Project Management for Managers

Project management training is usually targeted to project managers. But what about your company's executives? The project sponsor and other executives need some knowledge of formal project management as well - for two reasons. First, executives must understand the terminology and concepts that the rest of the staff is learning so that they can communicate intelligently. Second, executives must understand the role they play in ensuring that the project management processes are implemented successfully in their organizations.
