"Project management is like juggling three balls - time, cost and quality. Programme management is like a troupe of circus performers standing in a circle, each juggling three balls and swapping balls from time to time." - G. Reiss 
 
  • Aspire Europe research and P3M3® assessments show that the majority of organisations are still at level 1 maturity, which means delivery will be characterised as ad-hoc, heroic or chaotic, depending on which programme you look at
  • When it comes to programme management we know our stuff! Aspire Europe provided the lead author for the 2007 and 2011 editions of Managing Successful Programmes and we have released (in a joint venture with TSO) three MSP® Survival Guides. Have a look at our thought leading publications
 
If you are interested in finding out what programme management is, we have two useful references for you in the insight article section below. However, if you would like to start building on your skills, you will find more information about our qualifications further down.
