Portfolio as a Value Enabler: How to Make It Real A portfolio as a value enabler is not easy to achieve. It requires not only good process, practices and the right competencies in place but it also needs a change in the mindset of those involved in managing the portfolio. Quite often, a portfolio is not perceived as a value enabler but a necessary administrative burden. But how it can be perceived differently if it is presented as a collection of projects and programs or a massive Gantt chart?
