Innovation Project Management: On-Demand Companies need growth for survival. Companies cannot grow simply through cost reduction and reengineering efforts. This program describes the relationship that needs to be established between innovation, business strategy, and project management to turn a creative idea into a reality. We will explore the importance of identifying the components of an innovative culture, existing differences, challenges, and the new set of skills needed in innovation project management. Companies need growth for survival. Companies cannot grow simply through cost reduction and reengineering efforts. Innovation is needed and someone must manage these innovation projects. Over the past two decades, there has been a great deal of literature published on innovation and innovation management. Converting a creative idea into reality requires projects and some form of project management. Unfortunately, innovation projects, which are viewed as strategic projects, may not be able to be managed using the traditional project management philosophy we teach in our project management courses. There are different skill sets needed, different tools, and different life-cycle phases. Innovation varies from industry to industry and even companies within the same industry cannot come to an agreement on how innovation project management should work. This program describes the relationship that needs to be established between innovation, business strategy, and project management to turn a creative idea into a reality. We will explore the importance of identifying the components of an innovative culture, existing differences, challenges, and the new set of skills needed in innovation project management. What you Will Learn Explain the links needed to bridge innovation, project management, and business strategy Describe the different types of innovation and the form of project management each require Identify the differences between traditional and innovation project management, especially regarding governance, human resources management challenges, components of an innovative culture and competencies needed by innovation project managers Establish business value and the importance of new metrics for measuring and reporting business value Relate innovation to business models and the skills needed to contribute in the business model development Recognize the roadblocks affecting innovation project management and their cause to determine what actions can be taken Determine the success and failure criteria of an innovation project Foundation Concepts Understanding innovation Role of innovation in a company Differences between traditional (operational) and strategic projects Innovation management Differences between innovation and R&D Differing views of innovation Why innovation often struggles Linking Innovation Project Management to Business Strategy The business side of innovation project management The need for innovation targeting Getting close to the customers and their needs The need for line-of-sight to the strategic objectives The innovation enterprise environmental factors Tools for linking Internal Versus External (Co-creation) Innovation Open versus closed innovation Open innovation versus crowdsourcing Benefits of internal innovation Benefits of co-creation (external) innovation Selecting co-creation partners The focus of co-creation The issues with intellectual property Understanding co-creation values Understanding the importance of value-in-use Classification of Innovations and Innovation Projects Types of projects Types of innovations Competency-enhancing versus competency-destroying innovations Types of innovation novelty Public Sector of Innovation Comparing public and private sector project management Types of public service innovations Reasons for some public sector innovation failures An Introduction to Innovation Project Management Why traditional project management may not work The need for a knowledge management system Differences between traditional and innovation project management Issues with the 'one-size-fits-all' methodology Using end-to-end innovation project management Technology readiness levels (TRLs) Integrating Kanban principles into innovation project management Innovation and the Human Resources Management Challenge Obtaining resources Need for a talent pipeline Need for effective resource management practices Prioritizing resource utilization Using organizational slack Corporate Innovation Governance Types of innovation governance Business Impact Analysis (BIA) Innovation Project Portfolio Management Office (IPPMO) Using nondisclosure agreements, secrecy agreements, confidentiality agreements, and patents Adverse effects of governance decisions Innovation Cultures Characteristics of a culture for innovation Types of cultures Selecting the right people Linking innovation to rewards Impact of the organizational reward system Innovation Competencies Types of innovation leadership The need for active listening Design thinking Dealing with ambiguity, uncertainty, risks, crises, and human factors Value-Based Innovation Project Management Metrics Importance of innovation project management metrics Understanding value-driven project management Differences between benefits and value - and when to measure Traditional versus the investment life cycle Benefits harvesting Benefits and value sustainment Resistance to change Tangible and intangible innovation project management metrics Business Model Innovation Business model characteristics Impact of disruptive innovation Innovation Roadblocks Roadblocks and challenges facing project managers Ways to overcome the roadblocks Defining Innovation Success and Failure Categories for innovation success and failure Need for suitability and exit criteria Reasons for innovation project failure Predictions on the Future of Innovation Project Management The Six Pillars of changing times Some uses for the new value and benefits metrics
Work Breakdown Structures: In-House Training It's amazing how often project managers begin the project planning process by making an outlined list of every task they believe will be required to complete a project and then proclaim they have created the work breakdown structure (WBS) for the project. The result is a list of hundreds, or even thousands of tasks, many of them having durations of a few days or a few hours. Essentially, what they have done is create a 'to do' list, which they then use as a 'checklist' to measure progress. This approach leads to, and even encourages, micromanagement of the resources working on the project without consideration of more critical aspects of project management such as: requirements management, risk management, procurement management, estimating, scheduling, executing, and controlling. Further, it makes it impossible to see the big picture, at levels of detail, in keeping with the needs of sponsors, clients, project and functional managers, team leaders, and project performers. Join us for this exciting program and learn how to use the WBS to make better-informed business decisions. What You Will Learn You will learn how to: Describe the need for a project WBS Describe the WBS role in the project Gain practical experience in the development, decomposition, and use of the WBS Determine the appropriate level of detail in the WBS. Explain how the WBS integrates with project requirements, risk, procurement, estimating, scheduling, and overall project execution. Provide the basic tools to enhance efficient re-use of key information in your future projects Foundation Concepts Key definitions History of the WBS Importance of the WBS Overall structure Terminology Other breakdown structures WBS tools WBS & Scope Project scope management processes Specification of the project objectives WBS design based on project deliverable WBS decomposition process and 'The 100% rule' Work Packages and Control Accounts WBS & Risk Risk management planning and WBS Risk identification to enhance the WBS Risk analysis and the WBS Risk responses and updating the WBS Implementing risk response and Monitoring risks and the WBS WBS & Estimating Use of WBS in the estimating process Components and work packages Sizing and algorithmic estimates WBS & Scheduling Component Scheduling - High-Level Milestones WBS activity decomposition WBS elements dependencies Work Package Level Schedules Responsibility assignment matrix WBS & Execution and Control Earned Value Management and tracking of work performance Progress reports, forecasts, and corrective and preventive actions used to manage work performance Necessary information to close out a project
