Welcome to the PMO Strategies Podcast + Blog, where PMO leaders become IMPACT Drivers!
PMI Talent Triangle: Business Acumen
AI activity is spreading across organizations faster than many leaders can see what it is costing, where it fits, or whether it is creating business value.
That is exactly why I believe this moment matters for PMO and transformation leaders.
In this episode, I’m joined by Cedric Fiederer to explore what happens when AI stops being a collection of experiments and starts becoming a real enterprise portfolio of investments, tradeoffs, risks, and strategic choices.
We get into the questions executives are increasingly going to ask, especially when AI funding starts competing with ERP upgrades, growth investments, capacity, and everything else already in the portfolio.
🔹 Why fragmented AI activity is becoming an enterprise decision problem
🔹 How the PMO can create visibility without building a giant layer of red tape
🔹 What leaders need to know about value, compliance, workforce risk, and tradeoffs
🔹 Where to start if nobody currently owns the enterprise picture
If your PMO has felt a little outside the AI conversation, this is the opportunity I do not want you to miss.
Press play to see how the PMO can help turn AI activity into strategic value.
