Course Overview
Stakeholders withdraw support for marina and leisure facility projects quietly before they withdraw it formally. Scope on facility projects expands through small agreements made in isolation. Ambition around this area of project and portfolio delivery outruns capacity unless the sequencing is deliberate. Participants finish able to explain marina and leisure facility projects to a non-specialist audience without losing precision. The programme is built to be used, and every section of the project and portfolio delivery discipline it covers ends in something applicable. Participants test their assumptions about facility projects against scenarios designed to break weak ones. The programme works equally well for those formalising marina and leisure facility projects for the first time and those improving an existing approach. The professional literature on facility projects converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. The course ends by identifying what the participant will stop doing to make this aspect of project and portfolio delivery sustainable.
