Capability gaps & training
Predictable delivery from people who run projects next to their main job, without building a heavy PMO.
The situation
Experts in e-commerce, HR, finance, legal or SAP run projects on top of their main job. Each department works differently and good people burn out.
What it costs
- Every project is run differently
- Training does not carry over to real work
- Capability leaves when individuals leave
How we approach it
Training is built around participants' own live projects, with three to five success measures agreed at the start and coaching through reviews and risk updates. When value is visible in one department, the practice expands to the next.
