Portfolio Management - Secrets to Success

Mr. Paul Hodgkins
Executive Director of Paul Hodgkins Project Consultancy
Former Siemens PM@Siemens Programme Executive for North West Europe

 

Abstract:

In his special lecture, Paul will explain the growing value and importance of effective portfolio management.

He will explain how, done well, portfolio management can empower organisations in pursuit of their strategic goals and objectives.  He will talk of the skills, capabilities and attributes that outstanding portfolio managers must possess and the five organisational qualities that must exist in business and be consistent, if business is to truly undertake portfolio management well and in doing so, keep one step ahead of its competition.

And finally, when it comes to portfolio management, Paul will challenge those listening to consider one of the greatest philosophical questions of our time; what came first, the chicken or the egg?
