When it comes to defining project management, there certainly is a "book" answer, and most would go to the PMBoK, the body of knowledge published by PMI.
Fair enough.
But, I beg to differ a bit. My idea of how PM should be defined is in the chart below.
My
idea
|
Book Answer
|
Narrative
|
Initiating
|
Backlog
|
Planning
|
WIP, Test, V&V
|
Executing, Controlling
|
Delivery
Partial delivery
|
Closing
(Closing is at the very end)
|
Influencers and discriminators
|
Specific goals
Specific success criteria
|
And what, you might ask, are "influencers and discriminators"? The executive summary is below, but read all about it here.
Influencer
|
Commentary
|
Resources
|
Money, staff, infrastructure, intellectual property or
access
Real, virtual, remote, dedicated or shared
|
Time
|
Calendar, duration, milestones, value-add points
|
Scope
|
Client deliverables; business deliverables; project debris
Agile CUD: create, update, delete agility
|
Quality
|
Fitness to use; fitness to standards; fitness to “best
value”
|
Risk
|
Risk to the client; risk to the business.
Impact and likelihood. Black swan effects
Anti-fragile
|
