The creation of public and government policy presents a wicked problem because it tends to be highly contested, involves many different stakeholders, and yields outcomes that change and evolve over time. Developing Government Policy Capability examines the role project management plays in supporting how policy work is conducted. Using Australias controversial Tobacco Plain Packaging Act 2011 as a case study, the authors explore the question: Can project management practices contribute to improving government policy development and implementation capability? Their argumentthat project management can solve even wicked problemsis not necessarily new. As they explain, thats pretty much what project management is all about. Project managers need to clearly articulate, acknowledge, and legitimize invisible workthe bridge between what is being done and what is supposed to be done. The project management tool set and the importance of recognizing the societal dimension when planning and conducting projects can make it possible for practitioners to tackle even the most complex policy work.
