The 5 Steps to Doubling ROI
Six short videos to put the five disciplines into practice and double portfolio ROI.
Introduction — Why ROI falls short (2:15)
ROI promises often fail to materialise. This introduction highlights the common leaks — pet projects, overload, weak benefits tracking — and sets up a disciplined approach to close the gap.
Step 1 — Project prioritization (3:56)
Prioritization is the biggest lever. Moving from opinion-driven choices to structured, strategy-led decisions eliminates pet projects and surfaces the true winners.
Step 2 — Portfolio rebalancing (6:59)
Balance investments across categories like KTLO, risk reduction, growth, and innovation. Rebalancing shifts resources from low-value to high-leverage work and ensures the portfolio matches strategy.
Step 3 — Increase project flow (8:59)
Too much work-in-progress slows delivery and hides problems. Limiting WIP reduces overload and multitasking, improves throughput, and accelerates realised benefits.
Step 4 — Project Staggering (6:13)
AI-powered optimization reveals the best portfolio mix under real constraints. It surfaces trade-offs, shows the “efficient frontier,” and helps leaders choose the highest-value set of projects.
Step 5 — Benefits realization (6:27)
ROI is only real when benefits are delivered. This step emphasizes tracking, adapting, and actively managing benefits as a flow — turning projected ROI into realised ROI.
