LC113. How can PMO structure blend with founder mentality for high-performing teams?
LeapCard 113 compares disciplined project management with the innovative drive of a founder's approach to leadership.
LC113: PMO Meets Founders Mentality
LeapCard 113 discusses the relationship between structured project management office (PMO) practices and the dynamic, entrepreneurial spirit of a founder's mentality. On one hand, it emphasizes the PMO's focus on high-performance organization (HPO) principles such as management, delegation, planning, and interdependence.
On the other hand, it showcases the founder's mentality, which is about leading with a strong vision, doing the right things, and enabling trust, listening autonomy, and piloting. At its core, the founder's mentality includes traits like an owner's mindset, aversion to bureaucracy, a bold mission, and an insurgent's zeal to challenge the status quo.
The card encourages a balance between the systematic approach of a PMO and the agile, innovative drive of a founder's mentality, suggesting that a blend of both can lead to high-performance teams (HPTs) that can manage well and lead effectively.
