Managing
Projects Successfully
Project
leadership and team skills play an essential part in developing
an organization that is fit to meet the demands of the future.
Many
managers now recognise that an inconsistent approach to
project management across their organisation is undermining
their potential for success. Definitions of project terms,
leadership of projects and the management of project progress
can be interpreted differently in different departments.
This can lead to misunderstandings and stress when critical
deadlines are not met.
