The PMO (Project Management Office) is the organization responsible for the development of the project culture and the project and portfolio management processes. The head of the PMO and his/her team can influence the entire organization through this, so their every step and communication is crucial. The PMO leader is often “alone” in the given organization. In many cases, there is not even a PMO, just an idea that there should be a simple project competence centre – even with a specialist, which can be the first step.
Professionals working in project management, including the head of the PMO, act as a bridge between execution and strategy, and no matter how experienced they may be, in order to properly manage this dual influence, they may need to receive feedback on their ideas and receive consulting (coach) support from experts who they have up-to-date market benchmarks and best practices and can also help with the support of an external eye. At the same time, the PMO manager also needs his colleagues to have the appropriate knowledge and experience, so that the PMO can perform better.
We provide practical, professional support for this with our coaching service.
For new or practicing PMO managers, project directors, portfolio managers, project managers, professionals working in PMOs, professionals involved in project management, experts where the project culture is still at low level and they want to develop it, whether they operate in a large company or SME environment
The topic is chosen by the applicant, which is the most important for him, which he or she wants to develop in, or what “needs to be delivered” at the given moment. It is typical that we work on several local topics by understanding of the approaches suggested by the methodologies, the professional experience of the coach in the given topic, and then we develop the concept for the given company or organizational unit.
The end result of coaching is sometimes a professional confirmation that the directions are right, but most of the time it is a presentation about development concepts, organizational strategy, and new processes. We prepare the presentation according to the pre-arranged work split. If needed, the coach, as a consultant, can also provide support in internal organizational acceptance.
The following topics typically appear with our customers:
