Why do teams avoid discussing risks until something goes wrong?

Teams often see risks early but raising them can have consequences: additional reporting, defending your judgement or being seen as unable to manage the project.

That makes waiting understandable.

Which PMO challenge do you believe is the most difficult to overcome in organisations today?

For me, the biggest challenge is turning project management competence into organisational capability and measurable impact.

If redesigning a PMO, I would start with three questions: What decisions should it improve? What strategic outcomes should it influence? How will we know it creates value?

Governance, reporting and tools should follow from there.

The article explores how organisations can strengthen strategy execution by connecting professional competence, effective project governance, organisational capability and benefits realisation.

I hope it contributes to the ongoing discussion on how organisations can create lasting organisational value.

I look forward to hearing your thoughts and experiences.
