Synopsis

Effective decision making is a key feature of successful projects. Ineffective decision making leads to project delay and failure.

Project Governance takes the reader through the logical steps required to establish a project governance framework for a project or organization. Starting with problems typical of ineffective project governance, it develops a set of principles designed to overcome these problems and builds a framework based on these principles.

This comprehensive guide explains how to populate the framework effectively, provides the accountabilities and responsibilities of the main roles, and describes how to integrate the project governance framework into the organization.
