Work with all stakeholders, on behalf of the project

Independence from any single stakeholder, focus on overall project success, and collaboration among all participants.

Informal resolution exhausted before anything escalates, problem-solving over fault-finding, and outcomes that preserve working relationships.

Honest assessments even when they are difficult to hear, strict confidentiality as the engagement agreement provides, and direct communication about issues.

Safety over money: Worker and public safety above financial considerations, immediate escalation of safety concerns regardless of commercial implications, and no compromise of safety for schedule or budget.

Respect differing views and opinions: legitimate differences acknowledged, understanding facilitated between parties, and no side-taking in commercial or technical disputes.

Open-minded collaboration and problem-solving: a fresh perspective on each situation, creative solutions encouraged, and collaborative rather than adversarial relationships.

Every engagement carries an Executive Sponsor and the firm's review, so the Commitment is kept by a firm rather than promised by a person.

A Project Neutral® who signs these commitments still decides nothing on your project without your consent.
