Openreach’s PMO: Smashing perceptions and winning awards

This special episode is guest hosted by Emma-Ruth Arnaz-Pemberton, chair of APM’s PMO Specific Interest Group, and Director of Consulting Services at Wellingtone. She’s in conversation with Catherine Lumb of Openreach. The Fibre and Network Delivery PMO at Openreach was the recipient of APM’s 2022 PMO of the Year award. The judges praised the PMO for “working on relationships and on accessible ways to being benefits” and also for “generating joy through the work itself.” Listen to hear Catherine talk about how and why the PMO was established, the transformation journey it went on, and also why PMOs have something of an image problem – and how to break the bias.
