This week The PMO Podcast™ Featured Story presents "Business Driven PMO Success Stories, Chapter 5 - Techniques for Establishing a PMO Mandate," presented by Mark Perry (about Mark), host of The PMO Podcast™. I am very happy to announce the recent release and availability of my new book, Business Driven PMO Success Stories - Across Industries and Around the World. This book is my third in the business driven PMO book series, published by J. Ross Publishing. And in today's podcast, I would like to share with you Chapter 5 - Techniques for Establishing a PMO Mandate. The PMO Podcast™ Points Memo presents, "What was your worst PMO steering committee experience? I'll go first." Naturally, there are many kinds of bad experiences that can be had with PMO steering committees. My worst experience was in a PMO in which one of the PMO steering committee members simply refused to show up and participate in the PMO meetings. As you can imagine, it is very hard to conduct portfolio management discussions, prioritizations, and selections for new project opportunities not to mention make decisions about rescuing or terminating existing projects without the full participation of all those that needed to be present. The PMO Podcast™ Mailbag answers a listener question about whether or not a PMO be viewed as a permanent organization or an organization that at some point in time works itself out of a job. The PMO Podcast™ is sponsored by BOT International, the provider of Processes On Demand, a PMO Setup solution used by more than 1,000 companies.Request a Demo LoginThe PMO Podcast™ is a trademark of BOT International.
