Executive sponsorship is the cornerstone of successful projects. Without active leadership and support, even the most well-planned projects can face significant hurdles. The Executive Essentials for Project Sponsors and Steering Committees (ESC) course from IMT-PM is designed to provide senior leaders with the tools, frameworks, and strategic insights needed to drive project success from the top.
Effective executive sponsorship goes beyond approval—it involves taking ownership of the project’s direction, ensuring that it is strategically aligned with business goals, and committing necessary resources for its success. This course emphasizes the critical role of project sponsors and steering committees in navigating the escalation process, addressing risks, and making high-impact decisions that keep projects on track and aligned with organizational priorities.
Participants will learn how to:
- Ensure strategic alignment of projects to maximize outcomes.
- Provide clear resource commitments to avoid project delays and bottlenecks.
- Implement an effective escalation process to resolve issues quickly and maintain momentum.
- Drive ongoing executive engagement to ensure successful project delivery.
