Unlike projects, which are time-bound and outcome-specific, programs are the strategic backbone that ensures continuity, adaptability, and long-term impact. This webinar will dive deep into the art and discipline of program management—how it drives sustained engagement, supports governance teams in securing resources, and keeps initiatives fresh and aligned with evolving business goals. Whether you're managing cloud services, digital transformation, or partner ecosystems, this session will equip you with the mindset and tools to lead programs that thrive beyond their initial launch.
