Our portfolios typically contain strategic and business delivery portfolio items, which are initiated through top down imperatives or BAU work.
However, how do we deal with ideas from the bottom up? How do we set idea challenges and nurture ideation? How do we capture and develop the good idea? Does that need to be part of the portfolio management and what part does the ‘PMO’ play in creating the environment for, and perhaps managing that process?
Takeaways:
Understanding what is involved to embrace innovation within your organisation
Awareness of what benefits bottom up innovation can deliver
An appreciation of the part technology can play and advice on getting an initiative off the ground

There was a time when Project Challenge was all about projects and project management. More recently we're seeing a lot more seminars and exhibitors that count PMO practitioners as their audience. The next Project Challenge takes place on the 6th and 7th October at London's Olympia in Kensington.
Why are we telling you this?
Well, PMO Flashmob have taken a stand there for the show and we'll also be presenting on the first day too.
We thought it would be a good idea to talk to more PMO practitioners about what we're doing with the PMO Flashmob, plus it'll be great to see people there who have already attended previous PMO Flashmobs.
We're planning a few little activities throughout the duration of the show so if you're in town, why not come along and say hello!
