Ask These Questions for Each Business Unit

You have the work as in Show the Work Now . You understand the principles by which each business unit made its decisions. You know the corporate strategy and your driving force. Now it’s time to ask these questions:

  • Will this work help us implement our strategy?

  • Will this work distract us from our strategy?

Your project portfolio implements your strategy. If you don’t know your strategy, your portfolio will be random, not coherent. If you do know your strategy, you can make better decisions. If you want to change your strategy, decide which projects to fund now and later.
