Foundations for Project Success!

Thanks to Marc Chagall and Craiyon

Do you need to kick-off that critical ICT initiative and want to ensure project success? Are you a PM or PMO leader or project owner who’s not sure how best to fix a problem with an under-performing project? Are you an enterprise leader, directing a Digital Transformation or a complex ICT Transition or a strategic CiP program and you're questioning how to assure project performance?


A coaching program integrated with routine project performance reviews is a simple, reliable path to success.


Too often, applied emotional maturity (EQ) is missing from projects. Coaching project leaders to develop and apply emotional maturity across their teams, their workspace and their sponsorship will improve the quality and success of ICT project activity.


Advancing that digital transformation strategy or spanning the digital divide needs:

1. Leadership and vision:

  • Strong commitment from leadership: Secure buy-in and active involvement from top management to champion the digital transformation agenda and allocate necessary resources.

  • Clear and compelling vision: Develop a well-defined vision for the desired future state, articulating how digital technologies will enable business objectives or bridge the digital divide.

  • Effective communication: Communicate the vision and strategy effectively to all stakeholders, including employees, customers, and citizens, to foster understanding and alignment.

2. Infrastructure and connectivity:

  • Robust digital infrastructure: Investment in reliable and accessible connectivity, data centres, and cloud computing resources to support digital solutions and tools.

  • Digital literacy and skills development: Individuals with the skills and knowledge needed to use digital technologies effectively, through education, training programs, and public awareness campaigns.

  • Affordability and accessibility: Ensure digital tools and services are affordable and accessible to all, mitigating socioeconomic barriers and promoting inclusion.

3. Data and analytics:

  • Data-driven decision making: Leverage data and analytics to inform strategic decisions, measure progress, and identify areas for improvement in both digital transformation and digital inclusion efforts.

  • Cybersecurity and data privacy: Prioritise robust cybersecurity measures and data privacy regulations to protect individuals and businesses from online threats and ensure responsible data governance.

  • Open data and knowledge sharing: Foster collaboration and innovation by promoting open data initiatives and knowledge sharing platforms to benefit all stakeholders.

4. Innovation and agility:

  • Embrace emerging technologies: Stay informed about and explore the potential of emerging technologies like AI, IoT, and blockchain to drive further transformation and bridge the digital divide.

  • Agile and adaptable approach: Encourage a culture of innovation, experimentation, and continuous improvement to adjust strategies and solutions based on evolving needs and user feedback.

  • Partnerships and collaboration: Foster partnerships with technology companies, NGOs, and public sector bodies to leverage expertise, resources, and scale up digital transformation efforts.

5. Inclusivity and ethics:

  • Focus on inclusivity and equity: Ensure digital solutions and initiatives are designed with inclusivity in mind, catering to diverse needs and abilities and avoiding exacerbating any existing inequalities.

  • Ethics and responsible use of technology: Address ethical considerations surrounding data privacy, algorithmic bias, and the potential impact of technology on society.

  • Social impact and sustainable development: Align digital transformation goals with broader social and sustainable development objectives to create a more equitable and resilient future for all


When this will require change, then applied EQ is a vital foundation for PM processes and procedures and methods.
