PMOs and the Making of Effective Sponsors

Effective sponsorship is essential for project and programme delivery – from initial scoping to benefits realisation.

In this session we’ll look at what the PMO can do to actively engage with sponsors, support their development and embed their role in the organisation, ensuring they have all they need to be effective, but also to ensure they are held accountable for their contribution to project and programme success.

We’ll also dip into the PMO Competency Framework to look at the skills and behaviours required by those in the PMO to undertake these activities.

XLAs for PMOs.

How to measure the success of a PMO and its services using Experience Level Agreements.

This presentation will provide the attendees with real life insights into how to measure the success of the PMO. Attendees will learn how to base PMO success upon the experience of its customers and stakeholders. The session will cover:

  • What is Experience and the Experience Economy?
  • Why does Experience matter?
  • What is wrong with traditional PMO metrics?
  • What is an XLA?
  • The Experience Management Framework™ and XLA Stack™
  • Example PMO XLA Stack™

How to Double the ROI from your Portfolio while Winning over the C-Suite

It’s simple. Your executives want a return on their investment, but most are frustrated at the low level of returns from their project portfolio.

Too many projects are late, over-budget or fail to deliver the intended benefits and things aren’t really improving.

In this workshop, we’ll look at four portfolio management techniques that PMO leaders can use to massively increase the return on investment from the portfolio, with a doubling of ROI a realistic target for many.

On the way, we’ll explore what ducks can teach us about executives and their relationship with projects. We’ll also bring it to life with some fun, hands-on activities!

Public Speaking for Impact at Work

Discover public speaking skills with a TEDx speaker and explore how to share your ideas at work with confidence.

I’m sure you’ll agree that public speaking skills will:

  • Increase your visibility in your organisation
  • Support you in delivering messages with greater clarity, confidence and impact
  • Help you connect with people through what you say and how you say it
  • Grow your self confidence

During this supportive session you will find the confidence to speak up in meetings, learn how to structure and deliver your ideas with impact, and explore the tools and techniques to communicate with confidence.
