ProgM 2016-17 Review

Major publication of

Introduction to

Programme

Management

(Second Edition)

Publications

This substantial refresh of APM Introduction to Programme Management brings

practitioners up-to-date with the latest developments in the discipline.

As well as the fundamental principles – what a programme is, how it works and how to

review progress – the guide also explores the changing environment in which

programmes exist, their relationship to the strategic context of organisations as well as

‘new’ frameworks and ways of working.

APM Introduction to Programme Management 2nd edition is one of APM’s core

introductory texts. Written by experienced practitioners from APM’s Programme

Management Specific Interest Group (SIG), it is recommended reading for anyone

joining a programme team – or those who want to know how to interact with the

programme.

Introduction to Programme Management

(Second Edition)

“This update to APM Introduction to Programme Management brings new insights as to what

programme management is all about. It is an ‘easy read’ for the top executives, for those

relatively new to programme management who have a thirst for knowledge and for the

project management community who should, and need to, understand how their project

management skills play into the ‘bigger picture’.”

Sir John Armitt
