Download or read book PM2 Programme Management written by and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The PM2-Programme Management (PM2-PgM) guide is a framework developed to support institutions and organisations using PM2 (the European Commission's official Project Management Methodology) to effectively run their Programmes. It has been developed as an extension of PM2, enhancing its overall offering. A 'Programme' is defined as collection of projects and tasks aimed towards a common goal, which are managed in a coordinated way to obtain benefits and control that could not be obtained from managing each project or task individually. Programmes may also include work outside the scope of the initial projects. Programme Management is the process of managing these interrelated projects to better achieve the programme's objectives and benefits. This set of programme management guidelines and tools are field / domain agnostic and thus applicable to any type of industry or business. While PM2-PgM is fully aligned with PM2 and developed upon its successful legacy, it also incorporates elements from a wide range of globally accepted programme management best-practices, described in standards and methodologies, as well as relevant operational experience from the European Institutions. PM2-PgM provides programme management guidance and support. This newly-released guide includes: - A set of programme management processes and activities; - Artefact templates; - Guidelines for applying the processes and using the artefacts; and - A set of effective mindsets.

Download or read book The Insider written by Antonios Karvounis and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-05 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new EU Programming Period 2014-2020 holds lots of opportunities to fund innovative ideas and projects. The architecture of European direct grants (European competitive programmes) continues to offer a wide range of funding opportunities in the EU member states but also a series of obligations for the beneficiaries and project coordinators during the whole project life cycle. Dr. Antonios Karvounis, a certified Project Manager (PMP®), member of management and evaluation committees (since 2006), national contact point, trainer and expert on European Programmes at the Hellenic Ministry of Interior, analysing all the stages of the EU funded Project life cycle in the framework of the project management standards and terminology of Project Management Institute's (PMI) PMBOK® Guide - the globally recognized standard and guide for project management profession - provides the EU project coordinators, work package leaders and beneficiaries with all those tools needed to prepare, submit and manage proposals for sustainable EU funded projects. It is understandable that one may not employ all the project management tools while managing EU funded projects – especially those with low budget. Yet, ignoring entirely aspects of project management may lead to a heavy loss or misuse of resources, wrong decisions on selecting the proper partners, imprecise definition of the project scope, inaccurate activity duration and so on. Competitive bidding for funds, which is the main focus of this book, is often not used effectively or it may be denied due to poor planning. To compete, you need a good idea of what you can offer the funder and how you can integrate a call for projects into your own plans. The challenge becomes to identify priorities that you and the funding institutions (that is, the European Commission agencies) have in common. If you are to maintain your own vision, this is crucial. Otherwise, your organisation risks being a mere “implementing agency” for other people's ideas and policy. So, knowledge about opportunities for financing within different EU competitive programmes, procedures and knowledge is essential for development of project proposals, as well as knowledge and best practices for management of EU projects, which are usually distributed, complex, multinational and multicultural. Hopefully, the book's approach will make it a useful management tool for many EU funded projects.

Download or read book Direct Democracy in the EU written by Steven Blockmans and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-01-15 with total page 467 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Union is grappling with a democracy problem. The succession of crises which have plagued the increasingly executive EU for years, has led to a rising cacophony of voices calling for fundamental change to the integration project. Yet despite the seismic shock of the Brexit referendum and the electoral upsets by nativist parties across the continent, few of the plans for EU reform include concrete proposals to reduce the age-old democratic deficit. This book is concerned with the two-pronged question of how the relationship between citizens, the state and EU institutions has changed, and how direct democratic participation can be improved in a multi-layered Union. As such, this edited volume focuses not on populism per se, nor does it deeply engage with policy and output legitimacy. Rather, the research is concerned with process and polity. Building on the notion of increasing social, economic and political interdependence across borders, this volume asks how a sense of solidarity and European identity can be rescued from the bottom up by politically empowering citizens to ‘take back control’ of their EU.

Download or read book The Ever changing Union written by Christian Egenhofer and published by CEPS. This book was released on 2009 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Ever-Changing Union" provides a concise overview of the EU's history, institutional structures and decision-making processes. As such, its aim is not to cover the breadth or complexity of information that can now be found in EU text books; this overview should provide the reader with all the information required to gain access to a complex institutional system that has been changing ever since its creation. In the first section the European integration process is described from its beginnings in the early 1950s to the current ratification problems of the Treaty of Lisbon. A second part presents the EU's main institutions with their distinct features and a third explains how these institutions interact within the European decision-making process as a whole. In addition, the Reader includes an overview of fundamental principles of the European integration process, a comparison between the EU and federalist systems, the basic features of the EU budget and the key innovations to be introduced by the Treaty of Lisbon. The book is written for those with an initial or occasional interest in European policies and politics. More particularly, the authors believe it to be useful for civil servants, diplomats, businesses, NGO representatives as well as students and scholars who encounter the European Union in their work.
