In order for an organization to remain successful, it must be able to fulfill its day-to-day operations without mistakes. If these demands cannot be met, a new project must be created in order to stay in business and ahead of the competition. If an organization has a problem, they can benefit from fixing it by following a formal process for identifying, selecting, initiating, and planning projects (Valacich, 2009).

Manage, review, and prioritize the project in order for the plan to stay on time and on budget.

a) I really liked this poem; I thought it was very vivid and memorable. It made me feel angry and sad for the soldiers that died and for the suffering of the other soldiers, their injuries, their trauma and the conditions they had to endure. My daughter also read this poem and it affected her in a similar way; it made her feel sad, angry and ashamed for the things that happened. (71)

My final project is a link-up from the proposal I am doing right now, so it would be a 6 month worth of work before I submit my project. Therefore, managing time and arranging tasks are important in order to have a satisfied result in the end.

Now these projects range from social media plans to cost reduction outline. Most of us had 2 projects to work on, each project was a different team with different agendas making it difficult for you to fluctuate your time. Of course at first it was just annoying and tedious for all of us to have to manage our time. However, looking back it has made me realize that by doing that our instructor has given us this challenge to show us in the real world you don’t have just one task all day. You will be multi-tasking and working with different

First, one must integrate project scheduling, calendarization, throughout the project life cycle. Calendarization of the project allows the manager to see where bottlenecks are and adjust each projects cycle so that no one project's bottleneck overlaps. Furthermore, this master plan provides for time optimization through finding feasible optimal solutions to a projects bottleneck. Second, the manager must manage up, IE the process of utilizing technology and strong relationships with their boss to report timely, accurate information and allow for any changes that may occur. A successful project manager must always keep their superior informed about their activity. Last, managing down allows for the work to be evenly distributed and tracked. Furthermore, it allows the calendarization to keep on track as the project manager keeps tabs on both internal and external sources. Thus, a successful strategy is based on successful planning, execution, and fostering strong relationships.

A successful project management will include time control and cost planning. Accompany with these two important features, and then bring out the best quality project.

My job in the project is to identify the objectives and come up with the timeline of the training session since I am very organized and time-orientated.

While projects can be similar in some instances, no two projects are ever the same. For this reason, management of projects requires the application of tools and techniques to meet the goals of the temporary endeavor. Project managers apply these tools and techniques to determine what is required for project delivery such as the list of activities to completed, the time required to complete the activities, resources needed and the various risks associated with the deliverable and efforts. A multitude of tools and techniques are employed by the project manager based on the need of the effort to organize, identify and communicate the various aspects of the project. While in contrast, the repetitive nature of operations activities

Schools, workplaces and home require schedules and structure to accomplish daily plans. Project require planning stages that will help complete tasks in an effective manner.

Project Requirement: As per project requirement as a team we need to select a project based on different criteria like timing of project, complexity, probability of success and enjoyment of team. We need to execute the project as per the project management methodology and prepare different documents during life cycle of the project starting from initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and control and closure. One of the team member has to take leadership role of project manager and guide the team during project execution. At the end of semester we need to submit a project notebook with detailed summary of project and different documents generated during project.
