Directing Change: A Guide to Governance of Project Management

Over 60,000 copies of the first edition of this guide are in use internationally by boards of directors, public sector governing bodies, their advisers, academics, trainers and the next generation of senior management currently studying management and business studies.

This second edition of ‘Directing Change’ has been updated to reflect the terminology and structure of more recently published APM guidance, such as ‘Co-Directing Change’, ‘Sponsoring Change’, feedback from users and changes to regulations such as the new ‘UK Corporate Governance Code‘ which has replaced the previous ‘Combined Code’.

The increased awareness of the importance of corporate risk management, sustainable development and ethical practice is recognised.

Written by the APM Governance of Project Management Specific Interest Group, this guide will help you apply standard governance requirements to your project portfolio.
