Released yesterday, our new publication, Project Management as a Service: Building a Partnership, showcases an aspect of PMaaS that doesn’t get enough attention: the potential for the relationships that are built between the consulting project managers and in-house personnel to raise the skill and knowledge levels throughout the organization.
When it comes to project management practice, learning takes many forms. Among the most powerful of knowledge transfer systems is mentorship. Combining the age-old learning method of apprenticeship—student working side by side with a master—with expert project management skills, plus Emotional Intelligence, the resources staffed using PM Solutions PMaaS model are capable of raising the skill levels, practical understanding and value delivery outcomes of the organizations they partner with.
It has long been known that outside experts have this effect on the organizations that contract them. PMaaS just focuses that effect on the projects and programs where continuous learning is of most value.
Speaking of continuous learning: stay tuned for a new research brief on the organizational performance effect of PMaaS, as well as a new white paper on the topic, coming out soon. We’ll also be exploring PMaaS in our 2024 research study, launching this month. To participate in our research, sign up here to receive alerts.
