Abstract Feedback

Text Clarity; is not clear enough, check my comments below.

Language; Ok.

References; missing references.

The abstract describes the need to look for opportunities, however is not clear who is in charge to look for this opportunities, the abstract is more related within an organization environment than a Project/Program/Portfolio environment.

However you can investigate what is this process to validate/accept a project into a program/portfolio what will be the role of a Program/Portfolio manager in this process.

Please check again the point 5, Individual Assignment of the Course handbook and Reference Reading material for the Wiki Assignment and Project Work.

There are some parts that could be more formal and a better style could be used. I would revise the text in order to include some changes in grammar.

Spelling errors: Affect organizations as a whole and entire GROUP of stakeholders might be in favor or against taking it non-beneficial Each of them HAS different interests that might differ and contradict from the others. THESE steps are carried out by different people according to in which level the opportunity is. It is carried out by the ?¿adecuad?¿ team at the ?¿adecuad?¿ step as not all opportunities are the same (see types of opportunities)
