Project management does not need to be complex or complicated to offer value to an organization. In fact, keeping it simple can be a critical factor in developing a project management competency that, over time, becomes part of the organizational culture. And a project management office can be the conduit to make it happen. The PMO director of Harvard Pilgrim Health Care shares her organization’s story.
