Project governance is a critical role in any project, but it is also one that often doesn't get the attention it deserves. Executives are busy, distracted and pulled in many directions at once. Getting them to focus on your project, make effective decisions, and ensure those decisions are consistent and aligned is hard. Even harder is ensuring that those decisions are made in the context of the process that you as a project manager are trying to follow.

In this presentation, Mark Mullaly outlines a series of strategies for effectively negotiating support from your sponsor and steering committee. It outlines how to approach this critical relationship at the outset in order to get the help you need, when you need it. Learn how to educate your sponsor about the support that you need. Find out how to negotiate a working relationship that is effective. Help them to make decisions in a way that helps you deliver your results. Above all, built the governance structure that you need to be successful.
