Now that we are more than halfway through the course, it has been time to work on some assignments. Despite having read the recommended literature, sometimes it is difficult to fully gasp all concepts. Specially because in the PMI books there are no examples. Of course, that makes complete sense since it is a guide and not an academic book, yet it can be obscure for people not used to the field.
One of the first issues I encountered in the assignment was to distinguish between the programs and portfolios in a real company. I have read the differences many times, even watched and posted some videos about it, but I still needed to find some examples to relate (shame on me!).
This is one good example that I found, applied to the aeronautic industry. This is another example with clothes and shoes. And finally this is yet another example with paint. Now it should be easier to apply concepts from PMI to real life... maybe not to those complex multinational companies, but surely at a medium level. Good luck!
