WEBINAR | Driving Change That Lasts: A PMO Technology Story
8 Jul @ 12:00 pm - 12:45 pm BST
About this webinar
Technology alone doesn’t transform delivery. People do. In this session, we explore what it really takes to successfully deploy project and portfolio management technology while keeping people, behaviours, and adoption firmly at the centre.
Joined by guest speaker Kerry Marriott from the Crown Estate, this session brings a real-world perspective on implementing Wellingtone Accelerator+ and enabling teams through meaningful change. Kerry will share her experience of balancing technology rollout with practical change management, highlighting what worked, what didn’t, and how to create lasting adoption across delivery teams.
Expect honest insights, practical lessons, and a clear view of how organisations can move beyond “tool deployment” to true transformation, where technology supports the way people actually work, not the other way around.
What will you learn?
Why technology deployments fail without a focus on people and adoption
The Crown Estate’s journey implementing Accelerator+
