As organisations run many projects at once, the ability to manage Programs and portfolios — aligning them to strategy and optimising resources across them — becomes a senior leadership discipline. This Program equips directors to lead Programs and portfolios that deliver strategic value.
Designed for director-level leaders, the Program reflects international Program and portfolio management practice used across government, development, and large organisations worldwide. It is directly applicable to any context coordinating multiple projects toward strategic goals.
