Disruption! The PMI Netherlands Chapter in co-operation with CKC Seminars are preparing for the fifth edition on September 15th 2016 in Conference Center Spant in Bussum, the Netherlands. In this Summit we will elaborate on the interrelation between Disruption and Project Management. What is the key role of Project Management? What are the capabilities we need to develop? The lesson according to Josh Linkner, author of The Road to Reinvention is simple: "disrupt or be disrupted." This Summit is a call for action and will look at disruption from several viewpoints. There are all kinds of disruptions in every possible branch to be expected. We might be running late already in preparing ourselves. What will project management look like in the era of disruption? What practices will then be embraced as ‘good’, ‘better’ or even ‘best’? One of your current practices? Lessons you learnt and worthy to spread among the community of Project Managers? Interesting Summit Topics including but not limited to: How to incorporate a severe disruption into your project, leadership and team adaptability? What if your project is disrupted, escalated and derailed? Beyond waterfall and agile? Shifting from delivering results to delivering capabilities?
Keynote speakers We are pleased to announce the Keynote speakers:
Watch this space for more on speakers coming soon!
Why should you all come to the Summit 2016? The Summit 2016 Program Committee would like to inspire all Project Management Professionals to attend this one-of-a-kind event. “The PMI Summit is the opportunity in the Netherlands to bring researchers and practitioners in the field of project management together. Over the last couple of years the programme for the Summit has been very appealing looking towards the future of project management via learning from the past. Not only sharing best practices and learning from projects, but really looking towards what other approaches, the next practices, are necessary to deliver more successful projects. This year’s theme “Disruption” will potentially be an extremely useful trigger to further learn from experience and expect the unexpected. The programme is again a balanced mix of research and practical experience brought together in one day. Do not miss it.” Prof. Dr. H. (Hans) L.M. Bakker

I am extremely proud to have the theme of disruption as a key-driver for the PMI Summit. Project leaders are Change Managers and not to disrupt End2End in the development cycle of a project. This conference has great presenters who throughout the project life cycle demonstrate how to get in control of projects and create transparency and predictability by being disruptive.” Dr. ir. R.

Chapter meetings news Q4 October 11th 2016 - Optimize Your World! @ORTEC Big data and Analytics are game changers during this period of digital transformation that companies go through. Data scientists are the source of new value to organizations and bringing optimization. We will be at the ORTEC premises for a learning experience. ORTEC is a company which operated in this area for 35 years and will share their knowledge and approach for the first time with a PMI audience. As a company they focus on tactic and strategic decision support tools. Hence they fit perfectly on our Talent Triangle at ‘Strategic & Business management expertise. In addition, Ger van de Geld will explain about the Chapter’s contribution and involvement with the PMI Education Foundation. This ties in nicely with the Analytics’ Academy which ORTEC founded with the University of Amsterdam. November 16th 2016 - Telecom & Risk Management Risk management is both an exciting and boring aspect of Project Management. Are you in a transformation PMO? Are you managing a portfolio of projects? Key is that you understand the risks and how to qualify them and make them manageable. How do key players in the Telecom sector this and how can we be supported? At an exciting location yet to be disclosed either in western or southern part of the Netherlands we will have an evening to remember in which we combine PPM, Telecom and a tool. This covers the technical project management in the Talent Triangle. To make it truly stick we combine it with a kickoff of the Chapter’s Diversity & Inclusion Local Interest Work Group (LIWG). December 14th 2016 - Tendering for large projects: Value? To close of the year, we will have an event on the triangle side of Strategic & Business Management. BUILDING TOGETHER It is our conviction that, by stacking knowledge and competencies, we can make a fundamental contribution to your goal and the society in which we live. We do so by focusing on the relationship in our contacts, by taking a result-oriented approach to projects and by operating in a socially responsible manner. Who would this have to be in his or her organization’s mission? At an exciting location yet to be disclosed either in southern or western part of the Netherlands we will have a practical experience on strategy and the business to materialize. Top

Business Relationship Management (BRM)
By Elaine Lincoln, Ed.D., CBAP, PMI-PBA, BRMP Business Practice Director, Global Learning Solutions, IIL Last summer I had the opportunity to attend a BRM Foundation course. I was excited to learn about this role, which is not really a new role, but a role that has in the past two years become “professionalized”, meaning by that, it has its own professional organization – The Business Relationship Management Institute (BRMI) devoted to BRM practitioners – and an interactive Body of Knowledge (BRMBOK™) that describes the role, techniques used by BRMs and the competencies needed to be an effective BRM. The BRM website is a happening place, providing a wealth of information for anyone interested in learning more about this exciting profession. One thing that surely comes through after a brief tour of their website is the degree of passion and camaraderie that exists in the BRM community. BRMs love what they do and are intent upon sharing their knowledge and advancing the art and practice of BRM capabilities in organizations across the globe. They already have over 17,000 members – enthusiasm is contagious! During the course I was introduced to BRM terminology, tools, and techniques aimed at providing a common language for understanding the role. Having been a practicing Business Analyst for many years of my career, I was struck by what I perceived as a very strong similarity between the BRM role and the work I performed as a BA. I could identify with the metaphors that were used to describe the BRM as a navigator, orchestrator and connector between the business and the provider organization. The BRM operated as an extreme advocate of the business, but without project boundaries. The basic concepts of “Business Demand”, “Provider Supply” and helping an organization to maximize business value from their investments resonated with me. They even had a Business Relationship Maturity Model to help organizations identify their current level of relationship maturity, and to raise awareness that greater benefits to the organization could result with a willingness to mature the relationship between the business and the provider by moving away from an “Order Taker” mentality (a rather derogatory term for a BA!) and striving towards strategic partnership and ultimately business convergence characterized by shared goals, risks and rewards between the business and provider. This was really cool stuff!

There is so much material to cover, but for this first letter I thought I would focus on providing an explanation of what Business Relationship Management is for those who may be new to the concept. Like I said earlier, if you’ve worked as a Business Analyst the terminology will be familiar to you. According to the BRMI, BRM is a role, a discipline, and an organizational capability. I’m going to focus on describing the BRM role and at the same time cover some basic BRM terminology.

Newsletter July/August, 2016 | www.pmi-netherlands-chapter.org | Volume 58, Issue 6
Provider Supply and Business Demand The first concept to grasp is that of basic supply and demand (sounds like Economics 101, right?). In terms of supply, think about the services that are provided within an organization, for example the services provided by your Information Technology (IT) group. IT is a supply organization or a “Provider” of services to the rest of the enterprise. The business needs (“demands”) information, and technology is the supplier of that information. The business is responsible for determining what information and capabilities they need (“demands”), and their IT partners are responsible for providing or enabling the business to leverage the best available technology. The BRM sits at the intersection between the Service Provider and the Business Partner to ensure that the business goals are supported. But that’s only where the story begins. An effective BRM does much more than simply ensure that the business goals are supported. An effective BRM contributes to the business leadership team by actively engaging with the business to discuss strategic direction and works to identify ways for the Provider to not only support, but to advance the business’ objectives. By having a deep understanding of the business partners’ goals, the BRM can “stimulate, surface and shape business demand for the Provider’s products and services and ensure that the potential business value from those products and services is captured, realized, optimized and recognized” (Source: BRMI). The BRM therefore influences overall delivery and value realization for services, projects and capabilities. Ideally, the BRM is a member of both the business and provider management teams and would typically be involved in the following: • • • • • •
Contributing to strategy and planning Identifying how products/services support/advance business objectives Helping the Solution Delivery team and other provider management leaders to assess what supply is necessary to meet demand Partnering with provider organization to ensure supply-demand alignment Monitoring business partner satisfaction Facilitating continuous improvement of business partner-provider experience
Although I used the resource provider domain of Information Technology to explain the BRM role, which also happens to be the domain with which I am most familiar from my work as a BA, it is important to note that BRM concepts apply equally to other resource provider domains such as Human Resources, Finance and Legal. Hopefully this explanation of Provider Supply and Business Demand has served to anchor your thinking around some basic BRM concepts and what the BRM role entails. If you would like to learn more about Business Relationship Management and how this capability can transform your organization, consider registering for IIL’s Business Relationship Management Professional (BRMP) course. More details are available at our website: www.iil.com. Elaine Lincoln, Ed.D., CBAP, PMI-PBA, BRMP, has been a Global Practice Director at IIL for more than 9 years. She has over 25 years of Business Analysis and Project Management experience in various industries (Fine Art Auction Houses, Financial Services, Media / Entertainment, and “Big 4” Consulting).
