Episode 016: Starting a PMO
This week The PMO Podcast™ Featured Story discusses Starting a PMO with Richard Eichen, CEO of ROE LLC, presented by Mark Perry (about Mark), host of The PMO Podcast™. Rich talks about the growth of PMOs and provides four ideas that can be used to start a new PMO or to spruce up an existing PMO that may be experiencing difficulties.
The PMO Podcast™ Points Memo asks, "Is the PMO Manager a Driver in the Organization?" Some say no, and that a PMO Manager merely monitors and controls. Others, say yes. A PMO Manager of course monitors and controls the project portfolio, but that is just one side of the coin. On the other side, PMO Managers are key leaders, drivers, and contributors to organizational excellence. When a good idea comes along, make sure that it gets knocked out of the park.
The PMO Podcast™ Mailbag answers a listener question about small projects and if some projects are too small to call projects.
The PMO Podcast™ is sponsored by BOT International, the provider of Processes On Demand, a PMO Setup solution used by more than 1,000 companies.
