Jake shares his insights into the evolution of PMOs (Project Management Offices) and the emerging role of the Chief Project Officer (CPO) in medium-sized enterprises.

    We explore the key challenges and strategic advantages of PMOs, resource optimization, and risk management across multiple projects, and how the CPO can serve as a critical bridge between project managers and the C-suite.
