SUMMARY:PMO at Sea: Staying Relevant in a World That Won’t Sit Still
DESCRIPTION:Step onboard for a PMO event like no other – our first ever session hosted at sea.\nJoin us in person on a Red Funnel ferry as we sail from Southampton to the Isle of Wight (and back again!)\, for an interactive masterclass session led by the Roke PMO team. \nIt’s a chance to step out of the usual setting and explore how PMOs operate when everything around them is moving (literally and organisationally). \nA structured\, interactive session led by the Roke PMO team\, exploring how the PMO role can evolve to continually add value in complex and fast-changing environments.  \nAt Roke\, their mission is to shape the future of digital defence and security by solving complex\, high-stakes challenges with purpose and lasting impact. The domains in which they operate are strongly influenced by global political and technological change\, creating dynamic and evolving customer needs across the world. \nTo support this\, Roke’s PMO function is designed to be highly adaptable\, enabling informed decision-making and efficient delivery at pace.  \nIn this session\, they will discuss practical approaches and lessons learned on how a modern PMO can continuously adjust its services to meet business needs\, maximise value\, and support delivery in uncertain environments. Expect lots of interactivity and sharing as we make our way out to sea. \nAs we sail across the Solent\, this is your chance to step away from the day-to-day\, connect with others\, and reflect on how your PMO can stay on course in changing conditions. Whether you’re navigating calm waters or choppier seas\, you’ll leave with fresh ideas\, practical takeaways\, and a clearer sense of direction for the journey ahead. \nWhat You Need to Know\nThis is an in-person event taking place onboard a Red Funnel ferry\, departing from Southampton. Please read the following before registering to attend: \n\nYou must arrive on time and be ready to board between 16:30 and 16:40 – the ferry will depart promptly and late arrivals may not be able to join\nBy registering\, you are committing to attend; if your plans change\, please let us know as early as possible so your place can be offered to someone else\nAttendees are responsible for their own travel to and from the ferry terminal\nParking is available nearby\, with both paid and limited free options (full details will be shared in the joining instructions)\nThe event takes place onboard a scheduled ferry service\, so timings and arrangements are subject to operational conditions\nAll attendees are expected to follow instructions from the event hosts and ferry operator to ensure a safe and smooth experience\n\nMany thanks to the PMO team at Red Funnel for the opportunity to take the PMO on the high seas! \n  \nRegistration has closed – want to be notified of spaces?

SUMMARY:Beyond the Single Source of the Truth: How PMOs Validate\, Challenge and Make Data Useful
DESCRIPTION:For years\, PMOs have chased “The Single Source of the Truth” – a mythical state where every report aligns\, every dashboard reconciles\, and every stakeholder agrees. But what if this pursuit of certainty is actually holding us back? \nIn this thought-provoking session\, Michael Campbell explores what “truth” really means in a modern PMO. He challenges the idea that the goal is perfect data hygiene or one definitive version of the facts. Instead\, he argues that the PMO’s real value lies in sense-making – validating\, triangulating and continuously interpreting data to enable better business decisions. \nDrawing on lessons from PMO Flashmob’s Inside PMO report\, Michael will show how the future-ready PMO isn’t just data-literate – it’s curious. It constantly tests assumptions\, questions patterns\, and balances evidence with experience. The session will unpack how to build a PMO culture that goes beyond reporting to create genuine insight – helping organisations move from chasing truth to creating clarity and confidence. \nExpect lively discussion\, practical techniques\, and a few myths lovingly dismantled

SUMMARY:The Crown & Anchor Principle – PMO Flashmob / London
DESCRIPTION:This month\, PMO Flashmob heads to the iconic Crown and Anchor pub near Euston – and we’re taking inspiration from the name. \nOur theme\, “The Crown & Anchor Principle”\, explores the duality of PMOs in organisations: \n\nThe Crown represents the things PMOs are celebrated for – strategic alignment\, delivery assurance\, consistency\, clarity\, control. The big wins. The gold stars (or should that be jewels??)\nThe Anchor represents the elements that often weigh PMOs down – resistance to change\, bureaucracy perceptions\, “process for the sake of process\,” or simply being misunderstood.\n\nIn true PMO Flashmob fashion\, we’ll be unpacking both sides of the story: \n\nWhat earns PMOs their seat at the table?\nAnd what quietly undermines their influence?\n\n\nFeaturing: The Crown & Anchor (PMO) Dice Game\nTo keep things lively\, we’ll be playing a reimagined version of the classic Crown & Anchor dice game – with a PMO twist. \nDid you know that “Crown and Anchor” is a traditional British naval game dating back to the 18th century. It was wildly popular with sailors in the Royal Navy – particularly because it’s simple\, fast\, and gloriously unfair – in other words\, perfect for our social meetup! \n\nWhat to Expect:\n\nA relaxed\, social evening with fellow PMO and project professionals.\nA chance to explore the realities of PMO life through shared stories\, conversations and insights.\nA light-hearted dice activity – using a set of custom PMO-themed outcomes to spark conversation about the crown and anchors of PMO life.\n\n  \nCome Along:\nPMO Flashmobs are open to anyone who enjoys getting together with other PMO people – people from all types of industries and levels of experience attend and you will be made to feel welcomed! \nBook your place today!

SUMMARY:Manchester PMO Flashmob / Rethinking Resource Management: A PMO-Led Approach
DESCRIPTION:Making Resource Management Work – A PMO Perspective\nResource management continues to be one of the trickiest areas for PMOs to get right. Whether it’s capacity planning\, getting the right people onto the right work\, or having the data to back up tough conversations with stakeholders – it often feels like going round in circles. \nThis in-person session in Manchester brings PMO professionals together to explore the refreshed Circle of Resource Management model – updated in 2025 following new insights from across sectors – and get practical about how the PMO can help make real progress\, even in complex environments. \nWhat We’ll Cover\nWe’ll take a look at the latest thinking behind the Circle of Resource Management from House of PMO and discuss findings from a brand new report into how organisations are tackling resource management in the real world. Together\, we’ll explore: \n\nThe portfolio\, project\, and resource sides of the resource management puzzle\nHow to use the model in your own organisation to prompt the right conversations\nWhat context\, capability and culture mean for your ability to make things stick\nHow the PMO can move from firefighting to genuinely enabling performance\nStories\, tips and lessons from other PMO professionals who’ve been there\n\nWhether you’re dealing with prioritisation problems\, developing capability frameworks\, or stuck in a tools-vs-process standoff\, this is a great chance to connect with others who get it – and go away with ideas you can use. \n📝 All attendees will receive a copy of the latest Inside PMO Report to take away. \nBook Your Spot\nReserve your place today – space is limited! \nJoin fellow PMO professionals for this practical and energising session. It’s time to break the cycle and get resource management working for your organisation. \nThis session is free for House of PMO members / non-members £10
