The next time a kick-off opens with “we just want out of the box, no customizations at all,” hear it for what it usually is: a sign that the conversation about how work actually gets done has not happened yet.

Organizations often try to automate processes that don’t really work. Simplify first, then automate, and you’ll get more value out of artificial intelligence. Here's how...
Accountability is something that project managers and PMO leaders are very familiar with. But that doesn’t mean they always embrace it.

The world of work isn't slowing down and neither is the project profession. The people who move when it matters are the ones who lead. At PMI® Global Summit 2026, you'll discover what it means to be Built to Move. Gain future-ready skills in AI, technology, and leadership. Hear from the voices shaping what's next. And walk away equipped for the realities of today, not the playbook of yesterday.
AI is quickly changing how project professionals draft reports, analyze risks, summarize meetings, and communicate with stakeholders. But the real leadership challenge is not simply learning a new tool. It is knowing which parts of the project work can be safely supported by AI, and which decisions must remain firmly in human hands.
***PMI and OKR Mentors Led Webinar*** Most organizations don't struggle to define OKRs, they struggle to execute them. PMI and OKRMentors explore how PMOs build the culture that turns strategy into outcomes.
While generative AI tools promise unprecedented developer velocity, enterprise delivery leaders face a growing paradox: localized coding speedups rarely translate into predictable product delivery or bottom-line business value. Without structural governance, unchecked code generation pushes bottlenecks downstream into integration testing, security compliance, and uncontrolled multi-cloud infrastructure costs.
Join us for an insightful presentation on "The Evolution of PMO: Rise of a Chief Project Officer," a groundbreaking book that has evolved into a global movement within the project management community.
Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how organizations deliver projects, make decisions, and manage risk. This webinar explores the emerging discipline of AI governance and its practical implications for project managers, PMOs, and business leaders.
This webinar explores how sustainability is transforming the role of the PMO from an operational control center into a driver of long-term business resilience and value creation. Attendees will learn how sustainable PMOs integrate ESG priorities, governance, risk management, and strategic decision-making into project delivery. Drawing on PMI and GPM frameworks, the session also examines global trends including climate risk, AI transformation, and evolving sustainability reporting requirements shaping modern organizations.
Project Management Offices play a critical role in today’s U.S. healthcare organizations—but what do effective PMO structures actually look like in practice?
UPDATED TEMPLATE! The communications plan provides a comprehensive view of how your project will communicate with the various audiences that it supports. Use this template and the sample matrix to schedule and assign communication responsibilities.
UPDATED TEMPLATE! The project management roles and responsibilities template is designed to consider the project management support that is required in managing and supporting a project. The template reflects the role and contributions of the project manager, as well as Project Management Office (PMO) and methodology support roles, where those exist.
This template has been developed for doing an assessment of your PMO function by measuring effectiveness and return on investment (ROI). Users must rate the 10 benchmark questions on a scale of 1 (most critical) to 5 (least critical) as they relate to the organization's specific needs and priorities.
If you're a senior PMO professional or a CTO/CIO considering an assessment of a PPM tool for your organization or department, this PDF presentation can help you consider the right questions before making any decision.
このテンプレートは、プロジェクトの結果に焦点を当て、理解するのに役立ちます：技術的な成功、ビジネス上の利点、学んだ教訓。 調査結果は、最終的な調整と調整を行い、プロジェクトを効果的に閉じ、将来のプロジェクトを効果的に実施する組織の能力に貢献するのに役立ちます。
To better align projects with sustainability and social impact, PMOs should clearly communicate the connections between the project, the organization’s strategy, and stakeholder expectations to the project manager early.
By deliberately fostering targeted career development skills, PMOs can elevate their teams into strategic contributors who deliver value well beyond immediate project outcomes. Here's how to integrate career development within the PMO setting.
For most PMOs, there is no shortage of significant challenges that need to be overcome. Deciding which to prioritize is key. The answer? Spend your energies working on areas of project delivery that you can control
We live in a world of accelerating change that forces a range of new pressures on the PMO. These are pressures that the traditional PMO is ill-equipped to deal with. How do we embrace a more agile approach without losing value?
By integrating capacity data into portfolio governance, PMOs can address chronic challenges. Use these five actionable steps to establish capacity transparency, strengthen cross‑functional alignment, and embed TCM into portfolio‑level decision‑making.
This paper presents a theoretical framework for metrics selection, implementation strategies aligned with organizational maturity levels, and evidence-based recommendations for PMO leaders seeking to enhance organizational project management capabilities.
It’s not that PMOs have lost relevance; it’s that their traditional measures no longer reflect the truth of modern delivery. Agile doesn’t dislike measurement, it actually wants better measurement. And the most forward-thinking agile PMOs are redefining their purpose.
PMOs that find themselves comfortable with AI will move more quickly, operate smarter, and deliver more value. PMOs that resist this new direction will soon find themselves trapped in their own processes.
It’s never too late to make meaningful changes in your PMO. Here’s a roundup of 24 small-but-mighty things to focus on to take your PMO processes and people to the next level.
With an unmovable deadline approaching and no methodology, there is panic at the toy workshop. But not for long! Read how the North Pole PMO was born!
Attempting to merge your delivery lead and PMO lead roles is a prescription for disaster. The notion of short-term cost savings by having a single resource fulfill both roles is typically destroyed once concentrated delivery activities begin.
The proliferation of AI within organizations is fundamentally transforming PMOs. AI introduces a new level of data-driven decision-making, enabling PMOs to move beyond intuition and historical data toward predictive analytics and real-time insights.
If your PMO was a cake, what sort would it be? As the baker, you have to mix the right blend of ingredients with a strong recipe to get an outcome that delivers every time.
There's a common challenge for PMOs today, one that is not being addressed often enough—they spend too much time looking backward, and not enough time looking forward.
When the backbone of a major youth entrepreneurship program failed just weeks before launch, this practitioner had to make a critical decision: delay the program or adapt on the fly.
PMOs have become more business-focused. But as they evolve, organizations must ensure that the fundamentals that PMOs were previously accountable for aren’t left behind.

"Impartial observers from other planets would consider ours an utterly bizarre enclave if it were populated by birds, defined as flying animals, that nevertheless rarely or never actually flew. They would also be perplexed if they encountered in our seas, lakes, rivers and ponds, creatures defined as swimmers that never did any swimming. But they would be even more surprised to encounter a species defined as a thinking animal if, in fact, the creature very rarely indulged in actual thinking." - Steve Allen |
