Enterprise Portfolio Governance

This book argues that the appropriate application of the principles and practices of corporate governance to organisational portfolio, program, and projects ('3P') governance brings about highly engaged, knowledgeable, and effective governance practices, which in turn substantially improves business case success.

The book addresses all three layers of portfolio, program, and project within an integrated governance framework, and it answers the fundamental questions everyone involved in 3P governance must address:


What governance structures (processes, functions, roles, responsibilities) need to be in place to ensure optimal portfolio investment outcomes?
How do I know our portfolios, as structured, will deliver expected benefits and value?
What should senior management be doing, acting in their portfolio governance roles, to deliver great portfolio outcomes?
The book introduces and describes a number of important frameworks and models, designed not just for their practical application, but also to be easily comprehended by senior executives not comfortable with traditional 'project speak'.

Aceasta carte sustine ca aplicarea adecvata a principiilor si practicilor guvernantei corporative in portofoliul organizational, programul si proiectele de guvernanta („3P”) determina practici de guvernanta foarte angajate, bine informate si eficiente, care la randul lor imbunatatesc substantial succesul cazurilor de afaceri. Cartea abordeaza toate cele trei straturi ale portofoliului, programului si proiectului intr-un cadru de guvernanta integrat si raspunde la intrebarile fundamentale pe care toti cei implicati in guvernanta 3P trebuie sa le abordeze: Ce structuri de guvernanta (procese, functii, roluri, responsabilitati) trebuie sa existe pentru a asigura rezultate optime ale investitiilor in portofoliu? Cum stiu ca portofoliile noastre, asa cum sunt structurate, vor oferi beneficii si valoare asteptate? Ce ar trebui sa faca conducerea superioara, actionand in rolurile lor de guvernare a portofoliului, pentru a oferi rezultate excelente ale portofoliului? Cartea introduce si descrie un numarul de cadre si modele importante, concepute nu doar pentru aplicarea lor practica, ci de asemenea, sa fie usor de inteles de catre directori superiori care nu se simt confortabil cu „vorbirea despre proiect” traditionala.
