PMO Starter Workbook

Projects don't fail at the end. They fail quietly at the beginning, when nobody wrote down who decides, what done means, and how bad news travels.

The starter version of Gillybert's PMO-as-a-Service toolkit — seven lightweight instruments that give any project the structure of a professionally governed one.

Who it's for: business owners, project leads, and ops managers running important projects without a formal PMO behind them.

Inside the workbook:

• Write a one-page project charter the whole team agrees on
• Build a RACI chart with the one-Accountable rule
• Map stakeholders by power and interest
• Install a weekly status report rhythm with color discipline
• Maintain a living risk register
• Keep a decision log so decisions stay made
• Set the meeting cadence that holds it all together

You'll walk away with: a project that runs on structure, surfaces bad news early, and never gets re-litigated by people who weren't in the room.
