Portfolio Management Delivering on Strategy

Portfolio management is becoming the ‘must have’ for organizations to prosper and survive in this decade and beyond. No longer can the organizational focus be one of following best and repeatable practices as resource limitations mean only those programs projects and operational work that add business value can and should be pursued. Executives are focusing on strategic ability and managing complexity which can only be done through a disciplined portfolio process in ensuring the best mix of programs projects and operational work is under way. In turn the portfolio is constantly in flux as difficult decisions are made if a project for example is no longer contributing to business value and providing benefits and should be terminated to reallocate resources to one of higher priority. Commitment to this difficult approach is necessary at all levels and communication is required so everyone knows how their work contributes to the organization’s strategic goals and objectives. Portfolio Management: Delivering on Strategy Second Edition focuses on the benefits of portfolio management to the organization. Its goal is to provide senior executives a view on how portfolio management can deliver organizational strategy. The emphasis is on the specific aspects within the portfolio management discipline and how each aspect should be managed from a business perspective and not necessarily from a portfolio management perspective. Highlights of the book include: Agile portfolio management Delivering organizational value Portfolio management and uncertainty Portfolio governance Marketing a portfolio Portfolio management success Starting with a review of the project portfolio concept and its development this book is a reference for executives and practitioners in the field as well as a students and researchers studying portfolio management. | Portfolio Management Delivering on Strategy

Vulnerability Management

Vulnerability management (VM) has been around for millennia. Cities tribes nations and corporations have all employed its principles. The operational and engineering successes of any organization depend on the ability to identify and remediate a vulnerability that a would-be attacker might seek to exploit. What were once small communities became castles. Cities had fortifications and advanced warning systems. All such measures were the result of a group recognizing their vulnerabilities and addressing them in different ways. Today we identify vulnerabilities in our software systems infrastructure and enterprise strategies. Those vulnerabilities are addressed through various and often creative means. Vulnerability Management demonstrates a proactive approach to the discipline. Illustrated with examples drawn from Park Foreman’s more than three decades of multinational experience the book demonstrates how much easier it is to manage potential weaknesses than to clean up after a violation. Covering the diverse realms that CISOs need to know and the specifics applicable to singular areas of departmental responsibility he provides both the strategic vision and action steps needed to prevent the exploitation of IT security gaps especially those that are inherent in a larger organization. Completely updated the second edition provides a fundamental understanding of technology risks—including a new chapter on cloud vulnerabilities and risk management—from an interloper’s perspective. This book is a guide for security practitioners security or network engineers security officers and CIOs seeking understanding of VM and its role in the organization. To serve various audiences it covers significant areas of VM. Chapters on technology provide executives with a high-level perspective of what is involved. Other chapters on process and strategy although serving the executive well provide engineers and security managers with perspective on the role of VM technology and processes in the success of the enterprise.

Leading Megaprojects A Tailored Approach

The performance of megaprojects is questionable and a large percentage of them fail in one dimension or another. The challenges that contribute to these failures are known. Then why do these projects still fail at a high rate? Leading Megaprojects: A Tailored Approach examines the challenges facing megaprojects and more importantly successes in delivering megaprojects. To close the performance gaps in megaproject deliveries the book presents a customizable model that professionals and organizations can use to increase the chance of successful project delivery. To illustrate the model it uses examples and case studies primarily from capital projects with engineering and construction components. The book also explains how the approach can be applied to all projects regardless of industry or domain. The book emphasizes the role of leadership because it takes the point of view that megaprojects cannot be successful without great leadership due to their massive size complexity number of parties and stakeholders involved and cost among other vital factors. Leaders can define the path for a megaproject to guide seasoned managers and project managers to successful closure. The tailored approach is based on a stage-gate project life cycle model which covers projects from concept to success. However it is not limited to a purist form of traditional project management. It is a tailored methodological approach with an emphasis on leading the work end-to-end at the project level along with the management of every stage of the project. Also it presents the integration of the business product delivery and operations management into a cohesive approach.
