Success will be built upon a back-bone of best-practice methodologies, processes and relationships that serve the changing demands of the business. In order to step up as a true business partner in your organisation, PMO professionals must rise above process and emerge as strategic leaders, driving strategy and engaging stakeholders at all levels, from the senior leadership team to the front line. Research indicates that a successfully integrated PMO can yield up three times higher project success rate. When it comes to demonstrating value as a PMO it is critical to understand the unique business needs and drivers at play, and develop a clear and practical measure for performance. The PMO Leadership Summit 2016 will address the unique trends, challenges and opportunities faced by project, portfolio and programme professionals, and provide practical strategies to emerge in your organisation as a true business partner. Register team members early to engage in a progressive conversation about how to fully unlock the value of the PMO in your organisation.
Day One 23 February 2016 Refining Processes, Governance and Drivin PLUS WORKSHOPS! Plus Two Separately Bookable Full-Day Workshops on 22 & 25 February 2016 8.30 - 8.55 Registration and Morning Coffee 8.55 - 9.10 SUMMIT GO LIVE! – Official Welcome and Opening Remarks from the Chair 9.10 - 9.50 OPENING KEYNOTE CASE STUDY Hits and misses – Reflections on establishing a PMO at Bupa In mid-2009 Phil was brought on board by Bupa to start a business-led PMO from scratch in order to facilitate a large transformation portfolio of work. This undertaking formed a complex program of development, spanning tools, templates, process and people, ultimately built on the fostering of trust across the business. Winning the hearts and minds of the Bupa community was crucial for the establishment and success of its PMO, clearly communicating the value of the function, and ensuring it was doing ‘the right things’ at ‘the right time’ and, most importantly, in ‘the right way.’ In this session Phil will reflect on the steps taken, the challenges along the way, achievements and lessons learned in the following areas: • Strategic roadmap planning, development, execution and reporting • Introducing bespoke project and portfolio scoring processes, development and implementation • Benefits realisation development and rollout • Project manager capability development • Introducing a PPM system to Bupa • Coping with the politics Phil Nash Head of Enterprise PMO Bupa Australia 9.50 - 10.00 Questions and Discussion 10.00 - 10.40 CASE STUDY Excellence in Enterprise Projects Delivery – Implementing regulatory change in a multi brand, multi channel environment With more than 15 years’ experience leading large-scale, complex transformational programs, business re-engineering and change management, Marina heads up Westpac’s Enterprise Projects Delivery, leading a team of 250 and portfolio investments of over $150 million in budget. Project excellence in financial services brings its own set of challenges, from effectively managing recent regulatory change to the complexities of multi-channel delivery and leading implementation teams over different brands. In this session, Marina positions the PMO within a broader organisational scope and breaks down the inner workings of providing excellence in enterprise delivery. Discuss: • Technical insights into effectively managing regulatory change • Driving value in multi-brand, multi-channel, multi-system delivery Marina Bobrov Head of Enterprise Projects Delivery Westpac 10.40 - 10.50 Questions and Discussion 10.50 - 11.05 Morning Tea 11.05 - 11.45 CASE STUDY Proactive PMO partnerships - A science or an art? A proactive PMO can unlock a dynamic value stream for an organisation, reaching beyond the support role of straight status reports and governance to provide education, understanding and insight throughout a portfolio’s whole life-cycle. This places people at the core of a successful PMO, forming rich and informed relationships at all layers of the business to balance programme engagement from the board level through to delivery. In this session, Wendy shares the latest best practice from RACQ, slices and dices through different aspects of a portfolio, and champions the vital role of experienced hands-on Project Managers providing support for a successful PMO. Snapshot: • Engaging with strategic objectives, from conception to delivery • Support and education at all levels of the business • Tackling uncertainty in a PMO - when is uncertainty acceptable? Wendy Scott General Manager, Group PMO RACQ 11.45 - 11.55 Questions and Discussion 11.55 - 12.35 CASE STUDY A new world PMO - Reinventing the Australian Tax Office Belinda Robertson is Assistant Commissioner of the ATO Enterprise Portfolio Management Office.

In this session, Belinda will share the ATO’s blueprint for reinvention, the trends, challenges and opportunities to drive change and value, including: • Define capability, develop experience • Leading ongoing programs and change management Belinda Robertson Assistant Commissioner, ATO Enterprise Portfolio Management Office Australian Taxation Office 12.35 - 12.45 Questions and Discussion 12.45 - 1.45 Networking Lunch 1.45 - 2.35 INTERACTIVE PANEL DISCUSSION Foundations for PMO excellence – Engaging leadership, driving change and measuring success One of greatest challenges for a thriving PMO lies in its perceived role by the business and questions around its value contribution. Despite research indicating that a successfully integrated PMO can yield up three times higher project success rate, many PMOs aren’t utilised to thier full potential in many organisations. Driving strong and consistent project management practices and methodologies is crucial, but this is just the foundation of value for a high-performing PMO. When it comes to demonstrating value it is critical to understand the unique business needs and drivers at play, and develop a clear and practical measure for performance. This interactive panel discussion will open the floor to the latest challenges, trends and opportunities for PMO professionals to deliver outstanding results. The discussion will include: • Organisational change management • Defining, agreeing on and effectively articulating metrics and success criteria • Gaining stakeholder buy-in and engaging business leaders Matthew Gygi Principal Manager, Project Management Office Transport for NSW David Thurkle General Manager, Enterprise PMO and Workforce Management National Australia Bank Sonia Greguol General Manager, Portfolio Management and Delivery Jemena Carolyn Blackburn General Manager, Projects HESTA 2.35 - 3.15 CASE STUDY VALUE PLUS DISCOUNT Receive up to $400 off registration if you register and pay by 29 October 2015

In NSW, 67 billion tonne kilometres of freight is moved annually and the value of the products carried exceeds $200 billion. Transport of freight is critical to the State economy and the efficiency of the transport network contributes to the success and growth of NSW as well as being significant to maintaining national defence interests and capability. Matthew integrated with the Freight and Regional Development (FRD) team at the start-up of their program of works and built the foundation of the project management systems which FRD currently employ. This has been key to cementing the group’s forward progress being unified and cohesive towards full implementation of the NSW Cabinet approved Freight and Ports Strategy. In this session, Matt discusses how to move PMO beyond process excellence and emerge as business leader. Matthew Gygi Principal Manager, Project Management Office Transport for NSW 3.15 - 3.25 Questions and Discussion 3.25 - 3.40 Afternoon Tea 3.50 - 4.30 EXPERT COMMENTARY How to influence people and win projects A successful PMO actively engages with a business at all levels, providing leadership within program process and delivery, building strength and consistency, and managing risk from a broader strategic perspective. As a support hub, even an informal PMO provides crucial governance, structure and leadership and the key to enhancing an organisation’s effectiveness can often lie in your ability to engage and influence stakeholders. In this session, Deborah unlocks how to be a leader of change, how to motivate positive change in others and how to optimise your project and program performance. Discuss: • Risk management, escalation and stakeholder engagement • Developing success criteria and effectively communicating outcomes • Demonstrating leadership Deborah Bispham Director and Founder Life Changing Solutions 4.20 - 4.30 Questions and Discussion 4.30 Concluding Remarks from the Chair Day Two 24 February 2016 NETWORKING RECEPTION 4.30 - 5.30 Make the most of your Liquid Learning experience, join us to network over complimentary canapés and drinks 8.30 - 8.55 Morning Coffee 8.55 - 9.00 Opening Remarks from the Chair 9.00 - 9.40 OPENING CASE STUDY Governance, execution and operational excellence – An enterprise-wide model Telstra’s enterprise-wide PMO manages planning, governance and financial processes of its multi-billion capital investment programme, providing strategic oversight for multi-year capital plans and in-year expenditure, project delivery status, risks and benefit outcomes. Heading up the ePMO, Rob brings over 25 years’ experience to the role, leading the central Capital Planning ePMO team and supporting the distributed business unit programme management offices. In this session Rob looks at the challenges of establishing and managing an enterprise-wide model and the opportunities to articulate and drive value. Explore: • Mobilising large work programmes • Leading project interventions, recoveries and audits • Governance and execution processes Rob Loader Director, Head of Enterprise PMO Telstra 9.40 - 9.50 Questions and Discussion 9.50 - 10.30 EXPERT COMMENTARY Leading centres of excellence (Cool cats, not watchdogs) Perception can be a tricky beast to tame, and one of the most challenging obstacles to developing an effective PMO that delivers high strategic value to an organisation. Striving for excellence in a support function which can often be seen as a watchdog, means challenging those perceptions, ensuring practical delivery of process improvement and consistency, and strategic alignment with broader organisational needs. PMO best practise should transform the function into a business enabler, and a true centre of excellence for any organisation. In this session, Priya shares not only her own experiences establishing a high-performing PMO at the University of Melbourne, but also insights as Director of the PMI Melbourne Chapter. Delivery: • Building capability and consistency • Enabling process improvement and innovation • Engaging with core groups, leads and initiatives Priya Ravindra Program Manager University of Melbourne Board Member Project Management Institute (PMI) Melbourne Chapter 10.30 - 10.40 Questions and Discussion 10.40 - 10.55 Morning Tea 10.55 - 11.35 CASE STUDY Getting the right fit – Frameworks and technology In order to deliver optimum value, a successful PMO must do more than meet the technical and tactical requirements of an organisation, it must pre-empt its needs and ensure its people, policies and procedures all fit into the organisation’s strategic direction. In order to create a unified centre of excellence and information calls for the development of a PMO charter and service

In order to really deliver at this level, managers and directors need to bring a unity of purpose and understanding across the organisation, upwards to senior leadership while not forgetting to work downwards to the front line of the business. In this session, Duncan confronts the state of the modern PMO from a business perspective. Discuss: • Create unity of purpose and understanding • Establish and build the confidence in the processes and their outcomes • Engage accross all levels, from leadership to the front line Duncan Kinnaird Executive Director Giant4 3.05 - 3.15 Questions and Discussion 3.15 - 3.30 Afternoon Tea 3.30 - 4.20 INTERACTIVE CLOSING ROUNDTABLE Future directions for PMO leadership - Creating the next-generation PMO As Colin brings the Summit to a close, he will encourage delegates to distil valuable lessons and reflect on advice received throughout the event. From the points identified, participants will be asked to prioritise the factors that they believe will have the biggest impact on their personal performance as PMO professional and leader. This empowering discussion provides a valuable opportunity to translate learning into a plan of action. Discuss: • Key learnings and take-aways from the conference • Putting it into practice – Drawing up actionable plans • Leadership transition strategies and how you can support other business unit leaders • Insights on the next generation PMO - What will be different? Colin Ellis Project Management Leadership and Culture Specialist Project Management Hangout 4.20 Concluding Remarks from the Chair and Summit Close catalogue, integrated end-to-end project inception to execution. In this session, Margaret shares how the Department of Treasury and Finance have gone about getting the right fit, and taking PMO to the next level. Explore: • Stakeholder engagement and communication • Understanding and leveraging technology environment • Defining support mechanism such as Kick off and Health check meetings • Providing project management training • Developing tools and templates • Developing PMO Charter and Service Catalogue Margaret Eshak PMO/TRIM Project Manager Department of Treasury and Finance, VIC 11.35 - 11.45 Questions and Discussion 11.45 - 12.25 CASE STUDY Risk Vs Mandate – Leading PMO in an operational business The platform for PMO excellence draws on an industry’s own unique business drivers. When it comes to building an effective, high performing PMO the greatest success can often stem from a critical understanding of the inherent challenges. For an operationally-centred organisation without an historical focus on project management, a strategically positioned PMO can be a significant driver of capability, efficiencies and vision, but leaders must first identify opportunities to add value, and develop a proposition to overcome cultural resistance. In this session, Andrew lays out the building blocks of Boral’s PMO, the challenges, triumphs and possibilities to come. Checklist: • Identify and align PMO with business drivers • Lift awareness, skill sets and best practice – What does good project management look like? • Strive for excellence through visibility Andrew Legge General Manager, PMO Boral 12.25 - 12.35 Questions and Discussion 12.35 - 1.35 Networking Lunch 1.35 - 2.15 EXPERT COMMENTARY There’s no such thing as ‘one size fits all’ In order to drive value for an organisation, the PMO must rise above process and emerge as a business leader, but effective project management is not knowledge alone, it is the application of knowledge, and drives overall strategic competency. This is not a one-size-fits-all solution – in order to build true PMO leadership it is essential to develop a clear understanding of not only the unique business drivers and core strategy, but also the people and cultural value of the PMO within an organisation. In this session, Fatima explores how you can take your PMO to the next level and establish the foundation for future excellence. Includes: • Identifying key trends and business needs • Align process and methodologies with organisational objectives • Lay down an easy-to-follow foundation in line with organisational culture Fatimah Abbouchi Founder and Chief Executive Officer BoochiCo 2.15 - 2.25 Questions and Discussion
9.00 - 4.30 Pillars of Excellence – Leading PMO Methodology, Process and Governance As with any key value driver in an organisation, best-practice processes and procedures are the back-bone of a successful PMO. Lack of or double handling of documents, endless reporting that is inconsistent, and slow, hard to follow processes could all have a negative impact on a business’s productivity, projects and costs. The PMO is central to consolidating effective process with core business strategy and deliver improved efficiency. From analysis through implementation, highly effective PMOs must ensure business processes, people and technology are working in complete alignment. To meet this challenge and drive a firmer alignment of methodologies, governance and planning processes with organisational strategy, practitioners and project leaders must consider the latest tools and strategies. This full-day, interactive workshop has been designed to provide the practical and personalised guidance vital for understanding the evolving role of the PMO as a strategic driver. Prepare to get hands-on in this intensive workshop format, as facilitator Fatimah Abbouchi draws directly from participants’ own experiences, unique challenges and development areas to create an outline for the successful planning, implementation and operation of a high performing PMO. Combining practical frameworks and participant engagement, key skills and insights include: • PMO as strategic partner • Identifying key trends and business needs • Planning to align PMO methodologies, process and governance with organisational business outcomes • Exploration of current best-practice frameworks and strategic deliverables • Refining strategic stakeholder engagement • Developing performance measures that link to strategic goals • Maintaining the momentum for change Expert Facilitator: Fatimah Abbouchi Founder and Chief Executive Officer BoochiCo Fatimah Abbouchi is a certified Business and Project Management Professional with over 12 years industry experience.

Success will be built upon a back-bone of best-practice methodologies, processes and relationships that serve the changing demands of the business.

Research indicates that a successfully integrated PMO can yield up three times higher project success rate. When it comes to demonstrating value as a PMO it is critical to understand the unique business needs and drivers at play, and develop a clear and practical measure for performance. The PMO Leadership Summit 2016 will address the unique trends, challenges and opportunities faced by project, portfolio and programme professionals, and provide practical strategies to emerge in your organisation as a true business partner. Register team members early to engage in a progressive conversation about how to fully unlock the value of the PMO in your organisation.

    Day One 23February 2016 Refining Processes, Governance and Drivin PLUS WORKSHOPS! Plus Two Separately Bookable Full-Day Workshops on 22 & 25 February 2016 8.30 - 8.55 Registration and Morning Coffee 8.55 - 9.10 SUMMIT GO LIVE! – Official Welcome and Opening Remarks from the Chair 9.10 - 9.50 OPENING KEYNOTE CASE STUDY Hits and misses – Reflections on establishing a PMO at Bupa In mid-2009 Phil was brought on board by Bupa to start a business-led PMO from scratch in order to facilitate a large transformation portfolio of work. This undertaking formed a complex program of development, spanning tools, templates, process and people, ultimately built on the fostering of trust across the business. Winning the hearts and minds of the Bupa community was crucial for the establishment and success of its PMO, clearly communicating the value of the function, and ensuring it was doing ‘the right things’ at ‘the right time’ and, most importantly, in ‘the right way.’ In this session Phil will reflect on the steps taken, the challenges along the way, achievements and lessons learned in the following areas: • Strategic roadmap planning, development, execution and reporting • Introducing bespoke project and portfolio scoring processes, development and implementation • Benefits realisation development and rollout • Project manager capability development • Introducing a PPM system to Bupa • Coping with the politics Phil Nash Head of Enterprise PMO Bupa Australia 9.50 - 10.00 Questions and Discussion 10.00 - 10.40 CASE STUDY Excellence in Enterprise Projects Delivery – Implementing regulatory change in a multi brand, multi channel environment With more than 15 years’ experience leading large-scale, complex transformational programs, business re-engineering and change management, Marina heads up Westpac’s Enterprise Projects Delivery, leading a team of 250 and portfolio investments of over $150 million in budget. Project excellence in financial services brings its own set of challenges, from effectively managing recent regulatory change to the complexities of multi-channel delivery and leading implementation teams over different brands. In this session, Marina positions the PMO within a broader organisational scope and breaks down the inner workings of providing excellence in enterprise delivery. Discuss: • Technical insights into effectively managing regulatory change • Driving value in multi-brand, multi-channel, multi-system delivery Marina Bobrov Head of Enterprise Projects Delivery Westpac 10.40 - 10.50 Questions and Discussion 10.50 - 11.05 Morning Tea 11.05 - 11.45 CASE STUDY Proactive PMO partnerships - A science or an art? A proactive PMO can unlock a dynamic value stream for an organisation, reaching beyond the support role of straight status reports and governance to provide education, understanding and insight throughout a portfolio’s whole life-cycle. This places people at the core of a successful PMO, forming rich and informed relationships at all layers of the business to balance programme engagement from the board level through to delivery. In this session, Wendy shares the latest best practice from RACQ, slices and dices through different aspects of a portfolio, and champions the vital role of experienced hands-on Project Managers providing support for a successful PMO. Snapshot: • Engaging with strategic objectives, from conception to delivery • Support and education at all levels of the business • Tackling uncertainty in a PMO - when is uncertainty acceptable? Wendy Scott General Manager, Group PMO RACQ 11.45 - 11.55 Questions and Discussion 11.55 - 12.35 CASE STUDY A new world PMO - Reinventing the Australian Tax Office Belinda Robertson is Assistant Commissioner of the ATO Enterprise Portfolio Management Office. She joined the ATO in April 2010 and has corporate ownership and accountability of P3 (portfolio, program and project) management within the Australian Taxation Office. In this session, Belinda will share the ATO’s blueprint for reinvention, the trends, challenges and opportunities to drive change and value, including: • Define capability, develop experience • Leading ongoing programs and change management Belinda Robertson Assistant Commissioner, ATO Enterprise Portfolio Management Office Australian Taxation Office 12.35 - 12.45 Questions and Discussion 12.45 - 1.45 Networking Lunch 1.45 - 2.35 INTERACTIVE PANEL DISCUSSION Foundations for PMO excellence – Engaging leadership, driving change and measuring success One of greatest challenges for a thriving PMO lies in its perceived role by the business and questions around its value contribution. Despite research indicating that a successfully integrated PMO can yield up three times higher project success rate, many PMOs aren’t utilised to thier full potential in many organisations. Driving strong and consistent project management practices and methodologies is crucial, but this is just the foundation of value for a high-performing PMO. When it comes to demonstrating value it is critical to understand the unique business needs and drivers at play, and develop a clear and practical measure for performance. This interactive panel discussion will open the floor to the latest challenges, trends and opportunities for PMO professionals to deliver outstanding results. The discussion will include: • Organisational change management • Defining, agreeing on and effectively articulating metrics and success criteria • Gaining stakeholder buy-in and engaging business leaders Matthew Gygi Principal Manager, Project Management Office Transport for NSW David Thurkle General Manager, Enterprise PMO and Workforce Management National Australia Bank Sonia Greguol General Manager, Portfolio Management and Delivery Jemena Carolyn Blackburn General Manager, Projects HESTA 2.35 - 3.15 CASE STUDY VALUE PLUS DISCOUNT Receive up to $400 off registration if you register and pay by 29 October 2015

In NSW, 67 billion tonne kilometres of freight is moved annually and the value of the products carried exceeds $200 billion. Transport of freight is critical to the State economy and the efficiency of the transport network contributes to the success and growth of NSW as well as being significant to maintaining national defence interests and capability. Matthew integrated with the Freight and Regional Development (FRD) team at the start-up of their program of works and built the foundation of the project management systems which FRD currently employ. This has been key to cementing the group’s forward progress being unified and cohesive towards full implementation of the NSW Cabinet approved Freight and Ports Strategy. In this session, Matt discusses how to move PMO beyond process excellence and emerge as business leader. Matthew Gygi Principal Manager, Project Management Office Transport for NSW 3.15 - 3.25 Questions and Discussion 3.25 - 3.40 Afternoon Tea 3.50 - 4.30 EXPERT COMMENTARY How to influence people and win projects A successful PMO actively engages with a business at all levels, providing leadership within program process and delivery, building strength and consistency, and managing risk from a broader strategic perspective. As a support hub, even an informal PMO provides crucial governance, structure and leadership and the key to enhancing an organisation’s effectiveness can often lie in your ability to engage and influence stakeholders. In this session, Deborah unlocks how to be a leader of change, how to motivate positive change in others and how to optimise your project and program performance. Discuss: • Risk management, escalation and stakeholder engagement • Developing success criteria and effectively communicating outcomes • Demonstrating leadership Deborah Bispham Director and Founder Life Changing Solutions 4.20 - 4.30 Questions and Discussion 4.30 Concluding Remarks from the Chair Day Two 24 February 2016 NETWORKING RECEPTION 4.30 - 5.30 Make the most of your Liquid Learning experience, join us to network over complimentary canapés and drinks 8.30 - 8.55 Morning Coffee 8.55 - 9.00 Opening Remarks from the Chair 9.00 - 9.40 OPENING CASE STUDY Governance, execution and operational excellence – An enterprise-wide model Telstra’s enterprise-wide PMO manages planning, governance and financial processes of its multi-billion capital investment programme, providing strategic oversight for multi-year capital plans and in-year expenditure, project delivery status, risks and benefit outcomes. Heading up the ePMO, Rob brings over 25 years’ experience to the role, leading the central Capital Planning ePMO team and supporting the distributed business unit programme management offices. In this session Rob looks at the challenges of establishing and managing an enterprise-wide model and the opportunities to articulate and drive value. Explore: • Mobilising large work programmes • Leading project interventions, recoveries and audits • Governance and execution processes Rob Loader Director, Head of Enterprise PMO Telstra 9.40 - 9.50 Questions and Discussion 9.50 - 10.30 EXPERT COMMENTARY Leading centres of excellence (Cool cats, not watchdogs) Perception can be a tricky beast to tame, and one of the most challenging obstacles to developing an effective PMO that delivers high strategic value to an organisation. Striving for excellence in a support function which can often be seen as a watchdog, means challenging those perceptions, ensuring practical delivery of process improvement and consistency, and strategic alignment with broader organisational needs. PMO best practise should transform the function into a business enabler, and a true centre of excellence for any organisation. In this session, Priya shares not only her own experiences establishing a high-performing PMO at the University of Melbourne, but also insights as Director of the PMI Melbourne Chapter. Delivery: • Building capability and consistency • Enabling process improvement and innovation • Engaging with core groups, leads and initiatives Priya Ravindra Program Manager University of Melbourne Board Member Project Management Institute (PMI) Melbourne Chapter 10.30 - 10.40 Questions and Discussion 10.40 - 10.55 Morning Tea 10.55 - 11.35 CASE STUDY Getting the right fit – Frameworks and technology In order to deliver optimum value, a successful PMO must do more than meet the technical and tactical requirements of an organisation, it must pre-empt its needs and ensure its people, policies and procedures all fit into the organisation’s strategic direction. In order to create a unified centre of excellence and information calls for the development of a PMO charter and service

In order to really deliver at this level, managers and directors need to bring a unity of purpose and understanding across the organisation, upwards to senior leadership while not forgetting to work downwards to the front line of the business. In this session, Duncan confronts the state of the modern PMO from a business perspective. Discuss: • Create unity of purpose and understanding • Establish and build the confidence in the processes and their outcomes • Engage accross all levels, from leadership to the front line Duncan Kinnaird Executive Director Giant4 3.05 - 3.15 Questions and Discussion 3.15 - 3.30 Afternoon Tea 3.30 - 4.20 INTERACTIVE CLOSING ROUNDTABLE Future directions for PMO leadership - Creating the next-generation PMO As Colin brings the Summit to a close, he will encourage delegates to distil valuable lessons and reflect on advice received throughout the event. From the points identified, participants will be asked to prioritise the factors that they believe will have the biggest impact on their personal performance as PMO professional and leader. This empowering discussion provides a valuable opportunity to translate learning into a plan of action. Discuss: • Key learnings and take-aways from the conference • Putting it into practice – Drawing up actionable plans • Leadership transition strategies and how you can support other business unit leaders • Insights on the next generation PMO - What will be different? Colin Ellis Project Management Leadership and Culture Specialist Project Management Hangout 4.20 Concluding Remarks from the Chair and Summit Close catalogue, integrated end-to-end project inception to execution. In this session, Margaret shares how the Department of Treasury and Finance have gone about getting the right fit, and taking PMO to the next level. Explore: • Stakeholder engagement and communication • Understanding and leveraging technology environment • Defining support mechanism such as Kick off and Health check meetings • Providing project management training • Developing tools and templates • Developing PMO Charter and Service Catalogue Margaret Eshak PMO/TRIM Project Manager Department of Treasury and Finance, VIC 11.35 - 11.45 Questions and Discussion 11.45 - 12.25 CASE STUDY Risk Vs Mandate – Leading PMO in an operational business The platform for PMO excellence draws on an industry’s own unique business drivers. When it comes to building an effective, high performing PMO the greatest success can often stem from a critical understanding of the inherent challenges. For an operationally-centred organisation without an historical focus on project management, a strategically positioned PMO can be a significant driver of capability, efficiencies and vision, but leaders must first identify opportunities to add value, and develop a proposition to overcome cultural resistance. In this session, Andrew lays out the building blocks of Boral’s PMO, the challenges, triumphs and possibilities to come. Checklist: • Identify and align PMO with business drivers • Lift awareness, skill sets and best practice – What does good project management look like? • Strive for excellence through visibility Andrew Legge General Manager, PMO Boral 12.25 - 12.35 Questions and Discussion 12.35 - 1.35 Networking Lunch 1.35 - 2.15 EXPERT COMMENTARY There’s no such thing as ‘one size fits all’ In order to drive value for an organisation, the PMO must rise above process and emerge as a business leader, but effective project management is not knowledge alone, it is the application of knowledge, and drives overall strategic competency. This is not a one-size-fits-all solution – in order to build true PMO leadership it is essential to develop a clear understanding of not only the unique business drivers and core strategy, but also the people and cultural value of the PMO within an organisation. In this session, Fatima explores how you can take your PMO to the next level and establish the foundation for future excellence. Includes: • Identifying key trends and business needs • Align process and methodologies with organisational objectives • Lay down an easy-to-follow foundation in line with organisational culture Fatimah Abbouchi Founder and Chief Executive Officer BoochiCo 2.15 - 2.25 Questions and Discussion

    9.00 - 4.30 Pillarsof Excellence – Leading PMO Methodology, Process and Governance As with any key value driver in an organisation, best-practice processes and procedures are the back-bone of a successful PMO. Lack of or double handling of documents, endless reporting that is inconsistent, and slow, hard to follow processes could all have a negative impact on a business’s productivity, projects and costs. The PMO is central to consolidating effective process with core business strategy and deliver improved efficiency. From analysis through implementation, highly effective PMOs must ensure business processes, people and technology are working in complete alignment. To meet this challenge and drive a firmer alignment of methodologies, governance and planning processes with organisational strategy, practitioners and project leaders must consider the latest tools and strategies. This full-day, interactive workshop has been designed to provide the practical and personalised guidance vital for understanding the evolving role of the PMO as a strategic driver. Prepare to get hands-on in this intensive workshop format, as facilitator Fatimah Abbouchi draws directly from participants’ own experiences, unique challenges and development areas to create an outline for the successful planning, implementation and operation of a high performing PMO. Combining practical frameworks and participant engagement, key skills and insights include: • PMO as strategic partner • Identifying key trends and business needs • Planning to align PMO methodologies, process and governance with organisational business outcomes • Exploration of current best-practice frameworks and strategic deliverables • Refining strategic stakeholder engagement • Developing performance measures that link to strategic goals • Maintaining the momentum for change Expert Facilitator: Fatimah Abbouchi Founder and Chief Executive Officer BoochiCo Fatimah Abbouchi is a certified Business and Project Management Professional with over 12 years industry experience.
