Deputy Works Minister urges business leaders to strengthen project delivery accountability
Deputy Minister for Works, Housing and Water Resources, Gizella Tetteh-Agbotui, has urged chief executives and business leaders to strengthen project planning, leadership accountability and implementation oversight to improve the delivery of development projects. She said successful project delivery required more than initiating projects, stressing the importance of adequate preparation, clearly defined responsibilities and continuous monitoring. Speaking at the PM Executive Summit organised by the Project Management Institute (PMI), she urged institutions to identify potential risks early, track project milestones and address implementation challenges before they escalated. "One of the most important responsibilities of leadership is to establish a culture in which commitments are matched by action and performance is assessed against clear standards," she said.
