Endorsement from companies, validation from participants

Why is the I/EDPM Diploma program so Unique? an experience never experienced

First uniqueness

setting a new benchmark in executive education

Writing Six Reports (PMR1 to PMR6) to transfer knowledge gained to company specific applications

Knowing is not enough; we must apply — Goethe Knowledge

Applications

After every module it is mandatory for participants to write a report outlining the application of the knowledge gained in the module in their company's context. For Class of 2011 and 2012, we have received over 400 reports from 89 participants. There is a tremendous Value Proposition to the companies who nominate their senior executives to IEDPM/EDPM Program for bringing about changes in managing their projects and programs with excellence.

Second uniqueness The process and the outcome, both are equally important. Individual Knowledge

Corporate Knowledge Repository

Writing a Composite Final Report (CFR) outlining a Plan of Action (POA) to bring about some changes in the management of project/ programs in the organisation

At the end of the program, it is mandatory for the participants to write a Composite Final Report (CFR) covering all modules and previous reports. The CFR should cover the major leanings in evolving a Plan of Action (PoA). The recommendations made by participants to their management, are for improving the way projects and programs are managed. After the CFR is reviewed, I2P2M should receive a confirmatory note from their management accepting some or all recommendations.

Date: 9th November 2012 Sub: Acceptance of the Recommendations & Composite Final Report Submitted by Two of our Senior Management Team Members. Sh. Adesh Jain, I would like to sincerely thank you and the I2P2M team for conceptualizing and organizing the l/EDPM programme. Having attended last phase of the programme myself, I found that the course contents, the study material and the faculties were excellent and it was indeed an enriching experience to interact with the world class faculties and leading practitioners in the field of Project Management. I have gone through the Composite Final Report (CFR), submitted by them. The suggestions made by them through various reports and summarized in CFR are noteworthy and very useful. Following recommendations have already been accepted by the management of Adani group and are under implementation. 1. Front End loading approach is being inculcated in Project Life Cycle. 2. Risk management process hasbeen institutionalized. 3). Structured approach for Configuration/Change management 4.Close-out report is being prepared for executed projects etc... We would wholeheartedly support your endeavour to elevate the overall standard in the field of Project, Portfolio & Program Management in India. Best regards,

Vineet Chief Executive Officer

Adani Power Ltd, Ahmedabad, India

Knowledge acquisition requires 'TAPASYA'. (Difficult to gain knowledge, very difficult to loose once acquired)

Third uniqueness Minimum disturbance in office work

To cause minimum disturbance to the organization in their office work and loss of workdays of the participants, the training is specifically held on Fir-Sat-Sun in each module except for the week long USA visit. We apologize to the participants for taking up one weekend every month across the 4 months. Best knowledge is acquired by the participants through learning and interaction with business leaders.

Fourth uniqueness 'Experience Sharing Platforms’

We invite leaders from industry to share their success stories in implementing their projects with excellence. Based on the extensive discussions with three to four business leaders through the day, participants get an opportunity to relate their learning with practical examples as told by the business leaders. There are two Experience Sharing Platform Sessions in I/EDPM Program (July and August). The uniqueness of this 'Experience Sharing Platform' is open dialogue between a resource person and the participants. We have set up a powerful web based Knowledge Sharing Platform (KSP) exclusively for the I2P2M Alumni. Alumni members can share the success stories, innovations in managing projects and new ways of managing complex projects. The I/EDPM faculty members will also have access to the KSP.

Fifth uniqueness Communicate - Communicate - Communicate

Uniqueness, truly unique

International / EDPM Syllabus Module 1

setting a new benchmark in executive education

an experience never experienced

Managing the future is increasingly becoming complex due to rapid technological advances and seamless exchange of information globally. Traditional ways of thinking and doing business can no longer work in today's marketplace. Projects are undertaken to a build a company's future which is uncertain. As the future is not an extension of the past, we must take decisions consciously without letting the past haunt us. Too much dependence on 'engraved or past memories' impacts our ability to manage change. The challenge in managing projects lies in increasing the 'rate of reduction of uncertainties'. It is in this light that we have designed the unique Part Time Diploma Program for senior working managers. Project and Program Management are certainly at the center stage of the world economy. We need to sharpen our PM skills for global competitiveness. Module 1: 14-15-16 June 2013 (Fri-Sat-Sun) New Delhi, India

PM1: Understanding the Totality of Project Management This course covers the eight Project Life Cycle (PLC) phases with 36 Knowledge Areas and 112 Concepts. Conceptualize

Plan & Deliver

Change if Required

Plan Organize Implement Control Integrate Deliver & Closeout Knowledge Leverage

There are eight Project Life Cycle(PLC) phases – Conceptualize, Plan, Organize, Implement, Control, Integrate, Deliver and Closeout and Knowledge Leverage. Each phase has been depicted using different colours of varying intensity showing the intensity of the work during the phase. Conceptualize phase marks the initiation of the project. Plan and Organize phases are closely linked requiring continuous feedback. Deliverables from these phases trigger the start of Implement phase. The Implement and Control phases are closely interlinked through execution of the work, feedback and corrective measures. The work in both these phases generally starts with medium intensity, peaks as the project work intensifies and again subsides as most work is completed. Deliverables from these phases trigger the start of Integrate Phase.

The Integrate and Deliver & Closeout phases go hand in hand. As the work is completed it has to be integrated and made ready for delivery till the integration is completed and all the deliverables are completed. Knowledge leverage (KL) is also important and grows as the project progresses. In the three days, the participants will be able to better appreciate the nuances of managing projects and programs. Before starting this module, to assess the current knowledge level of the participants, their PM knowledge is assessed on a scale of 1 to 10 through the pre-Project Management Knowledge Quotient (PMKQ™) questions. At the end of the 3 days, a post PMKQ™ assessment is again taken by mapping the scores obtained in the CIPM exam in areas that were covered by the PMKQ™ questions. It has been found that after completing this module the PMKQ™ of the participants has improved 2 to 3 folds demonstrating the effectiveness of the training. Some of the 36 Knowledge Areas covered are: • Stakeholder Management • Business Case • Success Criteria • Scope Definition • Time Management • Cost & Finance • Roles & Responsibilities • Risk Management • Procurement • Quality • Information Management & Reporting • Contract Administration • Communication • Organization Structures • Leadership • Motivation • Conflict Resolution • Team Performance • Negotiation • Change Management • Problem Solving • Health, Safety and Environment • Closeout • Post Project Evaluation At the end of this module, PM1, participants will be given a comprehensive examination leading to the Certificate in Project Management (CIPM) credential. This certificate is administered and awarded by Institute of Project Management Certification (IPMC), the National Certification Body of PMA, India. IPMC is accredited by IPMA. IPMA comprises of 55 countries worldwide and is the only Federal Body of PM Associations globally.

Report PMR1 At the end of this module, the PMR1 is to be written by participants suggesting changes in their own organization's work environment in view of the eight project life cycle phases covering 36 knowledge areas. This report will take about 10 hours of homework. Target date for submitting the above report is 7th July 2013.

Strategies are realized through undertaking of projects and programs. 70-90 percentage of organizations fail to realize success from their strategies. This is the observation made by Kaplan and Norton. Strategies failure lies in effective management of projects and portfolios. Some of the topics to be covered in this module are: Aligning strategy execution and implementation with new business realities; managing organizational and individual change; moving from mission critical factors to innovation & ideas leadership; critical success factors; specific strategic choices for project excellence and crafting and executing strategy. There will be a variety of case studies for classroom discussions and presentations such as Kennedy's Moon Speech, Swatch watch, and reinventing project management for your organization related to real-time application to your organization. The base book used for the Case Studies will be Dr. Jain's leading book 'Crafting & Executing Strategies'. A copy of the book will be provided as reading material to each participant. PM2B: Experience Sharing Session (14 July 2013)

We invite leaders from industry to share their success stories in implementing their projects with excellence. Based on the extensive discussions with three to four business leaders through the day, participants get an opportunity to relate their learning with practical examples as told by the business leaders.
