AtTask Featured in CEO Today Magazine April Edition

Scott Johnson, AtTask CEO, Discusses Bridging Corporate Strategy and Execution, Enabling Organizations to Increase Productivity and Reduce Costs on Critical Business Projects across the Enterprise

In the current issue of CEO Today, Scott Johnson, CEO and founder of AtTask (http://attask.co.uk), the world’s most popular project and portfolio management (PPM) solution, discusses bridging corporate strategy and project execution–allowing business leaders to validate initiatives undertaken at the project level.

CEO Today is distributed to CEOs and senior-level executives in leading public and privately held organizations throughout the U.K. Johnson, an acknowledged expert in project management, is an engaging speaker and consultant to businesses and organizations that want to maximize their resources and focus efforts on initiatives that best accomplish organizational and financial goals. Johnson has previously been featured in such publications as CIO Magazine, Business Management Magazine, PM Network, and Business Week.

“The biggest challenge for business leaders in the world today is making certain that initiatives undertaken at the project level are aligned with the strategic and financial goals of their organizations,” says Johnson. “For a project and portfolio management solution to provide real value, it should include a formalized request process, demand management, and project prioritization and selection that effectively bridges the strategic goals of executives and the implementation and execution deliverables of project teams.”

As the current economic climate forces organizations to accomplish more with fewer resources, AtTask offers the right solution for today’s economy. Organizations around the world including BASF, China Founder Pharmaceutical, CINECA, Espresso Education, Formula 1, the Federal Trade Commission, Geo Post, Interpol, Irish Times, Reblewski, Shanghai Goodview-Digital, Shenzhen Guoxing Technology, and Uniblue Systems represent the diversity of worldwide customers attracted to AtTask’s ability to deliver visibility, cost effectiveness, and accountability throughout the enterprise–and across the globe.

“AtTask is helping organizations streamline project selection, prioritization, and execution on both structured and ad-hoc initiatives across the enterprise,” says Mark Dallimore, Director of Sales, AtTask Ltd. “We’re delighted with the traction we’re seeing in the U.K. and Europe.”
