A new type of event from House of PMO - the 'super series'. The super series takes place over 6 months with one event a month - all focused on a specific PMO topic. We launch the series with an Agile PMO Super Series. The session is hosted by our agility lodger Matthew Milsom and you're invited to take part in any of the sessions - if you're really keen to learn about anything and everything agile/Agile in your role, consider attending all six of the sessions. How it Works Register and add your response to the first question - 'what would you like to see covered in this first session?' Your responses help to create the super series backlog and at the end of each session, a new crowdsourced area of interest for the next session is chosen. In other words, it's you, the attendee that chooses what the sessions are focused on. You can attend all the sessions or just dip into the ones that interest you the most. The sessions are free to online and full members - a small fee for those that are currently free members.

In this session, we listen to a PMO story from Latin America. Manuel Lopez talks about his experiences working in an IT environment for a Global Insurance company based in Mexico. We're looking forward to hearing a different perspective as Manuel talks about what the main challenges are for the PMO when working in Global environments, from cultural to language barriers and how we can be successful. Manuel also talks about the differences between the global and local levels - how good practices implemented at a global level don't always make it to the local level, who remain stubbornly independent and resistant to change, "we have being doing it like this for several years". Sound familar? With this session we'll hear from Manuel's experiences about how he implemented the PMO to achieve results; getting people to take action and utilise the PMO's best practices and how the value of the PMO needs to be promoted to all company levels all the time even with your own team.
