Description
Summary:"There is a prominent lack of literature applying the theoretical concepts of good project governance to those who benefit most from these insights: policy and industry practitioners. This book aims to address this gap by bringing recent research and understanding on the governance of projects into the world of those practitioners responsible for the delivery of major physical assets funded by government investment. The book brings together contributions covering key concepts in project governance, alongside examples of governance models from several countries, to address the challenge of the disconnect between policy and its delivery. By combining empirical data and theoretical studies with this global outlook, the book highlights new knowledge, understanding and know-how on making rigorous decisions in the governance of major public projects, to help governments and their responsible bodies obtain oversight and control of their portfolios through effective project governance mechanisms"--
