Strategy Roadmap & Implementation Planning
The key to successfully execute against your goals and vision, is to build a strategy roadmap to visualize your desired outcomes over the required time horizon. I can help you sort through the chaos to find the most efficient path to get you from strategy to execution.
I am experienced in working with clients to understand their priorities, existing capabilities, desired capabilities, and identify the gap. The Strategy Roadmap describes what needs to be done, and why. The Implementation Plan describes how your organization will deliver to achieve the desired outcomes.
I act as the bridge between business and technology, develop value streams and capability maps, and help you to operationalize your strategy and vision.
Ready to begin execution? I can help with PMO, Program Management, and Portfolio Management services to facilitate the execution against your Implementation Plan.
Program Management Office (PMO) Services
You have worked hard to get your initiatives and programs approved and funded, ready to jump into execution. Adherence to project and program management disciplines during execution can make or break the success of your implementation plan. I can help you set up governance without impeding execution. I am experienced in establishing PMO processes and standards, fit for purpose to meet your goals and targeted for your audience and stakeholders.
Do you have multiple initiatives that require initiative specific, but standardized governance? Let me enable repeatable PMO guidelines that your team can quickly implement at the start of their next initiative and hit the ground running.
I evaluate the tools you already use in your organization and will recommend additional or different tools to ensure you are aligned with best practices for an efficient and effective PMO.
You choose the degree of engagement you need to establish, roll-out or improve your PMO:
PMO Assessment
Short engagement to assess your current situation and goals to provide an achievable roadmap that blends with available skills, adoption comfort level, technology, and processes.
PMO Leadership Coaching
Best suited when you have candidates in place and need coaching to enable your team to establish and implement a PMO or improve your current PMO operations.
PMO Set-Up
Establish the PMO Structure and create the PMO Handbook with supporting processes and standards.
PMO Roll-Out
Implement PMO guidelines to provide you with an effective and efficient PMO.
