2024 Maturity Research Results
We are making the results for participants in the maturity assessment in 2024 available to the reader. As shown in the following figure, high-performance organizations (levels 4 and 5) present 40% more Total Success when compared to low-performance organizations (levels 1 and 2). And, mainly, high-performing organizations have a Failure Rate almost half lower than low-performing ones. Failure is linked to not achieving goals and strategies (and associated benefits) and financial and human waste that was applied to projects that did not produce the expected results. There is a significant opportunity here for those organizations in this research whose indicators point to low performance (58% of the sample). Certainly medium-performance organizations (40% of the sample) can benefit from this Evolution. Click here to see 2024 results
High Performance Organizations (Benchmark Organizations)
As shown in the following figure, benchmark companies have strong adherence to the characteristics of all dimensions. How to reach a level of excellence: there is no single rule for how to advance in each dimension. Each case is unique. An assessment must be carried out to identify the best and most appropriate tools, methodology, organizational structure, governance, etc. Click here to access the Benchmark Report.
How to create a Growth Plan
Carry out a maturity assessment and create a Growth Plan to reach a level of excellence (i.e., maturity above 4 and Total Success above 80%). The plan is created based on the list of weaknesses (or needs for improvement) obtained during the maturity assessment. The journey may occur in a few cycles, depending on the starting point. For suggestions on how to answer the maturity questionnaire, click here. The book “Maturity in Project Management” / 4th edition Brazilian-portuguese language – www.editorafalconi.com / contains rich instructions on how to assess maturity, identify weaknesses, how to put together a Growth Plan and, also, how to run the plan.
