About the web seminar: 

The Project Management Institute Pharmaceutical Specific Interest Group has sponsored 50-plus item surveys in 2001, 2002, 2005, and in the fourth quarter of 2008. There have been up to 711 respondents to each of the surveys. We have determined people’s profiles (e.g. what country they live in), the organization’s profile (e.g. large pharma, small pharma, biotech, CRO, consultant, etc.), and most of the questions were about project management in the person’s organization.

The seminar will describe the most interesting data from the 2008 survey and how it compares to previous surveys. For example, there will be a comparison of how project management occurs in large pharma, small pharma and biotech. Differences in how project management is performed in the US vs. EU vs. Canada will be shown. Comparisons between virtual and defined project management groups will be explored. Single vs. multiple function project management groups will be contrasted.

What you will learn:
- How project management occurs in large pharma, small pharma, and biotech
- Differences in how project management is performed in the US, EU and Canada
- Contrasts between virtual and defined project management group’s practices
- Comparisons between single and multiple function project management practices
