Would you like to know how to define the value of Project Management? We have an answer for you! Five episodes ago we spoke with Mike Graupner, PMP about Monkey Management. We gave Mike another visit and had a conversation about his current projects. We hear about his involvement in IS governance, how he is dealing with SOX compliance, we follow him as he implements a 1 million dollar computer just for testing and he will also tell you how to define the value of Project Management. As always, we also give you several helpful resources that complement our interview.
