Speaker:

Eileen Roden, Consulting Director, PMO Learning

Details:

Accountability for successful project and programme delivery sits fairly and squarely on the shoulders of the Project or Programme Manager, but many other roles contribute to delivery success, including an effective PMO.

This evening’s session will consider the role an effective PMO can play in driving and supporting successful delivery, from setting up the organisation’s delivery infrastructure and ecosystem to pure administrative support (and everything in-between). Most importantly, we’ll consider how to engage with the PMO and identify how best they can help, within the context of their other roles across the organisation.

We’ll also consider some of the challenges when dealing with PMOs (particularly an ineffective PMO) and explore strategies and tactics to get the best from them.

Expect an interactive session and lively discussion!
