03/24/08 Tip of the Week: Project Portfolio Management: Tip 10 - Remember who the boss is.
March 24, 2008 @ Project Management Tips of the Week from Mark Perry
Project portfolio management can be a tremendous discipline for management and the leadership team. It will facilitate the strategic alignment of projects and programs to the priorities of the business. However, there will come times when the business intuition and market instinct of the CEO and the top tier executives will seemingly compromise the portfolio management process and available metrics. Hence, there always needs to be a certain degree of flexibility and understanding that no matter how regimented the process is made to be, certain data points and judgments might very well fall outside of the process to no discredit of all those involved.
