Course Overview
Most recovery effort on sustainability reporting projects is spent on problems that were visible early. The estimate for this part of project and portfolio delivery that nobody challenged is usually the one that fails. The material serves both public bodies and commercial organisations dealing with the practice within project and portfolio delivery. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in sustainability reporting projects rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. The programme takes participants through this part of project and portfolio delivery end to end, from framing the problem to closing it out. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what the practice within project and portfolio delivery has actually achieved. Applied research in project and portfolio delivery consistently shows that early structure around sustainability reporting projects reduces downstream rework. The version of this strand of project and portfolio delivery described in the manual and the version practised on the floor tend to diverge over time. The final session converts the week's work on this area of project and portfolio delivery into commitments with owners and dates.
