Review Quotes:
"This book defines strategic portfolio management and its value to furthering business objectives and how it enhances an organization's agility in responding to constantly changing market needs. It provides tools and techniques to use in the portfolio management team and an awareness of the critical success factors that must be addressed and measured to know that a portfolio management activity is adding value and maintaining management support necessary for its continued existence. ... The emphasis on organizational agility, inclusion of profit/loss (P&L) leaders, and a process to periodically refresh the impact of changing strategic objectives makes this book a template for modern business."
