A project can be defined as an endeavor with a clear start and finish, a set of defined goals and objectives and a sequence of activities. Project management is the application of techniques, tools, knowledge and skills to project activities to meet project requirements. Project management is accomplished through the application and integration of the project management processes of planning, executing, initiating, monitoring and controlling and closing. Project management is applicable to many industries and organizations. Some key industries that use project management include: telecommunication, construction, information technology, software development, banking, manufacturing, professional engineering and architecture, computers, etc. The project manager is the person responsible for accomplishing the project objectives. Managing a project includes establishing clear and achievable objectives, balancing the competing demands for quality, scope, time and cost and Identifying requirements. The real challenge for a project manager is to turn people’s anxiety about the future into confidence. Project managers need to be very skilled in the management of communications, human resources, procurement, quality, time, cost, documentation, systems integration, etc. A good project management means that turning their anxiety into confidence. The single best way to do that is to get clearer. Not getting more passionate, more analytical or more insightful. It is more of getting clearer. Project management is very important in today’s business environment when one considers the consequences of the absence of good project management or when project management is poorly applied to projects.
