Focus on "Connection"
The first pillar, Focus on Connection, like many of the pillars has multiple levels of meaning.
​
This pillar highlights the significance of building strong relationships within the team and with external partners. By fostering a sense of community and collaboration, PM Innov8 enhances teamwork and drives collective success. Focus on Connection encourages transparent communication, mutual respect, and shared goals, which are vital for achieving innovative solutions and overcoming challenges.
​
This pillar also helps organizations start to plan out their project management processes in efficient and effective ways. When building a PMO we should always discuss the connections of the projects. Confirming the Vision and Scope and connecting this effectively within the project team leads to great successes and on-time deliveries. Diagramming the hand-offs that happen with the work that is needed to complete the scope helps to show the critical path of the project.
At PM Innov8 we help our customers with this work by providing PM best practices and consultative insights to build successful PMOs.
Keep in mind...
•A PMO should be the connector between all areas of an organization in order to create trust, synergy, and efficiency (replicatable projects, etc.)
•A central PMO allows for open communication and superb documentation: Key necessities to business longevity
•Consistency in connection lessens burnout reducing employee turnover by 2.5 times the current rate
•Connect breeds trust and lessens stress – high trust corps report a 74% reduction in daily stress for employees.
