It’s All Strategy… Always

It has been argued that project management is all about the execution of strategy.

It’s also been suggested that the only projects that should proceed forward are those that are strategically aligned.

At the same time, we tend to think of “strategy” and “project” as being separate and distinct concepts. The reality can actually be quite different.

There is a powerful school of thoughts that says that all execution is strategy, and all strategy is execution.

In this webinar Mark Mullaly (LinkedIn profile) author of Researching the Value of Project Management  explores where these lines blur, how to make sense of them, and how to think about our projects and they can—and should—relate to strategy.

Companies evaluating supply chain planning technology often make a leap of faith during the vendor selection process going from an RFP phase directly to selecting the vendor.

This is a mistake as these critical decisions are being made without a complete understanding of the path they need to travel and level of effort required to support implementation.

Companies seeking to evaluate and test vendor capabilities can use pilot programs to help mitigate risk and uncertainty during the evaluation process.

In this webinar, Alex Pradhan (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr. Principle Analyst  provides a pilot program overview, including which pilot to consider based on your business objectives and what you must consider when designing a pilot into your supply chain planning technology evaluation.

Discussion Topics:

  • How companies are incorporating pilots into their evaluation process and key learnings
  • Pilot models offered by supply chain planning technology vendors
  • Best practices to help supply chain planning leaders design their pilot

Establish Long-term PMO Success
By Aligning Your Purpose to Organizational Strategy

We’ve all seen the statistics that the average lifespan of a PMO is between 2-4 years.

Why are these PMOs failing?

  • Research points to several factors including:
    • Insufficient authority,
    • Unclear scope,
    • Self-serving rather than supporting, &
    • Overly bureaucratic processes and governance.

How do we overcome these challenges and build PMOs which provide value and stand the test of time?

The Purpose Driven PMO addresses factors which lead to failure in traditional PMO by starting with business needs rather than Project Management needs.

To implement the Purpose Driven PMO, we utilize the P-M-O Approach of Purpose, Measure and Optimize.

The Purpose Driven PMO aligns its Purpose with Executive Leadership, Measures performance to the agreed upon Purpose and establishing a culture of Optimization or Continuous Improvement.

In this presentation, Joseph Pusz (LinkedIn profile) will discuss the Power of Purpose, the P-M-O Approach, and steps organizations can take to immediately see benefits of building the Purpose Driven PMO.
