Commenting on the programme, Mohan Kannegal, CEO, India and APAC, Eruditus, said, “Projects are a fundamental part of every company’s business plan. This programme would help the executives attain a competitive edge in their domain. The program would also help the individuals gain an end-to-end understanding of project management and portfolio management from planning to execution; learn the tactical, operational and behavioural aspects of project management; apply new concepts, such as agile management techniques, to daily operational challenges; evaluate and manage projects and teams effectively and enhance the ability to make high-level strategic decisions and drive change. This programme would thus enable the executives to plan and manage the projects in an effective way.”
Prof. Megha Sharma, IIM Calcutta said, “Rapidly changing business landscape and the uncertainties that it brings along have necessitated organisations to adapt to changes quickly. Organisations that are capable of rapidly adapting to environmental changes can not only maintain their current position but have also taken advantage of the changing environment to their benefit. Such organisations irrespective of their size – from start-ups to conglomerates, and industries – from conventional manufacturing firms to platform service businesses, are increasingly adopting the project-oriented structure for better accountability. Climbing up the career ladder in these organisations and successfully leading them requires their managers and leaders to be proficient in project and portfolio management.”
