Managing a Program
In this chapter, we’ll discuss in more depth how to manage a program. As discussed earlier in this book, program management builds on the foundations of project management by utilizing the same key management areas. However, there are some differences due to the larger scope and broader impact that a program has compared to a project within it, so both of these concepts play a substantial role in defining the differences in management techniques.
We’ll explore how to manage a program by doing the following:
- Defining a program
- Deciding when to build a program
- Tracking a program
Let’s begin!
