Tripwires, Murder Boards, and Premortems: The Xtremely Decisive PMO Recent decision-theory research has led to important discoveries and new best practices, with significant implications for project management and PMOs. This video explores practical techniques that can be used to improve project-related decisions and provide better recommendations to stakeholders and leadership. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs. Some titles, such as Agile-related topics may qualify for other continuing education credits such as SEUs, or CEUs. Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.

The Project Management Odyssey Project Management is composed of many elements. So many, in fact, that it is hard at times to get the big picture. There are more than 100,000 books on Amazon under Project Management. There are three main certification bodies and the latest version of the US standard, PMI's PMBOK® Guide is composed of 5 process groups, 10 knowledge areas and 47 steps. The complexity needs to be simplified. For this presentation, we have gone back to one of the original stories by Homer - the Odyssey. Odysseus and his men were tired after 10 years of fighting and looking forward the journey home. This idea of a journey is at the heart of each and every project. A journey to somewhere else, another place. A beginning, a middle, and an end. We will use this journey to illustrate the correct way to approach any project. In doing so we hope to assist you in retaining the key ingredients for doing projects better in your equally challenging environment.

The PMO: Business Enabler and Change Agent Corporate entities and government agencies are in the midst of transformational change as a result of business imperatives, regulatory requirements, competitive necessity, mergers & acquisitions, and a plethora of modernizations. PMOs can no longer contribute or even survive under the mantra of Score Keeper and Methodology Advocate. Evolving, successful PMOs are Business Enablers and Change Agents. To remain relevant and continue to add value across the enterprise, PMOs must become part of the fabric of the overall organization. This presentation bridges the gap between the Administrative PMO and the Sustainable and Valued Business Integration PMO. This and other IIL Learning in Minutes presentations qualify for PDUs.
