Abstract
Whatever structure is considered appropriate, the outcome of any venture in the project world will be dependent on the style and capability of the leadership more than any other issue. The management of an organization may set the objectives, but it will be the project management that takes this forward through strategy and implementation. The main challenge for any leader is to convert vision into reality.
