Effective sponsorship can be the difference between project success and project failure, and consequently organisation success.  Establishing the role of the Project Sponsor in an organisation is integral to establishing effective PPM governance.  Specifically for the PMO professional, the workshop considers the role of the Sponsor and explores the challenges, and potential strategies and tactics to overcome them, when implementing effective Sponsorship within an organisation.
