Endorsement for the first edition:

'This book gives the reader a non-theroretical but practical framework to develop competencies in Programme Management and, utilising this skill-set, implement change in organisations. It is equally applicable to the public and private sectors and I recommend everyone to look in the mirror and think 'this could be me!'. This book will be a useful and interesting addition to your office reference material.' - Digby Jones, Director-General, CBI
