Project Management Institute (PMI) Chicagoland Chapter Hosts 14th Annual Strategic Leadership Forum: Translating Strategy into Execution
WHEELING, Ill. (PRWEB) March 12, 2019 -- Project Management Institute (PMI) Chicagoland Chapter strategically plans to host its 14th Annual Leadership Forum: Translating Strategy into Execution. Successful Strategy Execution is critical to maintaining and growing market presence. Executing a strategy is different from delivering on a typical development program; it requires translating the strategy into an executable plan, often with cooperation across business units. It is difficult to bring everyone on board to understand the leadership vision, especially those who are going to execute the plan. And, most critical, it needs to be successfully implemented.
Strategy execution is a competitive advantage, helping companies to build a portfolio of projects that balance strategic implementation with operational priorities. Strategy execution often requires an agile approach, with in-flight adjustments that keep the program on track with changing conditions.
Don't miss this engaging opportunity to meet with fellow project management leaders and gather industry knowledge and inspiration from each other. Come away with insights for translating strategies into manageable plans, leveraging the project management organization to successfully operationalize your strategy.
