Extraordinary Project Management Mastery
in Mobilisation APM PMO SIG Marion Thomas and Sarah Walton https://www.extraordinarypm.com
2.
Our hypothesis 2© Gold
Heron Ltd 2020 Programmes don’t go wrong… .... they start wrong
3.
Where being Extraordinary
has taken us 3 Printing Publishing Airlines Telecomm s Financial sector Manufacturing AgChem / Pharma Public Sector We can (and have) brought our expertise to: Any industry sector Any type of project/programme Any business imperative for a project Any function within business This is just a selection of our clients – there are many more © Gold Heron Ltd 2020
4.
Introducing our leaky
bucket concept Un-packing the strategy into a programme or group of programmes can lose things in translation It can feel like trying to carry water in a leaky bucket First you need to fix the leaks 4© Gold Heron Ltd 2020
5.
From idea to
action The strategy is usually formed by a small group of people behind closed doors 5© Gold Heron Ltd 2020 Once the idea is public the leader wants to get going
6.
From secret to
socialised 6© Gold Heron Ltd 2020 The problem is that, the vision has to be executed by a team....... ......... and if you just start running it will soon become clear that you don’t all have the same vision of where you are going and why you are going there
7.
Typical leaks we
encounter translating strategy or ideas into a programme? Misalignment of strategy, programme and projects Excessive pressure to move into action The devil is in the detail Hidden “dead moose” that needs to be surfaced and put on the table? Unclear scope of the projects needed to deliver the programme’s strategic intent 7© Gold Heron Ltd 2020
8.
Misalignment with the
strategy How does the programme contribute to the strategy? What is the business context for this? What is the “Big Why” for this programme? What are the specific outcomes that must be delivered? What’s non-negotiable? Where are the ”No Go” areas? 8© Gold Heron Ltd 2020
9.
Excessive pressure to
move to action Who knows this place? 9© Gold Heron Ltd 2020 We’ve got an idea so why haven’t we moved into action? NEED IDEA ACTION S T O P
10.
The devil is
in the detail Write it down Strategy iterates what and why but the thinkers are often divorced from the operational detail Operation needs to iterate what and how, but 10© Gold Heron Ltd 2020 People don’t share what they know Information is power Captain chaos Hero culture Our job is to unpack all the assumptions because If they are not written down it is easy to assume the thinking has not been done
11.
The devil is
in the detail Conflicting priorities There needs to be time to iterate around what, why and how to engage the wider team adding layers of detail, unpacking assumptions and exploring: Interdependencies with other programmes 11© Gold Heron Ltd 2020 Resource constraints Funding (capital, revenue & cash) Skills and people resource Equipment Diversionary activities Competing projects Personal agendas
12.
Mechanism to
hear challenge without distracting Allow people to go on journey Strategy & rationale not communicated in a way people can check / buy into it Dead moose under the table What is the nugget that keeps burning a hole in the bucket? Chinese whispers of communication Not invented here syndrome Personal perception on top Change aversion can cause selective hearing 12© Gold Heron Ltd 2020
13.
Unclear scope of
projects Completing the scope jigsaw Omissions Missing projects Missing dependencies Incorrect assumptions Assumptions not explicit Assumptions not tested Lack of focus Pet projects thrown in Not stopping non-strategic projects 13© Gold Heron Ltd 2020
14.
The magic we
bring as PMs Fixing the “strategy into programme” leaks Skills and experience to challenge the strategists Outcome thinking Delivery focus An eye for dependencies and critical path The ability to create certainty through assumptions Detail and 40,000 ft vision 14© Gold Heron Ltd 2020
15.
The ‘Big Why’ 15©
Gold Heron Ltd 2020 “In business it doesn’t matter what you do it, matters why you do it.” Simon Sinek At Extraordinary Project Management we use the term Target to define the ‘Big Why’ for our programmes
16.
Useful resources Concepts for
you to adapt and apply to Target 16© Gold Heron Ltd 2020 YouTube – fight Mediocrity is a great channel for business books in 15 minutes Start with Why - Simon Sinek book or watch his TED talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4ZoJKF_VuA The One Thing - Keller and Papasan read the book and / or watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MnFd34zXbY8 Made to Stick by Chip and Dan Heath https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0a8cFtMo8mk Our website - https://www.extraordinarypm.com
17.
Keep communicating your
Target 17© Gold Heron Ltd 2020 Once you have your Target keep re-iterating it to: Your Target is the sign-post that you use to align everyone involved in your programme Your team Your stakeholders Your sponsor The wider business
18.
Describing your Target
Choose a programme you are familiar with and note down Share your answers and come up with a strapline for the Target of your programme 18© Gold Heron Ltd 2020 What outcome do you need to achieve? How will you know when you have achieved it? What will be different when you are done?
