THE PMO SQUAD’s Post

Project Management Conflicts: How Do You Navigate Them? Ever had a stakeholder with a shifting vision midway through a project? ♀️ Those mid-course corrections can be a real challenge! Project managers know conflicts are inevitable. Scope creep, resource constraints, unclear communication - they all come with the territory. But how do we navigate these roadblocks? I find transparent communication with all stakeholders is key. What are your go-to tactics for resolving project management conflicts? #projectmanagement #conflictresolution #leadership

Such a great discussion last week on Project Success and the role of PMO hosted by Engineers Australia. It was a pleasure to share the panel with my colleagues Keiron Burchell, Pavithra Parthasarathy and Kumar Srinivasan. With over 500 registrations for the webinar 🤯 here are 3 key takeaways from the session: 🔷 Implement a holistic project methodology: Encourage a team-based approach to planning and develop a single, integrated project plan that aligns efforts. 🔷 Ensure organisational strategy and challenges are considered within project risk outlook, accounting for changes in leadership, shifts in risk appetite, and evolving customer requirements - these are often overlooked or underestimated… 🔷 In distress, best practice is not the answer. Embed the basics to help get back on track as challenges are common in project delivery. If you tuned in last week, share your thoughts below 👇🏻 And if you missed it, I'd love to hear your take on the role of PMO in project success. #projects #leadership #strategy #risk Louise Howard Advisory

Any other myths or misconceptions #pmo #transformation #governance #intlpmoday
