The Guardians are here to assist you on your journey to getting your initiative approved! They play a crucial role in determining whether your initiatives meet the right requisites to become reality. You can meet them at the Guardians Meeting, which takes place every Monday from 2 pm to 3:30 pm Brussels time. To secure a slot at the Guardians Meeting and present your initiative, all you have to do is contact the Portfolio Team at least one working day in advance and ask for a slot for the next meeting. Each quarter, your initiatives are reviewed with various GBU SPOCs & BSA to determine their priority. Prioritization is driven by the business, while IT provides insights into constraints and offers guidance on technical solutions.3. Want to Contribute to Our Success? | Content Block |
