Graham Oakes' Project Reviews, Assurance and Governance is about learning from your mistakes and understanding what's really going on with your projects. In order for reviews and assurance to provide you with this information and learning, you need to perform them effectively. The author builds from his experience of running assurance and review teams for professional service firms (working for public and private sector clients) and for private sector companies. He provides a series of 'mental models' that can help reviewers, sponsors and other stakeholders set up and conduct effective reviews. These models are coupled with pragmatic advice on how to run effective project review and assurance teams, and are backed by a range of case studies.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
