From transactional to transformational: Building better relationships in major projects
In this episode of the Major Projects Association podcast, Executive Director Andy Murray is joined by David Whitmore, Director at MIGSO-PCUBED, to explore the critical role of business-to-business relationships in the delivery of complex major projects. Drawing on the new research paper ‘Managing strategic relationships in inter-organisational projects’, a collaboration between MIGSO-PCUBED and University College London, Andy and David delve into what makes these relationships succeed or fail. They unpack the key distinction between transactional and strategic relationships, why neither should be viewed as inherently adversarial or collaborative, and how leaders can consciously choose and manage the right model for their context.
