Workshop Description

There is tremendous benefit in establishing a PMO and advancing systemic, organizational capabilities in project management, but it is not a one-shoe-fits-all-sizes proposition nor is it a proposition that can be singularly championed and rushed through an organization. This workshop will engage participants in a lively and interactive session that offers practical insights, techniques, and case examples for how to set up and manage a successful, business driven, PMO. The workshop is organized into four modules:

PMO Organization: Constituent Oriented vs. Inwardly Focused
PMO Management: Embracing Flexibility vs. Mandating Conformance
PMO Tools: Establishing a PMO Architecture vs. Implementing a Tool
PMO Maturity: Practical Adoption vs. Theoretical Exercises

Participants will receive a copy of the book, Business Driven PMO Setup: Practical Insights, Techniques, and Case Examples for Ensuring Success, published by J. Ross Publishing as part of attending this workshop which is led by the author.

At the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:

Establish a business driven PMO
Ensure leadership team ownership of their PMO through Nemawashi techniques
Explain the quantified benefits to the organization of their PMO
Design a PMO architecture
Develop a roadmap for business driven PMO and organizational maturity
