Programme Management - Public Classroom Courses

Programme Management

Programme managers are, above all else, change agents. Their role has evolved in most organisations from that of managing multiple projects, to implementing business strategy through an integrated portfolio of projects involving the management of multiple teams of professionals, as well as executive-level stakeholders. As such, the programme manager today requires a refined set of business and leadership skills that are vastly different from that of a project manager.

Taking Charge of Organisational Change
