520    Today, large organizations often deploy PMOs as multiple 
       entities with different mandates, functions, and 
       characteristics. Past research efforts have focused almost
       exclusively on single PMOs. Governance and Communities of 
       PMOs breaks this mold by means of a report of 
       international research with a multi-disciplinary approach 
       that integrates the foundations of project management with
       social geography and innovation. This report offers a 
       comprehensive survey and discussion of the theory 
       surrounding multiple PMOs. The authors suggest three 
       paradigms: islands, networks, and communities. The 
       Communities of Practice is the newest and most different 
       of the three paradigms, characterized by opportunities and
       hurdles in current management contexts.
