Extra Meeting -
Afternoon Seminar Event
Project and
Program Governance
The Project Management Institute (PMI) UK Chapter in
collaboration with ProgM - the Programme Management
Special Interest Group - is pleased to invite you to an
event in Islington on Tuesday 23rd November at 2pm.
Members are encouraged to personally support this event
which will be a great networking opportunity as well as
providing professional development and knowledge
sharing.
The forthcoming Companies Bill (Audit, Investigations
and Community Enterprise), the UK equivalent of the US's
Sarbanes-Oxley Act, will bring new requirements for
governance in all organisation and a key area will be
the governance of programs and projects of change.
PMI and ProgM have brought together four expert
speakers to discuss the implications and requirements
for governance in our organisations. This event will
reveal the findings of the survey in the topic now being
help on the programme management website.
Four selected speakers will each give a presentation
on the topic of governance of projects and
programmes:

Meeting
Defining
projects, programmes and portfolio management:
commonalities and differences
Portfolio and
Program management are now an integral part of the
project manager's environment. Beyond the definitions
(APM, PMI and others) and the tools and techniques
promoted by diverse sellers and associations, what are,
in practice, the implications of these relatively new
terms for managers and businesses?

Beyond
Risk Management - to Assumption Management
The
success of any project or programme is directly
dependant to your effectiveness in managing the inherent
risks. Risk management has been around for a long time
but often becomes a bureaucratic exercise where Risk
Registers are populated with poor quality statements and
little or no effective mitigation results.
Why does
this happen?
