Master Your Projects: Gain Strategic Insights for Optimizing Your Portfolio

In this episode, Richard Pharro, CEO of APMG International, speaks with Stephen Jenner, a globally recognised expert in benefits and portfolio management. Dubbed the “Rottweiler of Benefits Management,” Steve has built a career transforming how organisations approach project portfolios.

From his time in the UK government—where his benefits-led approach won the prestigious Civil Service Finance Award—to his work as a consultant, keynote speaker, and author, Steve has seen it all.

Steve shares candid insights on the crucial role of portfolio management in today’s complex business environment. He explains the importance of "doing the right projects, at the right time, in the right way," and why organisations often fail to prioritise effectively.

We dive deep into challenges like managing resource constraints, competing priorities, and the phenomenon of "ghost" and "zombie" projects that refuse to end.

Steve also introduces the concept of "strategic buckets" to compare seemingly incomparable projects, from IT systems to new buildings.

This conversation is packed with practical advice for anyone looking to optimise their project portfolios and align them with broader organisational strategies.

Tune in to this exciting episode for valuable insights from one of the field’s leading authorities.
