The future is bright for PMOs, focusing on #innovation and #strategic_impact. The PMO has evolved from ensuring project consistency to driving strategic impact. 🚀 🔍 Key Changes: 1. Strategic Alignment: Projects supporting organizational goals. 2. Value Focus: Tracking benefits, not just timelines. 3. Agility: Adopting flexible, iterative approaches. 4. Tech Integration: Using advanced tools for efficiency. 5. Talent Development: Investing in continuous learning. 6. Governance: Strengthening compliance and quality. #ProjectManagement #PMO #Agile #Innovation #Leadership #Elhagsuliman

I see a lot of posts about how to improve PMOs here on LI. But they all seem to miss one key factor. None of them consider the performance of the PMO. "Get stakeholder support, get a seat at the table, find out what your stakeholders want, change the name, develop KPIs, be agile, deliver value, align with strategy, and on and on.... But none of them start with 'how mature is your team and your practices?'. Do they know how to 'deliver value', do you have knowledge and skillset to deliver what the stakeholders want, do you understand how to 'be agile', etc.? All of the routine advice (except changing the name 😉) may help improve (not 'fix') things, but, ONLY IF your team is already firing on all cylinders. If you or team are still at the lower end of the maturity scale, (and sadly few will ever admit this) then even if you got these things from leadership, your PMO would still struggle.

OKR -Objectives and Key Resuts. This is a very instrumental framework business analyst use in setting and tracking goals in a measurable way. Here are my few takeaways from the session on how OKR supports business strategy: 1) Alignment: ensures the project team is aligned with both internal and external stakeholders. 2) Agility: OKR promotes agility by allowing regular revue and adjustment of the business goals. 3) Accountability: It creates a clearly defined definition of what to do and who to be help accountable. (A sub-framework here is to adopt the RACI matrix) 4) Measurabiluty: OKRs are designed to be measurable and quantifiable, which allows businesses to track progress objectively. 5) Transparency: It promotes broader visibility into the status of the business goals to the entire project team, project manager, risk and compliance. governance team and C-Level executives.
