Is Your PMO Cursed to Fail?
Have you ever stopped and considered how deep the PMO graveyard in your organisation is?
3 deep?
...5?
More?
The multi-million dollar question is: Are you doing anything different?
Or is your PMO cursed to fail too?
Almost every organisation has tried at least once to build a functioning and sustainable Project, Program or Portfolio Management Office...And almost every organisation has failed.
Well, I have dug up the skeletons, avoided the zombies, aired out the tombs, outrun the boulders and uncovered the common cause of PMO death. Want to know what I found?
The PMOs Were Worthless!
But all isn't lost. What if I said that you could reverse the trend?
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 ).
So, You Want to Create a High Value PMO?
What landed you here?
- Perhaps you are frustrated with the lack of logic in allocating change investment?
- Or maybe you are staring at an overwhelming number of reports, systems, frameworks and methodologies?
- Do your project managers need a capability boost?
- Or is it that the information you need just isn't there?
- Maybe you are about to commence a large program of work?
- Or is it just chaos - and your projects are running amok.
No matter the reason you are here, I've got some great news. This guide will help.
This guide is for you if you have just been tasked with setting up a new PMO, and you want to do it right.
Equally, this guide is for you if your office is well established but you just aren't getting the results you expected.
In short - this guide is for you if you need to create entirely new levels of value through your PMO.
