Plans and drives cross-functional programs to delivery — scope, sequencing, dependencies, status, risk, and the escalations that keep work moving. Use this to run a multi-team initiative, recover a program that is slipping, build a delivery plan with dependencies, structure status reporting, or diagnose why cross-team work keeps missing dates.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# Program management Programs fail at the seams between teams, not inside them. The job is the seams. ## Set up - **One outcome, stated as a business result** with a date. Programs with several equal objectives have none. - **A named accountable owner** — one person, not a committee. The program manager drives; the owner decides. - **Scope written as inclusions and exclusions.** The exclusions do the work; unwritten exclusions return as assumptions. - **Dependencies mapped and agreed by the teams that owe them**, with dates they have actually committed to. A dependency in your plan that the owning team has not agreed to is a wish. ## Sequencing Order by dependency and risk, not by team convenience. Front-load the things that could invalidate the plan — the technical unknown, the vendor decision, the approval that might not come. Discovering in month four that the plan was impossible is the characteristic program failure. Build in slack at integration points, not at the end. End-loaded buffer gets consumed early and silently. ## Status that is worth reading Three things, every time: are we on track for the date, what changed since last time, and what …

How to install
mdr add cbrock84/headcount/program-management@sha256:38a1496a9ebc6f86The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260916.e72e404, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
