Government projects are complex and delivered under intense political and public scrutiny, often in volatile and uncertain contexts. They can be of significant scale and uniqueness. Of critical importance to the IPA is to build project delivery capability through enhancing project leadership.
The IPA has established 2 key project leadership development programmes, one of which is the Project Leadership Programme (PLP).
PLP was launched in 2015. It is aimed at leaders who hold key delivery roles in government projects.
The programme has enrolled since inception over 1000 leaders from across 30 different government departments and currently delivers up to 6 cohorts a year of between 30 – 50 participants per cohort.
The current PLP is based on three key leadership competencies: leadership of self, commercial leadership and technical project leadership. Its content combines expert academic theory with practical hands-on learning. Its format currently includes 4 residential modules, elective classes, coaching and online tools such as bespoke 360° feedback and a participant information portal.
