The Demand for PMO Expertise The demand for PMO expertise is on the rise across industry sectors globally. Highly skilled PMO professionals such as Analysts, Managers and Leads are in short supply. Findings from our client survey reveals that: PMO is sometimes seen as an administrative function and is often resourced with inadequately trained staff. In-house PMO staff with project management qualifications, often struggle to apply knowledge obtained from courses to a live project environment. Interim PMO staff are often hired to augment in-house PMO resource on business critical projects. Once the project is complete and interim staff depart, lack of knowledge transfer means that the previously bridged skill gap resurfaces. Our Goal Our goal is to focus our expertise on delivering high quality training, coaching and professional development programmes with a view to contribute to bridging the gap in highly skilled PMO professionals worldwide.
