Navigating the PPM Maturity curve in rapid growth environments

Should my PMO manage innovation as well as delivery?

Duncan Griffin, PPM Consultant, CPS

More and more organisations are looking to embrace innovation but lack the structure and tools to support it. Many organisations already have a function in place for delivery but to effectively manage change and drive innovation it should surely be managed end to end.

Starting with strategy and ideation through to implementation and ending with benefits. What part does the PMO play in creating the environment for and managing that process? Built on Office 365, edison365 combines an intuitive ideation platform and a leading Project Portfolio Management tool, to deliver end to end innovation.

Can banks de-risk programmes?

Pindy Bhullar, Director, UBS

Banks spend billions on programmes each year. The volume of change, regulatory impact and limited economic growth has resulted in complex and riskier programmes.

How can we improve the planning phases of programmes in banks to reduce risks and ensure we continuously minimise risks throughout the lifecycle?

This presentation will describe a methodology to de-risk programmes and also explore a theoretical case study exploring the mechanisms to de-risk programmes in banks.
