The global economy has become synonymous with chaos, unrelentinglevels of corporate competition, rapid change, and previously unimaginable levelsof uncertainty.

What do you think businesses are doing in answer to this globally changing environment? How are they keeping the competitive edge?

Well, an ever growing number of businesses are realizing the immense value that disciplined project management brings to the table and how the use of qualified project managers are consistently delivering better business resultsthan ever before. Business sentiments are changing from the “A penny saved is a penny earned” outlook more towards the “penny wise pound foolish” attitude. This basically boils down to the fact that corporate management used to believe that the cost of project management was not worth the potential gains, whereas today corporate management has realized the massive strategic value project management brings with it.
