How deep is the PMO graveyard in your organisation? 3 deep? 5 deep? More? What are you doing different? …Or is your PMO cursed to fail too? Almost every organisation these days has tried to build a functioning Project, Program or Portfolio Management Office at least once …And almost every organisation has failed. The good news is that I have dug up the PMO skeletons, avoided the zombies, aired out the tombs, outrun the boulders and uncovered the common cause of death. The PMOs were worthless - they all failed to create any real value for their internal client base. But what if I said that you could reverse the trend and be the one who actually achieves it? Could you be the hero who pulls the sword from the stone and stops the curse? Let this guide be the Merlin to your King Arthur. It contains everything you will need to finally break the cycle (while showing everyone else, once again, that you can achieve the impossible). Whether: You have just been tasked with setting up a new PMO, or Your office is established and just isn’t getting the results you expected, This guide will help you through your next step. Inside you can expect: - How to Break Out of the Administrative Death Cycle - The Difference Between Valuable and Cursed PMOs - The 3 Simple Steps to Get Clear on your Value – and Communicate it! - How to Rally Your People – Building Momentum and Community - What it means to Normalise Experimentation and Learning - How to Overcome the Cultural Mishaps that Undermine PMOs And more… See you inside.
