Enterprise Efficiency:  The Art of Reducing Waste with Rally

For companies to innovate and grow, they have to intelligently budget and manage human capital. Financial governance of investment portfolios thus needs to shift: Fund people, not work.

Join Head of Clarity Product Management, Brian Nathanson, for an in-depth look at people-centric strategic portfolio management.

With Gartner claiming the 70% digital transformation failure rate is due to “the absence of a strategic portfolio management approach,” Broadcom is helping companies reimagine the PMO with new ways of working. Instead of overseeing delivery execution, the PMO needs to start tracking value realization. Best way to do that is to measure both IT and business teams with one set of metrics. Come see how you can break down silos and unify the enterprise with value streams.

Clarity: People-Centric Planning: Doing SPM the Right Way
