Managing International Projects | PPMT.X411

Increasing acquisitions, mergers, innovation, the pressure of change, and the shorter life cycle of competing products demand viable businesses to have global footprints. Multinational organizations rely on international projects for growth, as globalization affects nearly every industry. However, most projects, particularly international ones, are expected to fail to meet their stated or planned end goals due to challenges in adapting to cultural, technical, or collaborative processes. Surveys of various institutions indicate that only 40% of international projects meet their planned milestones.

In this course, we provide project managers with tools and practices to help them succeed in developing and managing international projects in the Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) era. You will learn critical success factors in managing global projects including the use of objective metrics, applicable methods and the latest GAI's enhancements. This course, at a high level, covers techniques for developing and managing projects in the international business arena and finding winning partners in emerging markets.
