DOWNLOAD EBOOKManaging Sustainable Development Programmes is about understanding the difficulties and complexities of large change programmes and projects in both the private and public sectors. The authors' research reveals an extraordinary level of failure in these projects, the analysis of which overturns much of our traditional thinking about project delivery and governance. They turn existing theories on project management on their head, focusing instead on sustainable change and development. The message at its heart is 'don't blame the project leader' but rather look for active ownership of projects; joint knowledge management and sharing with external stakeholders that secure long-term effects.
