PMO Infection

Seems to be a recurring nightmare for some people. Project Management becomes a buzz word, the buzz word becomes a desire and the desire becomes someone deciding that EVERYTHING needs to be handled by a PMP.

No, it doesn't.

No.

In the words of Mrs. Reagan, just say no. please?

I am NOT saying that Project Management is bad, it's not, it brings organization to chaos. In day to day operations, if you make something so hard to do, people will inevitably either not do something and blame the PM structure or go around the PM structure and again blame it as their rationalization.  Now with the whole movement to "cloud" computing many projects are firing up, the one that is to move your data to the cloud, use a PMP, the one to reset the nic card on server? just make it happen...

You'll learn eventually that most things are "Just make IT happen" (pronounce "IT" either way, it works)
