Large-scale projects are experiencing unprecedented risks and uncertainties around the world, due to internal dynamics, such as incomplete contracts, varied governance structures, long-term contractual periods, as well as external adversities, namely political, economic, legal, social, and project-specific factors.

These large-scale projects, typically involving multiple stakeholders in a specific government structure, such as public-private partnerships (PPPs), are inherently inter-organizational projects (IOPs) and are not immune to these overwhelming risks and uncertainties.

The involvement of multiple stakeholders raises the issue of heterogeneity of project participants. That is, the risks and uncertainties for projects are interwoven with varied institutional logics carried by various project stakeholders.

Large-scale projects face institutional complexity when they confront incompatible prescriptions from multiple institutional logics.

Hence, Linzhuo Wang, Ralf Müller (LinkedIn profile) argue that the design of governance systems of collaborative relationships should aim for resolving institutional complexity, which further improves organizational resilience for IOPs.

By adopting a sequential qualitative-quantitative approach, we conduct research based on empirical evidence to address the issue of resilience of IOPs under institutional complexities.

Consequently, this research broadens the perspectives of earlier studies by proposing a shift from focusing on operational conflicts to institutional conflicts and has identified a dynamic stakeholder engagement strategy toward improved resilience.

This novel perspective is better aligned with practical reality and provides a comprehensive theoretical framework of governance for improved resilience in the face of institutional complexity.

Feedback contributes to improvement, productive changes, effectiveness, clear direction, an open culture, and, ultimately, success. Yet 95% of managers are unhappy with their performance review/management system and 59% of employees polled said that performance reviews are not worth the time.

We are on a mission to change those perceptions!

Effective feedback is about support and improvement, and a high-energy, positive work environment sets a dynamic tone and culture for employees and retail customers alike.

Every step of the feedback process sends signals that the culture of your organization is changing, becoming more open and innovative.

Join Marjorie Mauldin (LinkedIn profile) and learn to:

1. Assess feedback skills and recognize the role of feedback in continual improvement
2. Create the appropriate attitude and approach for providing feedback
3. Check purposes for sharing feedback and What’s In It For Them (WIIFT)
4. Consider how cultural, gender, generational differences, and location affect the approach to giving feedback
5. Share feedback that is specific, observable, and increases the receiver’s receptiveness
6. Close the feedback exchange with a shared understanding of the next steps for improvement

Political agendas in government can be complex and varied. IT often plays a vital role in a political agenda’s success, but few of the government leaders who actually set the political agendas understand IT or its role.

Government IT leaders should not assume their senior leaders understand IT and instead should learn to articulate IT’s value by how it impacts political and mission outcomes.

Join this storytelling webinar with Gartner experts Ed Gabrys (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner Sr. Director Analyst & John Kost (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) Gartner VP Distinguished Analyst; help government CIOs and IT leaders identify the multiple languages they must grasp to gain and maintain credibility and influence beyond IT.

Discussion Topics:

• Learn the high art of effective storytelling
• Apply storytelling to different types of government leaders
• Identify what is most important to the IT story you must tell
