ITAG Breakfast Briefing
Successful Project Management:
Consistently Critical to Your Company

Presented by:
Bruce R. Govan
President, Govan Consulting, LLC

Projects: those time-bounded efforts that create something new and unique. They seem so straight forward at inception and we approach them with such enthusiasm. Why is it so difficult to conclude them on schedule, within budget, and to the complete satisfaction of those affected by their outcome? Information technology projects in particular seem more prone than most to have a notoriously poor track record. Why is that and more importantly, how can your business consistently improve its projects’ outcomes?

• Why project management matters
  • What are the benefits of successful project management?
• How businesses sabotage their own projects
• What are the true costs of project failure?
• What does successful project management look like?
• What standards exist for project management?
  • Does project management differ by industry?
  • How does one learn project management?
  • What are PMI and PMP, and why should we care?
• What you can do today to improve your projects
  

The Bottom Line: Successful project management brings consistent, tangible benefits, organizationally, financially, and competitively. The alternative can be a matter of survival.
