Description

Project Management is a roadblock to rapid execution and transformation. It is outdated and serves only to tie up the agile enterprise in red tape.

Or so many folks believe.

I've had many experiences with Project Management, Project Managers, and Project Management Offices and I was curious what actual PMO practitioners thought about the PMO in the modern digital enterprise. So I asked my friend Hussain Bandukwala to join myself and my smart friends to discuss whether the PMO is a net hindrance or enabler of business and technology initiatives.

In this episode:

• What is project management (and/or Project Management Office) in today's parlance? What does it mean to organizations?
• Why is it needed? Or perhaps, IS it needed?
• Everything today is agile, isn't PMO overkill?
• How can it be an enabler instead of an anchor?
• What does it look like when it is working well? What are some key success factors to doing project management right? How do you know when it isn’t being practiced well?

Hussain is the Founder & CEO of Parwaaz Consulting and he helps high-growth companies with their Project Management efforts by coaching, mentoring and advising. His approach helps his clients bring order to chaos in 90 days.
