Join us for the highlights webinar where we take a look back to the previous week of the PMO Conference.
In this one hour session we'll share the insights from the different sessions - our key takeaways.
Join us as we hear from other conference attendees and what they took away - plus the practical elements they'll be using in their own PMOs.
In this session, Gary shares his experiences and insights from his career – attendees should look at a recent article from Gary - 5 Key Items to being a Successful PMO Lead. Gary talks about performing an initial assessment when commencing work on a new opportunity within an existing and underperforming PMO.
The article forms the foundation for this session today on PMO models and resourcing, the options available in PMO structure and how these can be resourced. Gary draws on his personal experiences of working in a number of different models and ways of resourcing and shares his practical insights.
Gary also looks at the Agile scaled delivery models and the continued movement towards a strategic PMO. With different options available to meet business demands and differing business cultures, attendees will leave the session with a broader understanding of why specific models are chosen and what the PMO can be doing to ensure it is flexible and adaptable in its capability to provide the services required.

We missed out last year, now we're back for 2021, the PMO Flashmob Christmas Social!
It's the time of year when we take some time to reflect before heading into the New Year.
With all the PMO Flashmob events, we help you connect with others without the embarrassment and awkwardness of networking events. This will be a facilitated conversation night, designed to get you chatting.
All we ask is think about coming along in your Christmas jumper!
We can't wait for things to start getting back to normal, see you there.
This event is free for full members, and carries a charge for free and online members.

The PMO Manager’s Lunch takes place annually – and brings together 10 PMO Managers, talking over lunch about a particular PMO topic.
This event leads to the production of an Inside PMO report, which brings the insights from the lunch to a wider audience.
This event is free to attend, some PMO Managers are invited to attend, others are allocated based on their experiences to date in the subject matter for the lunch.
This year's focus is PMO Leadership.
The PMO Book Club is an exclusive member event held on a quarterly basis.
If you enjoy reading this is the PMO club for you. Each quarter we select a book that we think PMO professionals will enjoy.
Our PMO Book Club this quarter will be released in September 2021.
How the book club works
You purchase the book and read it. Sign up for this event and join in the session.
Book clubs are all about posing questions about the text to stimulate discussion and debate.
This event is a facilitated session and is open to all members. You don't need to have read the book to join the session, you can still join and listen to the conversation.
RSVP or register to attend the session based on your membership level.
Each year the House of PMO takes time to reflect on the year and you're invited to join the retrospective.
Expect retrospective exercises that give us the chance to see how 2021 ended up for us all and how we're feeling about 2022.
More details to be confirmed nearer the date.
Join us for the latest PMO panel session where we bring together a panel of people passionate about a particular PMO topic - on the panel this time are the Lodgers at the House of PMO.
Each lodger has a different specialism and focus on PMO so we thought, why not have them look at the trends for 2022 and give us their take.
With each panel, you can also get involved and put questions to the panel.

The PMO Director role is often misunderstood – or not even present in many organisations committed to delivering change through portfolios, programmes, and projects.
We’re delighted to have Mitch Rollings join us for this session. Mitch is an experienced PMO Director with over 20 years in the role of PMO Director and Head of PPM. He currently works for Westpac, the leading Australian bank and has previously worked for Vodafone, AWE, Atkins and British Gas, to name a few.
We will find out more about the PMO Director role – its purpose and the key accountabilities. Mitch will share insights from his own experiences, getting into the structure of the role; the context he’s working in; the relationships with executives; some of the challenges he has faced in the position and his thoughts on the real difference a PMO can make to an organisation.
Mitch has some great stories to share and he’ll be giving us his insights from the first 100 days in the role.
This session will certainly give you much food for thought plus you’ll be guaranteed to take away lots of gold nuggets of actionable insights.
You might have seen these events springing up over the last couple of years, the next event in February 2022 will be a face to face event in London and we'd like to get a cohort of PMO practitioners to come along and work together under the banner of House of PMO.
