The subject of Business Acumen has come into the
PMP® Certification Exam because the Project Management Institute found that PMs need more of it! Therefore Business Acumen awareness and must-know business information is now emphasized and you will be tested on its meaning. Gaining more business acumen helps the PM gain a level of respect from the organization's stakeholders and increases trust within the project. PMs need to understand how business operates to some extent, be aware of important business issues, corporate strategies, goals and objectives, as doing this helps them relate positively with both relevant and key stakeholders to fully understand their concerns, their experience and the way they do business. The PM can use this information to maximize the delivery of business value by gaining the support of the relevant stakeholders and the respect of other key players within the organization and project.
All PMP Certification Training with Exam Prep classes - the 35 hours for exam approval are also the exam-focused information you need to know in order to pass the PMP exam. Join us onsite in Washington DC or Bellevue WA, near Seattle or vua100% Live Video Conference. All PMP classes are personally delivered 100% of the time.
