This creates rigidity and execution excellence for every project that comes through the pipe. PMOs that do not evolve may be consigned to managing projects that keep the business running rather than on strategic projects. Without this evolution, the PMO risks being phased out or restructured.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Characteristics_of_a_Savvy_PMO\"><\/span>The Characteristics of a Savvy PMO<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>A benefit of working as a Savvy PMO is the ability to create and sustain business value. This requires letting go of a some control to promote agility and innovation. While some oversight is necessary, the Savvy PMO is more of a servant leader and strategic advisor to the organization. A primary focus is on collaboration and portfolio-based management, over strict governance and delivering projects on time and on budget.<\/p>\n<p>Savvy PMOs employ just enough governance to facilitate execution while ensuring everyone is working on what&#8217;s most impactful. To achieve this, they have a strong command of demand management, prioritization, and resource planning. By centralizing and integrating these disciplines, PMO leadership provides executives and stakeholders visibility and reporting that drives faster, more informed decision-making.<\/p>\n<p>No longer a bureaucratic entity, Savvy PMO leaders become trusted guides. Their insights from access to the latest data supports sound recommendations. For instance, they can prioritize the highest value projects for the business and put the right resources on them at the right time.<\/p>\n<p>As focus shifts to creating business value, the PMO\u2019s approach to execution must shift as well. Teams in your company are likely already using different approaches to how they can best accomplish work. Savvy PMOs advocate for the right work methods to deliver the desired outcome.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.planview.com\/topics\/resource-planning-essential-guide-savvy-pmo\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14343\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/planview-savvy-pmo-story_800x200.jpg\" alt=\"planview-savvy-pmo-story\" width=\"800\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/planview-savvy-pmo-story_800x200.jpg 800w, https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/planview-savvy-pmo-story_800x200-300x75.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/planview-savvy-pmo-story_800x200-768x192.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.planview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/planview-savvy-pmo-story_800x200-750x188.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Four_Adaptations_for_Evolving_into_a_Savvy_PMO\"><\/span>Four Adaptations for Evolving into a Savvy PMO<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you are looking to extend your PMO leadership to develop into a Savvy PMO, then our eBook series is for you.
