Project Governance

Establish and operate the oversight structure for consulting engagements, ensuring clear decision-making, accountability, and stakeholder alignment throughout. For building the implementation plan itself (workstreams, phasing, business cases), see implementation-planning. This covers the full project management lifecycle: from initial governance setup through ongoing status reporting, risk management, and project closure.

Governance Structure Selection

Right-size governance to project complexity. A 3-person engagement doesn't need the same governance as a 50-person transformation.
