The PMO Podcast™ Points Memo suggests, “Business Driven PMOs Make the Grade." Is your PMO business driven? Does it have goals and objectives and a relentless focus on achieving those goals and objectives? Or is your PMO a support organization with no real mission or goals other than to manage the projects that come its way? There is no one correct approach for a PMO. And, despite all of the various PMO models that people in the project management community talk about, there are only two kinds of PMO models – the PMO model that is driven by the needs of the business and the PMO model that is not.
The PMO Podcast™ Mailbag answers a listener question about how often project managers should update their project management data in the project management system and how often should they update their project management status reports?
