PMI Carolina Virtual Meeting - A PMO for Agile Projects: Not an Oxymoron!

Business Acumen

Topic: A PMO for Agile Projects: Not an Oxymoron!

“Agile projects need to report to the PMO” – how does this statement make you feel? Anxious? Frustrated? Anticipating a fight? There’s likely to be resistance. The reality is, all projects, even Agile ones, should have support to be successful. But at the same time, PMOs can’t remain the same and expect Agilists to just comply; PMOs also need to change and adapt.

In this webinar: We’ll review the types of PMOs and what benefit they bring to an organization, but then also their place in an Agile environment. We’ll investigate the value they need to have for Agile projects. And finally, we’ll provide a few examples of value-added services that can assist.

Learning Objectives:

  • Describe the different Types of PMOs and their fit in the Agile world
  • Identify the value that PMOs must bring to be relevant
  • Consider PMO services that support Agile Project success
