Connecting the Dots : Aligning Projects with Objectives in Unpredictable Times, Hardback Book

Connecting the Dots : Aligning Projects with Objectives in Unpredictable Times Hardback

Hardback

Description

Organizations are struggling for greater return on their multibillion-dollar technology and project-related investments.

Individual projects may be useful, but when examined collectively, they often work at cross-purposes, duplicate each other's efforts, or aim for obsolescing business objectives. And all are competing for scarce resources. In today's earnings-driven business environment, companies must look to their portfolios to better deliver on objectives and propel the organization forward.Based on their experience with a variety of companies, authors Cathleen Benko and distinguished professor F.

Warren McFarlan have developed an alignment approach that better connects an organization's project portfolio to its corporate objectives in a manner responsive to today's unpredictable environment."Connecting the Dots" provides a scalable framework and practical tools for better aligning a company's: project portfolio with its objectives; individual projects with each other; and portfolio and objectives with the volatile environment. Better-aligned companies enhance business/technology performance by increasing shareholder value and confidence and improving the portfolio's return on investment.

This in-the-trenches guidebook helps companies capture this latent value while building a more adaptive organization.

Cathleen Benko is Braxton's Global e-Business Leader.

F. Warren McFarlan is the Senior Associate Dean and Albert H.

Gordon Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School.
