whitepaper Choosing the Wrong Portfolio of Projects2006-12-14 01:00:24 Lee Merkhofer Consulting
  There are five major reasons that organizations choose the wrong projects - biases and errors in judgment, failure to establish an effective framework for project portfolio management, lack of the right metrics for valuing projects, inability to assess and value risk, and failure to identify project portfolios on the efficient frontier. As a consequence of these shortcomings, organizations underestimate the value derived from projects; conduct too many small, low-value projects; don't kill failing projects soon enough; unknowingly take on high-risk projects; make project choices based on political considerations not in the best interest of the enterprise; and use inefficient decision-making processes that discourage trust and honesty. Methods are available for overcoming the reasons organizations choose the wrong projects.
