Welcome to the APM 2024 event series, where we will be discussing Strategic Misrepresentation, a topic critical to project management success.

Research shows that only 0.5% of programs and projects deliver to time, cost, and benefits, with 50% of large projects failing due to strategic misrepresentation. With such a high failure rate, it's essential to understand the causes and drivers of this issue.

We held three events in 2023, to collectively understand the scale of strategic representation (widespread) and to generate ideas to tackle this.  

This event seeks to share learning from the last year of APM events and articles on the topic of strategic misrepresentation. The event will present opportunities for attendees to share good practice and express an interest in joining future development and research opportunities. 

This is a joint event between the Governance and Enabling Change groups, supporting the project data analytics taskforce principle that "all projects are data designed and data enabled."

By attending, you'll gain the following benefits:

  • Conceptualise project success problems
  • Understand strategic misrepresentation
  • Learn about the behavioural drivers of strategic misrepresentation.

We invite you to join us in developing your understanding of the leading cause of project failure and contribute to the discussion on how effective governance can help organisations utilise data and enable successful projects.

Don't miss out on this critical event!
