Training manual sample
Below are some extracts from our Project Management - Framework & Processes manual.
Fundamentals of Project Management
How can we manage something if we can’t define it?
Discussion:
· What are the key characteristics of a project?
· What makes a project different from the normal daily tasks? How is this different to business as usual (BAU)?
Projects are unique, temporary endeavours undertaken to achieve a desired outcome. Projects bring about change
Purposeful – they are fulfilling some kind of need
A way of achieving an objective or strategic goal
Temporary – have a defined start point and end point
Have a life-cycle – distinct phases which have their own challenges and characteristics
Unique – each project is unlike any other project. It may be similar to other projects; never exactly the same
Complex – many separate but connected tasks, many of them are interdependent
VUCA Environment
Volatile
Uncertain
Complex
Ambiguous
Projects (VUCA) versus BAU
Unique Repetitive
Defined start and finish On-going
Involve uncertainty Based on experience
Have a specifically assembled team Established resources
Dynamic environment Stable environment
