Introduction:

Digital business requirements are transforming how we measure success in the high-performance portfolio. Where we once were only customer-aware, we have now become customer-led. This means that we use customer requirements as the centre of everything our portfolio is trying to accomplish. Once we become diligent students of what our customers need, we can gain the insight to structure and execute our portfolios for the highest possible strategic alignment. Whether you are an enterprise IT PMO with internal stakeholders to empower; an external consumer business; or a professional services organization juggling new and existing client projects, your customer-focused curriculum will engender true portfolio success on every level.
