Rupert's most recent BAR Chats have focused on advice for PMOs managing the portfolio through a crisis. So far, he has offered his top tips for preparing for tricky economic decisions ahead, as well how to create a fast, easy portfolio reporting blueprint to save your PMO valuable time whilst still serving up the good stuff for your sponsors. Now, he's taking a few minutes to give your PMO insight into SteerCo psychology when it comes to pre-reads - and how to align your approach.
In this 4 minute video, Rupert explains how your PMO can really shine with sponsors by giving them pre-reads that focus on the portfolio headlines, and that they can easily and quickly digest. They'll be equipped to come to your SteerCo meetings ready to engage in productive debate, and make the important PPM decisions.
The key lies in understanding and aligning to the C-Suite perspective, keeping things visually simple, and adopting the "one-five" principle. Not only will this delight your busy, busy sponsors - it will also underscore the value that you, as a PMO offer. Oh...and it will save you precious reporting time too!
So, grab a cuppa and take five to watch this short BAR Chat for inspiration. You may never need to spend hours on a complicated PowerPoint pack again...
