BOOK EXCERPT:

Deliver “Exceptional Business Value” aligned to “Organizational Strategy” through structured program management and stand out from the crowd by attaining the elite PgMP credential Programs are vehicles for organizations to realize their strategic objectives and goals. As the industry shifts from just delivery of projects and programs to a more value-driven and benefits-oriented model, program management acts as a key piece in the puzzle that allows organizations to extract the most business value & benefits from a group of related initiatives that are managed as one program. The biggest reason why strategic programs fail is due to the strategy execution gap, where the people executing the strategy don’t understand “Why” we are doing this or “Where” we are going with this. The Program Manager is a key role that bridges this strategy execution gap, who leads the program towards success by keeping the team focused on the end goals that are aligned to the organizational strategy and direction. This book will help you: • Understand the program management performance domains as per the Standard for Program Management by PMI • Overcome commonly faced challenges as a program manager, and successfully deliver benefits and business value • Support your organization’s pursuit of strategic objectives and goals through effective program management • Understand the PgMP exam syllabus & contents easily, with pictures, charts, and examples to aid learning • Submit the PgMP Application as well as prepare for the PgMP exam • Learn Tips & Tricks that will help you take the PgMP exam with confidence The demand for competent program managers who can help organizations achieve their strategic objectives is growing, and holding the PMI-PgMP credential helps you demonstrate strong subject matter knowledge & expertise in this area and become an invaluable asset to any organization.

The Sensible Guide To Program Management Professional Pgmp Success

eBook Download

BOOK EXCERPT:

A Sensible Guide to Program Management Professional (PgMP)® Success is for program managers preparing to take the PgMP exam based on The Standard for Program Management – 4th Edition (PgM4 Standard). It is designed for busy professionals whose responsibilities have taken them into the realm of coordinating, facilitating, managing, and leading programs. Program managers are leaders who are directly managing large amounts of project resources for their organizations. This study guide addresses three main concerns facing PgMP exam candidates: What are the essential concepts, processes, and tools that form the foundation of today’s program management? Since program management is still an emerging profession with professionals often working in different ways, what does this mean for a "standard" exam? More specifically, how does that impact your ability to pass the PgMP exam? What is the best way to prepare for the PgMP exam? To address the first concern, this book highlights the underlying rationale for program management: why it exists in organizations; why it is becoming ever more important; what programs are, especially for the purpose of passing the exam; how to think like a portfolio manager; and what the most important concepts, processes, and tools are for this profession. By simplifying complex ideas and communicating them in plain English with relevant examples, this book aims to help readers not only to pass the PgMP exam but also to serve as an essential guide for program managers. For the second concern, this book differs from other study guides by describing the author’s personal experience as a program manager and addressing the most pressing questions for each of the performance domains in The Standard for Program Management. To address the last concern, this book contains 420 practice questions, access to an online exam simulator and an online PgMP community, and a time-tested approach for passing the PgMP exam.

While my previous book, the Program Management Professional (PgMP) Handbook, covered the concepts you need to understand to prepare for the PgMP exam, it did not include sample test questions that you could use to assess your preparedness for the exam itself. In order to succeed in the exam, practicing with good quality sample questions is vital. This book will help you: - Assess your readiness for the PgMP Exam - Test your understanding of the Program Management concepts that would be tested in the PgMP Exam - Practice with 400+ sample questions that vary in length, complexity, and topics to prepare you for the PgMP Exam - Review the key points you should remember from an exam perspective
