Gaining Executive Support for Project Portfolio Management Description: The difference from one organization to another, in terms of strategic execution, is the discipline of engaging the strategy with the tailored portfolio of projects and programs that will bring it to life. In a saving bank organization, with limited resources and not very mature in project management, it is as much about choosing what not to do as about deciding which strategic projects and programs to invest in. The organizational success or failure rests on how an organization governs its project portfolio. This presentation is about a real case of a Spanish savings bank who decided to implement a project portfolio process in their IT organization. The PMO manager from the Savings bank led the project, with the help of a PM consulting company. They worked on team with the saving bank professionals to sell the Executives the need of a project portfolio process, and the added value of this process implementation for their organization and for their customers. This presentation deals with the problems and difficulties found and also with the lessons learned from this challenging project. Speaker: Alfonso Bucero, MSc, PMP, PMI Fellow Track: General |
