Making one project successful can be hard, making a portfolio of projects deliver strategic benefits is much harder. That is where project portfolio management comes in. With increasing number, complexity and interdependencies of projects, the management of project portfolios becomes a core competence of project-oriented organizations. However, project portfolio practices are hard to implement, and highly immature in most companies (BCG, 2015). How can we improve project portfolio practice? Which of the practices in project portfolio management are most suitable to my kind of organization?

Challenging the change management paradigm

A frequently cited figure is that 70% of all projects fail, presumably often due to inadequate change management. With the vast amount of well-established literature on change management, we are eager to investigate why this is the case.

We want to prove or reject some of the classic claims that exist in change management as well as our own beliefs by applying a well-proven, data-driven research methodology. This is why University of Oxford and Implement Consulting Group have joined forces to conduct a comprehensive research project on change management in IT projects.

To accomplish this, we need project managers and owners willing to use approx. 1 hour on participating in an interview and following sending background data on the specific project.
