Overview of Project Management

Project management is the process of planning, organizing, executing, and controlling the resources and activities required to achieve specific goals within defined constraints, such as time, cost, scope, and quality. It involves coordinating the efforts of individuals, teams, and stakeholders to deliver successful outcomes.

* Initiation: The initiation phase involves defining the objectives, scope, and purpose of the project. This includes identifying stakeholders, conducting feasibility studies, and creating a project charter or statement of work (SOW) to formalize project approval and authorization.
* Planning: The planning phase focuses on developing a roadmap or plan to guide project execution. Key activities include:
– Creating a work breakdown structure (WBS) to divide the project into manageable tasks and activities.
– Estimating resources, time, and costs required for each task.
