Embedding Sustainability in Project Portfolios: Drivers, Barriers, and Learning Mechanisms in the Extractive Sector
This webinar will share findings and insights from a newly published PMI sponsored research white paper, entitled Embedding Sustainability in Project Portfolios shows how companies can embed sustainability into project portfolio management (PPM), moving beyond compliance to make it a driver of efficiency, innovation, and stakeholder trust. Drawing on 24 in-depth interviews with senior practitioners across strategy, portfolio, and project delivery levels in major extractive firms, the study pursues two objectives. First, it identifies the main barriers and drivers that shape the integration of sustainability into PPM. Second, it examines how organizational learning mechanisms (search, knowledge creation, knowledge retention, and knowledge transfer) enable or constrain the uptake and institutionalization of sustainability across portfolios.
