Everyone manages projects — even if “project manager” isn’t your official title. Whether you’re a marketer or a creative director or an IT professional, project management is essential to achieving business objectives. Project management can be defined as the actual process of creating, organizing, and executing a plan in order to meet specific goals. However, project management is much greater than its definition. It’s actually a vast subject covering a wide variety of topics. Project management is the process of steering a project from the start through its lifecycle. The main objective of project management is to complete a project within the established goals of time, budget, and quality. Projects have life cycles since they aren’t intended to last forever. A project management life cycle starts when the project is initiated and ends when the project is either completed or terminated in one way or another. Process-based project management allows project managers to create, manage, and improve projects that align with the vision, mission, and core values of a business. All project activities and objectives are designed in such a way that they contribute towards achieving the most important organizational objectives. Process-based project management includes six stages: - Defining the processes - Identifying process indicators - Measuring performance - Adjusting objectives - Planning improvements - Implementing improvements Ideal project management can increase organizational efficiencies, boost team performance, and impact the bottom line. However, we realize not everyone is a project manager by trade.
