Decision Log & Dependency Matrix (PowerPoint)
Two governance artefacts that always end up on the same slide in practice: the decision log and the cross-team dependency matrix.
Decisions and dependencies belong together because they fail together. A dependency slips, somebody makes a call to work around it, and six weeks later nobody can reconstruct who decided what.
This deck keeps both visible in one pack: what was decided, by whom, and what each project is still waiting on from someone else — which is usually the only thing a steering committee can genuinely unblock.
Who it is for

Questions
Is there an Excel version of the dependency tracker?
The IT Program Governance Pack contains a working dependency tracker tab; this deck is the reporting view of it.
How many dependencies can it show?
The matrix is readable up to roughly a dozen entries per slide. Beyond that, filter to the ones due in the next six weeks — which is the review discipline the dependency guide recommends anyway.
