The story of Telstra’s PMO has everything – there’s the first Chief Project Officer role, then there’s the ePMO and portfolio approach (“to advance project management to improve business value”). There are key focus areas on capability, assurance, community, project sponsorship, business case, benefits, advice and intervention – all those areas PMOs should strive to deliver and support.
In this session we hear from Value Train Engineer Kevin Campbell on the realities of the work the Agile Programme Management Office (APMO) / Value Management Office (VMO) do when working within the SAFe® Framework
If you're struggling to understand what all these different Agile, agile, agility, iterative, adaptive, scaled, lean approaches are - this is a session that goes some way to helping you to make sense of it all!
During this session Henny Portman builds up his Bird's eye view on the agile forest. An overview in which he distinguishes between team, engineering, program, temporary, permanent, portfolio and culture frameworks.
In this panel session, we ask four members about their experiences and insights into hybrid reporting - one of the challenges that PMOs face is trying to get that one portfolio view when projects are being delivered by Agile-led (e.g., SCRUM), traditional-led (waterfall) and even continuous delivery such as product management.
The traditional PMO is often too passive, providing governance, reporting and process that can actually slow the organisation down, and then simply monitor the chaos, rather than enabling solutions.
Is it time for the PMO to be repurposed?

The session will include an introduction to Lean Portfolio Management theory illustrated with practical examples from implementing Lean Portfolio Management across a 6000 person technology team in a global financial institution with a budget in excess of £1 billion.
In this session we take a look at one of the main challenge areas for PMOs right now - how to support hybrid delivery.
It was an interactive session to help us really understand what the challenge is - and what the PMO can do to overcome the issues and really support their organisations going forward.

In this session, Matthew was joined by another lodger, Nicole Reilly. Together they talked about the different Agile related tools that are available and what the PMO needs to know.
There are literally hundreds of different tools out there that are used by Agile teams. There are also many different options to extract data which is then used by management teams to understand what progress is being made and what decisions and actions are needed to be taken.
