Episode 074: PMO Studies Part VIII - Portfolio Management Best Practices

This week The PMO Podcast™ Featured Story presents, "PMO Studies Part VIII - Portfolio Management Best Practices", presented by Mark Perry (about Mark), host of The PMO Podcast™. Recently, The PMO Podcast engaged in a study of twenty-five PMOs to observe, listen, and learn from a wide variety of PMO Managers with the objective in mind to share these findings in a series of short, podcast episodes, each focused on a particular tip, technique, or finding in general. And this episode is the eighth in the series, which is focused on portfolio management best practices. The PMO Podcast™ Points Memo presents, “Leadership Without Authority!" What makes PMO Managers effective leaders? More times than not, PMO Managers must work with and through others in the organization in order to ensure success of the projects underway and of the project managers that manage them. Exhibiting leadership when you are not in a boss to subordinate relationship is "leadership without authority" and it requires one to exhibit a number of leadership behaviors. Presented are six "leadership without authority" traits that can help PMO Managers and Project Managers work with and through others. The PMO Podcast™ Mailbag answers a listener question about managing project teams that are working overtime and over the weekends.
