Uplifting you organization's capability - The "How to establish guides"
Key functions and processes tend to be put in place as well as they can given the understanding and support at the time. This can result in half-baked results that continue to destroy more value than they deliver! Hence the need for our Establishing Guides — to help you understand, think through and successfully implement key project, value and governance functions and processes. What are the key dimensions? How does each element work? Why don’t ‘quick-fix’ solutions work effectively? What is involved in the implementation process? And so on. Each Guide is built around the end-to-end establishment process and is supplemented by relevant supporting materials and gives you access to further key resources in a relevant “Resource Library”. All in all, the most comprehensive level of supporting tools and materials available today. I want you to be successful, so if you have any queries, you can contact me for advice, guidance and further information.

Few business managers or executives have been trained or educated in their project or governance roles. They assume they know when allocated to a project role and hope they are effective. Really ‘hope’ is not good enough. All of the major IT disasters of the past 25 years have been overseen by otherwise highly competent business executives who did not know what they were doing in their governance roles. Project delivery and governance is more than just ‘common sense’ it requires knowing the dynamics and challenges of projects and how they can destroy or deliver value. This Guide provides your with a simple, proven framework for defining and then implementing a complete, progressive competency learning framework. It is aligned to the different management levels and accountabilities, while keeping the number of variables to be managed to a minimum. It can easily be aligned with most organization’s existing learning curricula. Price Unit Price : US$495.00 | Register Interest how to establish an effective project evaluation structure
Project evaluation and prioritisation is about ensuring you’re doing the right projects. This is the pre-requisite for success and maximized value. Yet, this is an area that most organizations still do badly resulting in millions of dollars being spent on projects that are marginal at best. Projects get approved because of effective lobbying, ‘fudged’ numbers or ‘compelling cases’ that wouldn’t survive scrutiny. The existence of a business case (even if not standard) plus a committee to evaluate and approve projects is usually as far as many organizations have got. Even pre-approval validation is often no more than ensuring ‘all the boxes have been ticked’ rather than a detailed analysis of the project’s validity. When the project evaluation structure and supporting processes are in place, the quality of project thinking, business cases and decisions increase significantly. Poor projects are self-culled (“It’ll never get through the evaluation process”). Marginal projects are evaluated to identify the value and deficiencies for management to assess. Large-scale programs are thoroughly validated to ensure they are set up for success early, preventing downstream problems. This Guide provides you with a proven structure for defining and then implementing an end-to-end project evaluation structure that culls poor proposals, passes high-value proposals and, in the process, improves the quality of all proposals submitted for approval.
