Is Balancing Multiple Projects with Limited
Resources important to you?
• Do you find that there are too many projects and not
enough time, money and people to get everything done?
• Is it difficult to set priorities when every project is urgent?
• Do you feel that your organization could get a lot more
done if only things were organized and planned better?
• Has your organization optimized the product portfolio for
maximum economic value?

Cost of Not Attending
select
rationalize
allocate
deploy
The cost may seem high, but consider the cost
of not attending:
 No change in pipeline and portfolio management methods
(throughput, cycle time, or profits remain the same)*
 Potential stagnation
 Potential staff burnout
 Lack of competitive insight
 Lack of tools to facilitate improvement
Estimate: The costs of these are difficult to estimate, but could easily
range in the $thousands - $millions in productivity, especially when you
consider missed opportunities and lost market share
* Be sure to consider how conferences can be a catalyst for organizational change and improvement
