Program and Portfolio Management
IMHO, PMO Manager isnt technically involved in projects but its paramount for him to remain on top of projects Data i.e. project(s) schedule, deadlines approaching, Milestones missed on various projects, budget overruns and underruns.
With a good command on existing state of projects, the networking with business leaders becomes positive and productive.
On2nd priority, stakeholder management is most vital both for Projects and PMO managers.
Dealing with Difficult People and Situations.
and be knowledgeable on the core technology of the project, so as to avoid miscommunication and having the team members beating around the bush when it comes to explaining to you about a certain status.
