Essential reading for any existing or budding Programme Manager
Managing Successful Programmes describes the OGC's (the Office of Government Commerce) approach to managing change and delivering business benefits. As a Senior Programme Manager this book provided me with all of the information and knowledge that I needed to sell my services to my clients whether public or private sector.
Unlike PRINCE2 it is succinct surprisingly free of jargon and rather than focusing on the detail gives an overview of key areas leaving the day to day application at your discretion.
The chapters on benefits and stakeholder management are particularly useful with examples of powerful methods that can be used in the real world to identify and analyze stakeholders.
In all a clear well structured book ideal for any involved in Programme Management.
A good theory manual for students, lacking in practical apps
This title provides a good overview of step by step theoretical models for Programme Management, however it lacks the true in depth information required for practical application.
A good buy for under graduates looking to grow their knowledge in this complex arena, or for new programme managers looking for a reference manual.
