The higher the worse

Experience from development of project maturity shows quite clearly that as soon as you have come roughly in place with projects it will be the ability to manage the portfolio of projects that are the problem. And when you have gotten portfolio control in place, yes, then it becomes clear that the strategy planning is bad.

You can say it in another way,:the reason that we can not see how bad managements is to operate and manage the portfolio of projects and the company is that the noise of our own lousy project management completely drowns out the problems further up.

It is widely known that it does not help much 'to do projects in the right way' (read: to be good at project management), if it is not 'the right projects' (read: if the projects are selected by the head under the arm).
