Published: Dec. 9, 2006, 11 p.m.

This week The PMO Podcast™ Featured Story presents, "Recommendations for Informal Projects Part IV - Simple Risk Management", presented by Mark Perry (about Mark), host of The PMO Podcast™. Today’s episode is the fourth in a five part series aimed at recommendations for informal projects. For many of these kinds of informal projects, project management concepts like risk management are not well known or used. Rather than not performing any kind of risk management, a key recommendation for these informal projects is the use of simple risk management and risk management techniques.

The PMO Podcast™ Points Memo suggests, “If You Are Proposing a PMO for Your Company - Avoid The Hype." More and more organizations are looking at implementing project management offices for a number of reasons, to improve project performance, to ensure project delivery, to increase project management skills, etc. Seek to overcome the challenges that need to be addressed in order for your company to be more successful. And, stay on point. The decision to set up a PMO should not be a leap of faith, rather a business decision.
