained and certified as Project Managers. Professional qualification including Ir. may not equip project managers with relevant competencies especially in the area of cost management, contract management and managing human factors in projects. Project Management Institute (PMI®) was established in 1969 to enhance professionalism in managing project. PMI® has developed comprehensive framework called Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK®) Guide. PMI® also administer examination leading to professional certification of Project Managers.
As a project manager, would you like to be able to deliver successful projects more often and more consistently? This is certainly advantageous for your career and for the reputation of your organization. Unfortunately, there are not many of us who can say we are consistently successful – we usually do deliver something good and useful in the end but how often do we have to spend more money or take longer to do so?
The Solution
Everyone can benefit from a structured approach to project delivery, with clearly defined roles, structured lifecycle and supporting processes. Project Management Professional (PMP®) is globally recognized qualification awarded by PMI®. This talk is designed for aspiring project managers and experienced project managers who are yet to be certified PMP®. Our key topics are:
• Characteristics of a Professional Project Manager.
• How to acquire PMP® certification?
• How to demonstrate competency of a Professional Project Manager?
The Outcome
PMP® certification will enhance your credibility and competency to be an effective project manager. This will certainly improve your ability to deliver successful project with less stress and more control.
