Results are typically released within about 10 days after the exam. The good news is that they’re ready and scheduled to be shared today, so you should receive an update shortly.

Why do some teams thrive while others simply get by—even when they’re equally skilled?
Frederick Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory explains that to truly motivate a team, you must go beyond fixing what’s broken. While hygiene factors like job security and working conditions prevent dissatisfaction, motivators—such as growth opportunities and recognition—drive long-term engagement and performance.
In project environments where pressure is high and timelines are tight, understanding this distinction is crucial. It helps leaders build not just functional teams, but inspired ones.

PMO Executive at Independent Consultant – PMO, Programme & Project Delivery,18 Feb 2026 at 11:46 amDelivery is easy to measure however value is not.
Most PMO portfolios proudly report on:
% on-time
% on-budget
Milestones achievedBut here’s the real question i’m interested in:
How much of your PMO portfolio is benefits-tracked 6–12 months after go-live?
Not forecasted.
Not estimated.
Actually measured.In an AI-enabled world where reporting is automated, the differentiator won’t be better dashboards, it will be better value governance.
Curious to hear from this community:
Who owns benefits realisation in your organisation…….Business, Finance, IT, or the PMO?
