Quick Tips for Effective Program Management

Program Management isn't just about managing multiple projects, there's a lot more to it. It's about managing one or more programs with similar/different projects mapped to varied business objectives to improve organizational performance.

1. Look at the bigger picture and be a part of overall Organizational strategy.
2. Be aligned with OKRs to define right KPIs and execute it all the way through.
3. Make execution easier with continuous stakeholder engagement, feedback loops/reviews, risk management, and retrospectives/lessons learned.
4. Make budgeting and forecasting easier with funding limit reconciliation, but it has to be a regular practice tracking the Change requests if any being approved.
5. Adopt and tailor the development approach (Agile, Waterfall, or Hybrid) as per the business needs, customer requirements, timeline, and ways of working.
