What is the Cross-Functional Performance Management course about?
Public-sector programs often involve multiple agencies, vendors, and stakeholders, each with their own priorities and performance definitions. Without a unified approach, even well-funded initiatives stall in execution, fail audits, or underdeliver impact. Traditional project management doesn’t solve for cross-functional governance.
