# Clarity PPM | The PPM Podcast: Grant Zemont on Compassionate Leadership

Rego Consulting just released a new podcast, [available here.](https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-ppm-podcast/id1305351151?mt=2)

![grant zemont.jpg](https://blog.regoconsulting.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog%20Images/grant%20zemont.jpg?width=299&height=299&name=grant%20zemont.jpg)

This week’s episode features an interview with Grant Zemont, Project Manager and Change Agent for Rego Consulting. Over the past twenty years, Grant's career has revolved around the project management discipline with an emphasis on the people side of the equation and empathetic leadership.

Grant recently spoke at PDMA on change management, and you can read his advice on setting up an RMO here: **[Set Up a Resource Management Office the Right Way.](https://info.regoconsulting.com/rmo-report)**

Grant is a popular speaker at **[RegoUniversity, the largest annual Clarity PPM (CA PPM) conference,](https://regouniversity.com/register/)** and when he's not teaching or running projects for large organizations, he likes to put in his earbuds and hit the drums. **[Listen to his observations on how to lead change here.](https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-ppm-podcast/id1305351151?mt=2)**

**Also in this episode:**

- Steve and Camille tackle the PPM Question of the Week with [help from a Bimodal Agile White Paper](https://info.regoconsulting.com/bimodal-agile-sn). 
  
  ***“My company has been trying to move to agile this year, but it’s been a slow process and we haven’t made a lot of headway. What are you guys seeing with other companies moving to agile? Are they successful?”***
- What are the top favorite movies of project managers? We're doing a special poll. Send us yours to [podcast@regoconsulting.com](mailto:podcast@regoconsulting.com), and be part of the survey!

- For those using Clarity PPM, we answered a fun user question. **"*Help. People keep changing my project's sub-projects! Can we hide the button, so they can't mess with the hierarchy (parent/child/grandchild)?" *** [You can find Rego's answer in the CA Community. ](https://communities.ca.com/docs/DOC-231175160) 

- RegoUniversity! Mark your calendar for **April 22-26, 2018 **and [join us at the Lansdowne Resort & Spa in Leesburg, Virginia for regoUniversity.](http://regouniversity.com) It's the largest Clarity PPM dedicated conference, and it stands way above the crowd because of Rego's commitment to keeping it all about Project and Portfolio Managment (PPM).

We’re covering all this and more in Episode 3 of The PPM Podcast, [available here.](https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-ppm-podcast/id1305351151?mt=2)
