Addressing Project Prioritization Failure
Project prioritization often fails due to leaders struggling to focus on key initiatives amidst numerous priorities. This challenge results in project delays and a lack of alignment between business and project goals. By implementing a Portfolio Prioritization Framework that ranks projects based on criteria like ROI and strategic alignment, organizations can optimize resource utilization and reduce losses through smart decision-making.
