The Tactical Guide for Building a PMO will provide PMO Managers with the knowledge and skills to develop, refine, and enhance their Project Management Office (PMO). PMOs have been around for many years, until now PMO Managers have very few resources to help them be successful.There has been little to no tactical reference guides for anyone to use when building their PMOs. Most companies hired expensive contractors and industry experts that may or may not have known what they were doing when it comes to building a PMO.
This book takes you through PMO Models, Staffing Models, Methodologies, PMO Reporting, PMO Tools and Process, and much more.
If you want to learn about building or enhancing PMOs, this book is for you.
I have been in IT for the last 25 years with 23 of those years focusing on Project Management. I have built 6 Project Management Offices from the ground up using the best practices and core principals of PMI and have been a tactical project manager since 1991.
My latest book (my 4th) is called The PMO Lifecycle: Building, Running, and Shutting Down was published June 2017. This book is a major update to my book The Tactical Guide for Building a PMO. The great thing about this book is linked to an Online PMO course based on building, running, and shutting down a PMO. Information on the course can be found on http://www.dowpublishingllc.com/courses.
I am also the co-author of the Project Management Communication Tools. This book is a major update to my first book Project Management Communication Bible released in 2008 and was released May 2015.
My second book I wrote is called "The Tactical Guide for Building a PMO". The book takes my personal experience in building and implementing PMO's over a 10+ year period and puts it into a format that is easy to read and use for any PMO Manager.
