Infrastructure Megaproject Leadership, Management, Innovation and Accountability

Peeling back the layers of a transportation megaproject requires a prodigious level of dedication and perseverance. Relatively few undertake the journey and four of that small band of scholarly entrepreneurs appeared on a panel at the April 2010 Conference of the American Society for Public Administration in San Jose, California. The moderator of the panel summarizes the panel discussion and introduces the three papers that resulted. Three themes emerge: leadership matters, governance structures make a difference, and risk allocation counts.
