Strategic portfolio management trends that will define 2026

How modern PMOs are evolving to connect strategy, execution, and value.
From Team '23

Tempo Team

  • The top SPM trends shaping 2026

  • How leading PMOs are moving from static plans to continuous flow

  • What capabilities matter most and which legacy practices are holding teams back

In 2026, portfolio leaders will be asked to do more than track projects – they’ll be expected to connect strategy with execution, break down silos, and prove value across every organizational investment.

Yet research shows most organizations still rely on fragmented tools, disconnected planning cycles, and limited visibility across teams. This makes it nearly impossible to change or prioritize with confidence.

Join Tempo on Wednesday, January 28th at 11:00 am ET for a roundtable discussion featuring Lauren Smith, Rekha Raghu, Patty Land, and Katherine Gray as they explore the trends that are redefining how PMOs operate, including:

  • Why traditional portfolio planning is breaking down at scale

  • How silos quietly erode ROI, even when the “right” tools are in place

  • What high-performing PMOs are doing differently to enable flow, alignment and adaptability

This is not a product demo – it will be a practical and honest conversation about what enterprise PMOs must rethink to succeed in 2026 and beyond.
