A team divided can not stand.
An organization that implements projects or a PMO without the leadership of the organization’s explicit acceptance is doomed to fail. Confusion about who leads departments or projects will cause the organization to be divided. A house divided can not stand.
Failing projects cost valuable resources.
People are called project managers for all sorts of reasons. Many times a person is selected to be a PM because of technical competence. If the PM can not lead and work within the framework of project management best practices the PM will fail costing you valuable resources.
Like picking a top coach, quarterback, or ball handler; picking and developing the Program Office Manager, Project Manager, or team member, is critical to your project’s’ success.
Virtual project teams that have members who have grown up with the social internet are most vulnerable to finding themselves leaderless. Everyone contributes democratically yet clear responsibility for the deliverables is often lacking.

Teams
Skills, processes, procedures, and rules can each be taught but poor project management can cripple your organization, cause strife, create confusion, disrupt daily activity and become downright miserable. Talented teams make the difference.
Projects are projects
Some may disagree, however; no matter the size and scope of the project, whether moving across the street or across town, developing new products, building businesses in third world countries, presenting to congress, or the UN, ALL projects are just projects and can be exciting and rewarding to create and execute…if you know how.

New tools and better insights into the minds of the managers and business leaders who depend on them to succeed are continually evolving. Be certain to understand how these developments affect your business.
