Overview:

“Realistically, managers of specific projects or programmes aim to manage progress towards outcomes. Given that achieving outcomes depends in part on factors beyond the direct control of a project or programme, a different approach to attribution than that traditionally used for inputs or outputs is needed. Such an outcome orientation represents a fundamentally different way of thinking about stakeholder and client relationships that requires managing for results across all layers of the organisation, with a consistent focus on partnership and collaboration.” (Asian Development Bank, 2011)

 

This programme will enable managers to plan and to monitor implementation of strategies and programmes more effectively. It reflects the latest international thinking about performance monitoring and target setting. It will help you to ensure that your organisation is maximising its potential and delivering results in a time-bound manner.
