Gaining the Competitive Edge
Strategic Advantage in your Sector
through Project Management Excellence
This invitation-only workshop will bring together senior executives from member organizations across our global Networks. Over these two days, we will analyse how our organizations can best gain the competitive edge that is so essential to strategic advantage and business success. |
In recent years project management has becoming increasingly embedded across almost all sectors as “the way to get things done”; in consequence there is now a plethora of models for what may be considered to be “best practice.”
In reality, however, the strategic drivers for project success will vary according to industry, portfolio content, organizational culture and the external environment.
Using a well-established but generic set of processes and practices may not be sufficient to guarantee delivery in every context. Strategic advantage comes from the organization’s ability to identify, and internalise, the right set of project management processes to take account of the context in which they operate.
This workshop will bring together members of Human Systems’ global Network to discuss and debate the key drivers of context. We will consider how project management can adapt process, practice and people development approaches to secure competitive edge. The workshop will focus on three questions:
-
What are the key dimensions of ‘context’ in relation to delivery of the project portfolio?
-
What strategic drivers are characteristic of specific industries, cultures and project types?
-
How can organizations adapt their approach to the management of projects to leverage the context in which they operate, and turn this to competitive advantage?
The cost of the workshop itself is covered by your membership. Travel and accommodation will be the responsibility of individual delegates, but we will be negotiating a discounted accommodation package. |
