This is a world of social pluralism, institutional complexity and technical uncertainty.
The completion of projects so that they come in by a certain deadline and within the budget that has been set for them ultimately determines whether a business will prosper or fail.
As our regular board blogger, Alistair Godbold, was unable to attend Septembers board meeting, Im pleased to be able to step into the breach for this month and give you an insight into the latest APM board meeting.
Good governance is the critical success factor in delivering successful outcomes.
I’m sure I’m not alone in seeing some of the projects being delivered in this time of crisis and being taken aback by the outstanding accomplishments that are helping in the fight against coronavirus.
What is project execution? Getting on with it.
Working in project management can be prone to constant change.
It has been a busy time over the last few weeks with the APM: conferences, awards, elections, forums, AGMs and board meetings.
We all want our projects to be successful and like to think they are when they have finally been completed but do we really know how to identify project success? Because unless we can identify project success there will always be that nagging doubt that maybe that last project wasn't quite as good as it could have been.
