IMPACT Project Sponsorship
Drive Business Value Faster with Effective Engagement on Projects
Program Overview
Effective sponsorship is the top predictor of project success. Sponsors who understand, embrace, and actively fulfill their role not only improve project outcomes but also drive organizational value. Here’s the truth: sponsors aren’t born — they’re developed. This means we must teach them how to keep projects accelerating toward IMPACT without getting bogged down in “doing the project work.” Instead, they focus on strategic decisions, steering the project toward faster, outcome-driven results.
