Portfolio management is more than just a set of bubble charts in a spreadsheet. Effective portfolio management requires awareness of company culture, a willingness to acknowledge motivational biases, and a real desire to change an R&D organization from the inside out. This interactive session highlights case studies illustrating what works, and what doesn’t in R&D-driven portfolio management.
Attendees are encouraged to come with ideas to share and discuss such as:
- How to foster effective R&D team conversations around opportunity value
- The appropriate level of project vetting and business case validation
- Detail without distraction: How to hit the ‘sweet spot’ for forecast complexity
- Giving executives exactly what they need to make intelligent portfolio tradeoffs
