The IMPACT Engine author Laura Barnard, recently ran an exclusive live webinar where she talked about how PMO professionals at all levels can go from “order takers” to trusted strategic advisors in their organisations.
In this exclusive session, she shared practical insights, real-world examples, and a behind-the-scenes look at her brand-new IMPACT Engine Practitioner course, running on the 15th-16th October.
Here are some of the key takeaways from the session:
- Why PMOs sometimes struggle to show value – and the three biggest reasons they fail to deliver strategically (plus, what you can do differently).
- The six stages of the IMPACT Engine System – and how skipping even one of them can cost you credibility in the eyes of senior leaders.
- Learning through practice – the course doesn’t just give you theory; it uses a real-world case study so you walk away knowing exactly how to apply what you’ve learned back in your own organisation.
For over a decade, Laura’s framework has helped PMOs around the world move from reactive to proactive. From being seen as back-office administrators to being respected as drivers of business outcomes. The webinar was a taste of that journey, and it left us inspired.
If you couldn’t make it on the day, or if you’d simply like to hear Laura’s insights again, you can watch the full recording below. It’s worth a replay.
The IMPACT Engine Practitioner course is coming this October, and it’s your chance to go deeper into the system with Laura as your guide. Click here to read more!
