Lean-Agile Portfolio Management Course

$995.00

Description

 

As businesses struggle to keep pace with change and technology, traditional portfolio management needs to adapt. Incorporating a more lean and agile approach to programs and portfolios is needed to get work to flow from ideas to working solutions faster – and to ensure we are focused on delivering and maximizing value across the portfolio. Lean and Agile have brought principles and practices that can make a significant top-down transformation to how organizations large and small deal with challenges to their portfolio management process. In this class you will learn to rethink how you approach portfolio planning, decisions and governance. We take a methodology neutral approach but provide valuable perspectives and thinking – as well as simple and practical methods from various lean and agile frameworks that will allow you to make meaningful improvements with your PPM team.
