Sinopsis

This publication contains information on the MSP (Managing Successful Programmes) method for implementing projects, covering both programme management principles and processes.

The publication can also be used as a study guide for all those preparing for the MSP Foundation exam.

De la contraportada

Business challenges are forcing organisations to change at an ever increasing rate. These pressures mean that it is no longer enough to design and implement change; real progress in the short term has to be clear and demonstrable. However, more than 50% of change initiatives do not have the intended organisational impact; complex interdependencies and 'knock-on' effects mean even simple proposals can lead to an unexpected outcome. Many organisations now achieve organisational progress through a programme approach that firstly identifies the different tasks required to achieve progress and then manages their delivery.
The advantages of using the programme management method described in this book include:
- It provides a framework for clear decision-making and executing mandates when making choices and setting priorities;
- It encourages a clear definition of tasks, responsibilities and competencies;
- It offers a basis to manage complex, strategic changes;
- It encourages a focus on managing and realising benefits;
- It allows for the real-life scenario of dealing with ongoing changes.
MSP, the method used in this book, is Best Practice based on the experiences of industry experts. Its relevance means that interest in MSP is evolving fast with increasing numbers of specialists gaining certification in this area.
This book offers a good overview of the MSP method. It emphasises the real-life approach of change implementation within the scope of a programme. In addition, this book is a study guide for all those preparing for the MSP Foundation exam and includes a special Exam chapter.
