ABSTRACT

THe focus of this book has been on program management leadership and the role that it plays in developing successful programs through better communication, leadership styles, team development, and organizational improvement. We have spent very little time covering the formalized process that PMI outlines, simply because there are many books on the process and very little on program management leadership. While there is plenty written on leadership as a whole, and on becoming that Fortune 500 CEO, program management leadership is a very different topic that deserves additional information added to the overall body of knowledge. While PMI has done a good job in outlining the process of program management, there are still areas that require additional knowledge and reference material to help extend the knowledge of program management. THe role that a program manager plays in team productivity is a crucial one.
