“Project Management Maturity
How Does Your Organization Compare?”

A thought-provoking FREE BREAKFAST SEMINAR by ESI International

You are invited to join ESI for an exclusive, complimentary breakfast seminar, "Project Management Maturity - How Does Your Organization Compare?".

  • Date:
  • Sunday, 2nd September 2007

  • Venue:
  • Holiday Inn, Al Khobar, Saudi Arabia

The successful definition, selection, planning, implementation and closeout of projects is a critical set of processes in many organizations. However, far too many of these organizations use unsuitable, inflexible or ineffective project management methodologies – or, worse still, have 'official' methodologies that bear little resemblance to what happens in practice. Leading this seminar will be Peter O’Neill, an instructor with ESI International. This interactive seminar will provide an opportunity to assess your own project management approach against a five level maturity model. Is it 'ad-hoc' with project managers applying (or failing to apply) tools and techniques based on personal preferences? 'Integrated', so that strategic decisions are linked to, and supported by, the selection and implementation of key projects? Or is it at the highest level – 'Continuously Improving' – where the methodology is constantly adapted to the business environment and the needs of the project portfolio? Peter O’Neill will provide examples of each level and a questionnaire to assist you to accurately identify your current situation and – more importantly – plan to improve the effectiveness and integration of project management in your organization.
