Companion to C-Level Change Workshop (2 to 3 hour Workshop) If you are concerned about Strategic Change Failure, and that means your portfolio of Projects, then there are two key actions that can dramatically de-risk this potential situation. Step 1: Strategies for Project Sponsorship 1 Marketing decision It is stated the Standish Chaos Report, amongst many others including PMI’s Pulse of the Profession, that the sponsor is the person who is ultimately responsible for the success (or failure) of the project, who represent the business and the business change. And yet, there is a chasm in many organisations between this statement and the reality of the professionalism and associated investment in development of those active sponsors. We will explore the current challenges of project sponsorship maturity and offer some techniques for creating an effective sponsorship community as one of the two foundations of project success. Step 2: Building the best PMO Here will explore the true value of a ‘good’ PMO in guiding project success and supporting the sponsor community in the management of the portfolio of project change. Exploring what is meant by a ‘Balanced PMO’, a design developed by Peter, as well as presenting a new working model for project management excellence with the ‘Project Academy’ concept. All offering that critical second foundation for project success.
