Establishing a PMO (Project/Program/Portfolio Management Office) is considered to be a best practice approach to improving the value an organization can receive from its project investments.

Why is it then, that a study, conducted in 2005, of 750 organizations worldwide indicated that over 75% of organizations that set up a PMO shut it down within three years because it did not demonstrate any added value?

Solution Q invites you to attend a webinar where you will learn key reasons why so many PMOs fail, and gain some valuable knowledge of the critical success factors required to ensure the survival of your PMO.

Who should attend this webinar?
Managers/Directors of PMOs, Project Managers

While webinars have become commonplace in both learning and marketing, the parade-of-slides-with-disembodied-voice format is getting old. Isn’t it time we reinvented the webinar? What can we learn from the success of the “flipped classroom” model that’s sweeping the world of education?

In this webinar, Michael will explore how the webinar itself can be reinvented around the flipped classroom model: that is, delivering the presentation material as a rich interactive video presentation in advance and using the “live” webinar as Q&A and discussion time.

And yes, this will be delivered as a “flipped webinar” — so you can not only hear about it but also experience it and discuss it with your peers.

Join Michael for this most unusual and innovative online event!
