4th Annual Pharma Management Workshop


The “P” in PM is as much about
‘PEOPLE’ MANAGEMENT as it is about ‘PROJECT’ MANAGEMENT 
– Cornelius Fichtner

Project management in the pharmaceutical industry is gaining a lot more traction across the globe, and the interest in this methodology to work on projects is here to stay as organisations across the globe see the value of it. Professionals who have been trained in project management certifications are in great demand around the world.
   

Whether or not you hold the official title of project manager, chances are you'll be called upon to lead some sort of project at some time.

Why do you need Project Management Training? 

Organizations that incorporated project management training boosted their project success rate by 26%.

 

Projects that met all of the organizational objectives provided 

2X
the amount of training

and without the training the projects failed or partly succeeded.

 

According to PMI, 67% of project managers believe that project management training contributes to better project performance across all business KPIs.
 

Organizations that allocated
7% of their budget
towards project management training completed their projects successfully than the organizations that allocated only 4% towards training.

Understanding the growing response of project management in the pharmaceutical industry CPhI takes pride in introducing its 4th Annual Pharma Management Workshop happening on 21- 22 March 2016, at The Westin, Mumbai.
