“We have implemented the methodology presented in this book, and it's been very helpful to me. The book presents numerous PPM tools for project selection, project ranking, data visualization, etc., and has case study exercises that are highly practical and helpful in illustrating how the methodology and tools presented in the book can be used. It is a valuable tool for implementing portfolio management in any company in any industry!”
—Bea Swanepoel, Portfolio Manager, Anglo American plc
"Organizational Project Portfolio Management fills a gap for PPM by providing an end-to-end process and literally stringing all the concepts, tools, and techniques into a coherent, flowing whole. I believe that without this book it would have been hugely difficult to convey to students the holistic sense of the PPM discipline. I examined other books and although the PMI standard was there I did not think that any of them introduced project portfolio management in a way that this book does. As an instructor developing a PPM course, discovering this book was a life saver!"
