Sponsoring Change - A Guide to the Governance Aspects of Project Sponsorship

This is an excellent guide to project and programme sponsorship. It is designed for directors and senior managers and so is reassuringly concise. It clearly explains the need to separate decision making from daily management of the project or programme, and provides useful checklists for sponsors to ensure they are asking the right questions. There is a helpful section on personal attributes of sponsors, as this enables anyone taking on this role to consider how they should behave and how they should portray themselves to stakeholders.
