Projects involving tourism property investment projects are rarely late all at once; they are late a day at a time. Stakeholders withdraw support for investment projects quietly before they withdraw it formally. The difficulty is not agreeing that this area of project and portfolio delivery matters — it is deciding what to stop doing to make room for it. The programme converts tourism property investment projects from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. Across sectors, teams that rehearse this strand of project and portfolio delivery outperform teams that only plan it. The course leaves participants able to diagnose weaknesses in investment projects before they become incidents. Exercises escalate in difficulty, ending with the ambiguous situations that make tourism property investment projects hard in practice. The content is relevant to those who own investment projects and to those who are held accountable for its results. The final session converts the week's work on the project and portfolio delivery capability into commitments with owners and dates.
