Team training for organisations
Yes. MSP can still be valuable if you’re new to formal delivery roles, because it explains how programmes are structured, governed and steered. That said, programme roles usually involve coordinating work across teams, so it helps to build practical experience by supporting or managing workstreams as you progress.
Where should I start - Foundation or Practitioner?Importance of programmes
Differences between programmes and projectsFoundation is the usual starting point if you’re new to MSP. Practitioner is for applying MSP in realistic programme scenarios and is typically taken after Foundation.
Do you offer MSP training for teams or organisations?Programmes are formed of related projects, managed together to harness benefits unachievable when managed in isolation. By leveraging
programme management techniques, they extract advantages unavailable to standalone projects.Yes. We deliver private training for organisations and can tailor the focus, delivery approach and scheduling to match your governance and programme goals.While projects zero in on specific deliverables,
programmes
gravitate towards the realization of strategic outcomes and benefits. Generally, programmes boast a broader view than projects, overseeing a suite of interlinked projects all aimed at a common goal.
Take, for instance, the 2012 London Olympics. It was steered as a holistic programme, where individual endeavours, from stadium constructions and opening ceremonies to infrastructure development, were integrated projects within this expansive programme.
Programmes
serve as the bridge between organizational strategy and individual projects, playing a pivotal role in converting strategic goals into actionable projects. They ensure that these projects align with and achieve the envisaged strategic results.
Programmes manage the interrelations, potential risks, and possible discord among the related
projects
, thereby heightening the probability of meeting strategic aims. Furthermore, they oversee the recognition and quantification of benefits as projects come to fruition.Thus, programme management is paramount in driving strategic change and transformation within organizations.
