Increasingly descriptions of the PM role and PMO responsibilities emphasis projects are investments and participants must support all things benefits. For example the 6th Edition of the PMBoK-Guide®’s description of the project manager discusses “…[and] may also be involved in follow-on activities related to realizing business benefits (pg51)”

Whether or not the PM is ’involved,’ the PMBoK-Guide does not provide any Tools or Techniques by which: we can facilitate business leaders to crystallise “what we will see and experience when benefits are flowing in a desired future.” If, as diligent experts we are to support benefits then the responsibilities of the PM must include interacting with the business at each the end of the project life cycle. To do this, we need competencies – knowledge & behaviours we practice to develop skills.

This presentation focuses on pragmatic guidance. It gives awareness of concepts, steps, tools and techniques for leaders, managers, facilitators and analysts.

• Why senior leaders are forced into change – VUCA Market-place pressures
• Facilitating the top-table debate – with a CFO/FD’s blessing for the value proposition
• Crystallising the Target Operating Model for cascade as binary, testable confirmations
• Preparing to help people through the Shock, Anger, Resistant curve to Acceptance and Helping (SARAH)
• Translating cascade (back-casting vision) into the business’s momentum and the project team’s milestones
• Linking both backlog and/or breakdown structure to risk & reward (cash-flows and social returns for Value for Money and/or Shareholder value)”
