Building a Successful PMO for Healthcare Companies

Summary

This interactive 2-day training provides the knowledge and insights needed to understand the basics of a Project Management Office (PMO), its different formats, and the services it should provide in order to run a successful product development company. You will learn about the roles and facets of a PMO as well as its responsibilities within a cross-functional organization. Regardless of the size of your organization, the PMO guides project managers and members of project teams on organizing work, how to run projects, and how the individuals are engaged. We will discuss the six imperatives of a “good” PMO: Transparent information, connected business strategy, defined governance, predictable execution & delivery, explicit benefit realization, and a robust methodology & toolkit, and you will find practical advice on how to build those over time. Finally, we give you an in-depth understanding of the importance of building a strong culture that fosters accountability and promotes ownership, transparency, and clear roles and responsibilities.
