That a question from subject project management.

A learning organization is basically a project intended to systematically educate, stimulate, and reward its participants in the realization of its activities. Its ultimate goal is to prepare participants for life.

Project management is basically the organized oversight of a series of activities intended to, in some way facilitate life.

Both of these are organizations, both are processes, both are hierarchical, both have a chain of command, both have written and detailed directives.

Hi … I want to choose a topic for my PHD thesis (topic) and I don’t know what to choose.
My major is in business administration and would like to choose something about project management. I need a question to try to find its answer.

For example: how motivation affects employees performance?

I need a question that is new and never been asked before about management or project management.

Hi,

I have an interesting topic for you: Navigating your way though office politics. Office politics has a huge influence on Project Managers, and if not handled properly, can certainly lead to project failure. This is an excellent topic to expand on, you can add examples, charts, theories, etc… It is also related to conflict management, but is not the same.

Do i really need to shell out hundreds and thousands of dollars to buy Project Management software? Isn’t there an easier way?

Project Management is a discipline of planning, organizing, and managing resources to bring about the successful completion of specific project goals and objectives. Projects have a specific start and end date. Time, cost and scope are important BECAUSE projects are finite. Success is determined by these factors. Successful project management is undertaken when you simplify teamwork and eliminate guess work and simultaneously complete the job on time, within the cost and also manage to broaden the scope of the project.

So you don’t need a software to do that but software always helps.

Also, software is not infinitely expensive. You can get something for as low as $20 a month and still use it to satisfy your goals. One such example is DeskAway (http://www.deskaway.com) – its extremely powerful and $250 a year. It gives you scope to manage 35 projects a month and manage tons of space. I think it can easily compete with the likes of MS Project etc.

i want to get a b/degree in project management in a university in canada.how do i apply,am a nigerian.

Try Simon Fraser University, in British Columbia.

http://www.sfu.ca/cstudies/mpprog/diploma-pm.htm

They have an advanced diploma in project management.

You can also take further courses from the Project Management Institute, found through a link at the last page:
http://www.pmi.org/Pages/default.aspx
PMI has this news on their website:

PMI’s Project Management Professional (PMP) credential program earns ISO accreditation.

They also state they have 250,000 members in 160 countries.

Connections with a top university, ISO accreditation, and members world wide tells me this is the link you want to pursue.

There are distance learning courses available here as well, when it comes time to take more training.

I am creating a presentation related to project management, and I would like to enliven it with movie clips (humorous or otherwise) relating to project managers/project management.

The battan death march is a good theme tho not a movie.

How the americans went into the jungles for the pow’s to save them only to find them terrified, naked and beaten in a cave. It wasn’t until one of the guys on the rescue team took all of his clothes off, huddled down next to the terrified pow and said, something like, "im one of you guys, come with me, you’ll be safe, we are going to get you out of here"

It was when the rescue got on the same level as the pow’s they could look in thier eyes and say lets go together.

What functions does project management software provide that you
cannot do easily using other tools such as a spreadsheet or database?

The answer is more about integration. We sell project management software called Project Administrator. By using a database you can combine issues, risks, actions, variations, budget and expenditure, documents, roles and responsibilities and even the schedule. You avoid actions attached to Word document minutes, in Excel spreadsheets and even post it notes. They are all in one database related to one project.

You can also cut and dice the information to find, for example, what action items are overdue, or what risks are still outstanding, or what diary notes relate to a certain project.

You could run a company accounts from Excel spreadsheets but you would soon have an unwieldy mass of information that may be inconsistent, and not easily give you the answers you need. Good project management software will do all the hard work for you.
