The owner of the project is not the project manager, the PMO, or a committee. It is the individual accountable for ensuring the project delivers its intended business value. In large organizations, clear project ownership is foundational to governance, delivery discipline, and strategic alignment.

In enterprise environments, the importance of creating measurable goals cannot be overstated. Measurable goals are the foundation of effective governance, performance management, and strategic execution. They provide the clarity required to align teams, the discipline needed to allocate resources confidently, and the evidence necessary to demonstrate value to executives, auditors, and regulators.
