    Not Everything Needs a PMO (Ep. 32 Revisited)

    Recorded before I wrote about SERVE, and it’s worth watching alongside Wednesday’s article this week, not because they say the same thing, because they don’t. On a large-scale national initiative, we built a PMO with one clear goal: deliver the mission. Everyone knew it wasn’t permanent. It was purpose-built for a moment in time, and when that moment passed, we closed it down. That wasn’t failure. That was success. Wednesday’s article told a different kind of ending. A PMO that also closed, but not on its own terms, and not because its mission was complete. It closed because the mission had quietly stopped mattering, and nobody inside the team was watching closely enough to see it happen. Both PMOs ended. Only one of them chose to.
