Project versus Program Management

Glen Alleman has a great post on the differences between project versus program management. Some of the highlights:

* The project manager tries to keep change to a minimum while Program managers expect change and even embrace it

* Success is measured by budget, on time, and products delivered to specification versus Success is measured in terms of Return on Investment

* Leadership style focuses on task delivery and directive in order to meet the success criteria versus Leadership style focuses on managing relationships, and conflict resolution.
