Presented by ESI International

Thursday 13th March 2008, Simpson's-in-the-Strand, WC2R OEU, London

Project management is rapidly becoming a standard way of doing business in many organisations. The key to productivity is often found in how we manage projects, which are the tools of implementing the business strategy of an organisation. Every project in an organisation should contribute to its strategic plan. But how can we ensure this linkage?

We need to make sure that we integrate projects within the strategic plan. This integration requires a process for selecting and prioritising projects by their contribution to the plan. This seminar will focus on various techniques used in industry to select and prioritise projects.
