Growing a Strong Project Management Office
Description: Most organizations have at least entertained the idea of creating a Project Management Office (PMO), if not created and subsequently dismantled one. In this one-hour webinar, we will explore the value of a PMO, options for organizing and staffing one, as well as how to sell the idea to management. For those already living in a PMO, you'll get real-world advise about proving your value and getting the respect in the organization that you deserve. This session will offer executives considering a PMO, as well as PMO managers and staff tactical approaches to create a PMO that will improve project results and pay for itself in project efficiencies and successes.
Topics:
--Building a strong business case for a PMO
--The PMO lifecyle
--Re-chartering a weak or disrespected PMO
--Structures, forms and roles of successful PMOs
--The Organizational Project Management Maturity Model (OPM3)
--Setting development goals for processes and staff
--The Project Manager Competency Development Framework
--Creating an environment for institutionalizing project management
