Completely understand that it is a standard and it shouldn’t be fun reading it, but it was really boring experience (though, of course, useful). Like the concept of product/service deliverable -> benefit (in format of capability) -> value recognition talking about project, program and portfolio major goals.

Read this for work. The info was decent but a total slog to finish.

PMI Standard related to Portfolio Management. Like the PMBOK Guide, it is a reference when you are working with portfolios. It is not a book to teach you portfolio management. it is reference.

Padrão do PMI para Gerenciamento de Portfólio. Como o PMBOK Guide, ele é uma referencia quando você estiver trabalhando com portfólios. Não é um livro para ensiná-lo a gerenciar portfólios. Ele é uma referência de consulta.

The book fails to be "invaluable for portfolio managers and aspiring portfolio managers, [...] an important reference for anyone who works with portfolios—from project and program managers to project stakeholders and senior managers."

In fact, I don't learn anything after reading this book.

Great reference book on Portfolio Management... Probably the best technical book on Portfolio Management out there at the moment
