Webinar – “Complex Project Governance: Navigating Tensions, Complexity, and Adaptive Strategies”

Register here: Webinar - "Complex Project Governance: Navigating Tensions, Complexity, and Adaptive Strategies" - International Centre for Complex Project Management (ICCPM)

This webinar presents key research insights on complex project governance, exploring the governance tensions, adaptive strategies, and multi-layered frameworks that help navigate the unique challenges of complex projects. Join us as we explore:

• Key governance challenges and tensions that impact project success.

• Innovative governance strategies that balance structure with adaptability.

• An Introduction to the Integrated and Dynamic Complexity Governance Model (IDCGM), a multi-layered governance framework designed to help organisations navigate uncertainty, manage governance tensions, and align strategic objectives in complex projects

• A case study from the South Australian Context to demonstrate the use of the model and its benefits.

• Practical tools and insights you can apply to your projects.

• An opportunity to discuss and share experience and thoughts about governance in complex projects.
