WHAT IS PROJECT MANAGEMENT ?

Project Management is the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to project activities to meet project requirements. PMI defines a
project as a temporary endeavour undertaken to create a unique product, service, or result.

Project management can be defined as the planning and organization of resources in order to move a specific task, event or duty toward
completion. There are many different phases, stages, and approaches that can go into managing a project.

IMPORTANCE OF MANAGEMENT :
1.It ensures what is being delivered, is right, and will deliver real value against the business opportunity.

2. It brings leadership and direction to projects.

3. It ensures there’s a proper plan for executing on strategic goals.

4. It ensures proper expectations are set around what can be delivered, by when, and for how much.

5. It ensures the quality of whatever is being delivered, consistently hits the mark.6. It ensures risks are properly managed and mitigated against to
avoid becoming issues.

7. It ensures the right people do the right things, at the right time – it ensures proper project process is followed throughout the project lifecycle.

8. It ensures a project’s progress is tracked and reported properly.

9. Project management is important because someone needs to be able to understand if everyone’s doing what they should.

10. Project management is important because it learns from the successes and failures of the past.

Without Project Management, teams and clients are exposed to chaotic management, unclear objectives, a lack of resources, unrealistic planning,
high risk, poor quality project deliverables, projects going over budget and delivered late.

Project management creates and enables happy, motivated teams who know their work matters, so do their best work. And that project
management enabled team ensures the right stuff is delivered; stuff that delivers real return on investment, and that makes happy clients.

WHAT IS PROCESS OF MANAGEMENT ?

Project management deals with a project in 6 different phases, also known as the project life cycle. The six phases are as follows:

INITIATION
Initiation is the step for checking the feasibility and measuring the worth of the project.

PLANNING:
The Planning phase involves making a blueprint for achieving the project’s objectives.

EXECUTION
The Execution phase involves the allocation of resources and making of the deliverables.

MONITORING:
The Monitoring phase involves Project Manager monitoring and controlling the working of the project.

CLOSURE :
The closure is the final stage of the project, where everything, including what went wrong and what went right all through the process is
summed up.

PROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT VS PERSONAL MANAGEMENT

There is a difference between PM [Personal management] and professional management Which is also called as

HRM [Human Resource Management]

Originally all staff related aspects as payments, staff related needs etc was handled by Personal Management and then
when companies began looking at employees as an important aspect i.e. a resource then HRM emerged as and extension of
Project report

 Personal Management deals with workforce handling more in terms of functions as - hiring people, looking at
their payments, compensation, employee welfare, so in a way Personal management includes the range of
activities that are to do with managing the workforce rather than resources - while HRM - deals with
employees more in terms a "resource" i.e. handling the Planning, Developing Motivating , Organizing of the
entire team of employees aligning employee goals with company goals.
 So HRM function is mainly concerned with ensuring the fulfilment of management/company objectives and at
the same time ensuring that the needs of the resources are taken care of. Thus HRM differs from Personal
management as it has a broader scope and objective. HRM goes beyond the administrative tasks of Personal
management and includes vision of how management would like the resources to contribute to the success of
the organisation.
 Personal management, focus of job is done on the basis of division of labour. Under Human resource
management, focus is done on the basis of group work/team work.
 In PM - the Management makes decision of rules while in HRM rules are decided collectively after considering
employee participation, environment etc.
 Under human resource management, one sees how the utilisation of the human resources of an organisation,
is done in the most efficient and effective way.
