Project mnagement

1. You are the manager of the production department, and the project manager will come from your group. This will be a first, as normally the project managers come from the marketing department. You need to assess the various people in your group and identify the person with the best skills. You will start by creating a job description for the position, focusing on the skills needed.

Post at least 5 paragraphs that list skills that are needed by the project manager for each phase in the Project Life Cycle, emphasizing the differences in skills needed between the various phases.

Next, craft a high-level job posting that identifies the responsibilities, the skills required, and the experiences needed.

2. Library Research Assignment

You are completing your project planning activities for the project you have been assigned to manage. The remaining component is the communication plan that you need to present to your project sponsor at the end of the week. Using the library, determine the necessary components of an effective project communication plan. Then write 2-paragraph description of the critical audiences that must be included in your communication plan. Next, choose 3 of those audiences, and answer the following questions for each audience:

What information must be shared with this audience?

What is the mechanism you will use for each type of information?

What is the frequency with which you must share information?

What will you do if the communications are not proving to be effective?

What technology will you use for your communication?

At what point could communication about the project become an ethical or legal issue?
