This week The PMO Podcast™ Featured Story presents, "Encourage Reporting of Bad News," presented by Mark Perry (about Mark), host of The PMO Podcast™. In your organization, is the reporting of bad news encouraged? How do management and the leadership team respond when they hear of problems or potential problems? Most executive teams today advocate managing by very sensible processes and metrics. To them, reporting on potential problems and what can be done about it is never a problem, but reporting surprises out of the blue definitely is.
The PMO Podcast™ Points Memo presents, “The farmer and the stone." Have you heard the story of the Farmer and the Stone? It is a simple story about how not to confront a problem. Of course, not every problem is as easily removed as the farmer’s stone. But merely ignoring a problem, or recognizing it and not doing anything about, will not make the problem go away either. So, before you settle with working around a problem, take a closer look at the problem. It might not be as hard to fix as you think.
The PMO Podcast™ Mailbag provides the eighth in a series of ten tips for setting up a PMO.
The PMO Podcast™ is sponsored by BOT International, the provider of Processes On Demand, a PMO Setup solution used by more than 1,000 companies.
