Achieving results is usually complex, but explaining results should be simpler. Results-Based Management should be a useful tool for all international development practitioners as we plan and implement the activities we need to get the results we want. But for this to work we need more common sense and plain language, and less jargon when we think about and analyse results. We may eventually have to use donor-specific RBM terms, but first we need clarity. I apply basic concepts of adult learning and the implementation of change in project design, RBM training and mentoring to help policy makers and those designing and implementing development projects identify and share their results in clear and accessible language. I have done this both for agency-wide programmes, discovering and revealing the themes running through programmes, and on individual projects, helping field workers build a workable project, and explain their results clearly to their funding agencies, and to the people they serve in the field.
