Beyond these attributes, this is also the only book that addresses one of the biggest challenges for busy professionals as they tackle the PfMP exam - how to develop the optimal mindset required to think like a portfolio manager to address the experience-based questions. Similar but more extensive than other PMI certifications, the PfMP exam questions are heavily experience based. This means the mere memorization of PMI's recommended books is not sufficient. The book introduces a proven approach to satisfactorily completing the exam and it includes 400 practice questions, exam aids, lesson plans, and important concepts. To prepare for the "experience-based" questions, the author has taken a Socratic approach based on questions and answers to stimulate critical thinking and to illuminate ideas. Beyond the basic, this guide contains additional sample deliverables and approaches that will help you professionally. This book is part of a larger suite of products and services to help organizations and project professionals to achieve execution excellence. The author's company, PMO Advisory, also offers additional PfMP practice questions and two types of bootcamps. For more information, visit www.pmoadvisory.com/pfmp. Why PfMP?

Download or read book The Sensible Guide to Program Management Professional PgMP Success written by Te Wu and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2021-07-27 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Sensible Guide to Program Management Professional (PgMP)® Success is for program managers preparing to take the PgMP exam based on The Standard for Program Management – 4th Edition (PgM4 Standard). It is designed for busy professionals whose responsibilities have taken them into the realm of coordinating, facilitating, managing, and leading programs. Program managers are leaders who are directly managing large amounts of project resources for their organizations. This study guide addresses three main concerns facing PgMP exam candidates: What are the essential concepts, processes, and tools that form the foundation of today’s program management? Since program management is still an emerging profession with professionals often working in different ways, what does this mean for a "standard" exam? More specifically, how does that impact your ability to pass the PgMP exam? What is the best way to prepare for the PgMP exam? To address the first concern, this book highlights the underlying rationale for program management: why it exists in organizations; why it is becoming ever more important; what programs are, especially for the purpose of passing the exam; how to think like a portfolio manager; and what the most important concepts, processes, and tools are for this profession. By simplifying complex ideas and communicating them in plain English with relevant examples, this book aims to help readers not only to pass the PgMP exam but also to serve as an essential guide for program managers. For the second concern, this book differs from other study guides by describing the author’s personal experience as a program manager and addressing the most pressing questions for each of the performance domains in The Standard for Program Management. To address the last concern, this book contains 420 practice questions, access to an online exam simulator and an online PgMP community, and a time-tested approach for passing the PgMP exam.
