Foundations of Project Management
Completing projects successfully, on
time, and within budget is a major organizational problem
today. Careful planning and control can help companies
ensure product and service quality, reduce costs, and
compete in today’s rapidly changing environment.
Project Planning
Too often, individuals begin complex
projects without thorough planning. The results of this lack
of forethought can be missed tasks, double work,
interpersonal conflict, and ever changing deadlines.
Risk
Management
Regardless of the size of a project,
there are always risks that must be considered. It is
therefore important to plan for, identify, analyze, and
control these risks, to increase the likelihood of a
successful project.

An
Executive Overview of Project Management
Often executives
and senior managers are the primary leaders of projects. To
enhance their credibility and contribution to the success of
projects, these individuals need to know the language,
processes, and basic tools of project management.
The
Executive's Role in Project Management
Senior management plays a key part in
the successful completion of projects within an
organization. It is important that these individuals have a
clear understanding of their personal role and
responsibilities in the creation of a successful Project
Management culture.
ROI
(Return on Investment) for Projects
Every
project produces a unique product or service.
However, it is important that the question,
“What is the financial value of producing that
product or service?” be asked. To answer the
question, individuals need the tools to allow
them to measure the financial benefit of
implementing the result of a project.
