NEED TO ANSWER ALL TWO DISCUSSION QUESTIONS…also specify which answer goes to which discussion question
question 1
Successful project management requires a clear and approved plan, as well as fluid communication between the project team members and stakeholders. Included in these groups are the project manager, functional managers, functional employees, senior staff, and of course the customer. Project managers are responsible for all elements of the project and they must continuously balance outcomes, schedules, and resources in order to accomplish the project’s objective within the time and budget guidelines.
With this in mind and after conducting your own research on the matter, do the following in your initial post:
- Identify and discuss a successful project and an unsuccessful project with which you are familiar. (If not familiar, conduct research)
- Include what you would say distinguishes the two, both in terms of the process used to develop them and their outcomes?
Some concepts to consider as you are researching this project involve the following keywords:
- Project efficiency
- Impact on customer
- Business success, and/or future planning.
question 2
The philosophers studied in this module set the foundations for political thought. As you read the text and lecture material consider their views on the proper role of the state.
Discuss their views on the proper roles of the state and how they might compare to the US state (government) today. Do you think the philosophers would agree with the current structure of the American government? Why or why not?
