Welcome to the PMO Strategies Podcast + Blog, where PMO leaders become IMPACT Drivers!
PMI Talent Triangle: Power Skills
You did the assessment. You designed the service around what people said they needed. You launched it, trained everyone, published the templates, and built the SharePoint page.
Then someone submits the old intake form. An executive bypasses the new prioritization process. The governance meeting becomes another status update, and you are left wondering why people are resisting the very thing they asked for.
I know how frustrating that feels. I also know the launch may not be where the problem started.
In this episode, I’m taking you into the space between “we launched it” and “this is how we work now.”
You’ll hear:
🔹 Why rollout activity can look successful while behavior stays exactly the same.
🔹 How to define adoption in language your stakeholders will recognize.
🔹 What early users can reveal about design, support, accountability, and friction.
🔹 How to reinforce a new habit when the old way feels faster.
Press play to learn how to give the PMO services you have already built a real chance to create the business value they were designed to deliver.
P.S. If you know your PMO needs more funding, authority, or resources, but you are struggling to make the case in a way your executives will understand, join me for my free training, How to Build a Business Case for a Strategy-Driven PMO. I’ll show you how to connect the PMO to the business problems your executives already care about and make the case for the support you need.
