Programme and Project Management

The challange

Complex programmes and projects rarely fail on the technology.

Most of the programmes and projects I work with don't have a technical problem. They have too many moving parts, too many stakeholders each with their own agenda, and governance that is either so heavy it slows the delivery down, or so loose that no one can tell whether things are heading the right way.

The result is familiar: the budget overruns, the schedule turns into wishful thinking, and the steering committee receives status reports that flatter reality — until it can no longer be hidden. When the consequences of failure are significant — financially, operationally, or for the business's credibility — there is no room to let things slip.

My job is to create clarity where there is chaos, and direction where there is doubt. 

My approach

In practice, it comes down to six things: :

A steady hand on the tiller throughout.
