Course overview

About this course

Portfolio Management is the application of management activities to a collection of programs, projects and/or operations to achieve strategic business objectives. Portfolio Management is not just about ensuring profits but cohesively binding projects within the portfolio, so that they work in tandem to achieve global goals of the organization. As a Portfolio Manager, you would be required to manage various aspects such as time, cost, resources and so on by applying portfolio management best practices.
