Sponsoring a Project

The majority of projects fail - they don't satisfy the customer, are not completed on-time or are never completed, are over budget or all of the above. One of the basic reasons for these failures is a lack of project management (PM) skills at the project team level and an even greater knowledge gap at the project sponsor level. As a result, many project problems are created when there is a no project sponsor or one who doesn't fulfill his/her role as the sponsor. The Quick Guide Management Series: Sponsoring a Project will provide you with a reference to the roles, responsibilites and processes a good sponsor will perform in the seeing the project come to a successful conclusion.
