50 managed to achieve impact hence the reason we do not see desirable impact in their areas of focus. Tools have been developed to assess the extent to which the components of managing for impact have been puts in place. One such tool is the managing for impact self-assessment tool developed by the Wageningen UR Centre for Development which can be used as a diagnostic and training tool (see Appendix 1). A spider web assessment tool can be used to understand the overall assessment in each area of the components (see Appendix 2). Conclusion This chapter laid the foundation for results-based M&E frameworks. The chapter started with a discussion on shared vision and how shared vision led to a common understanding of the desired future, thereby maximising the likelihood of success. The chapter describes the development and use of a theory of change that reflects the aspiration and vision of the project beneficiaries, users and implementers. The chapter argued that the theory of change is a stepping stone to impact management but not an impact management framework in its own right. To this end, the chapter ended with a discussion on how to manage projects for impact. This chapter brought out elements that are needed for impact management in projects, polices or programmes.
