Building and managing a schedule is one of the core processes of project management. Here are three tips you can use today when assigning resources to your schedule.

Often project managers list risk statements that are not really risks at all. It is important to understand the nature of risks and how to articulate them correctly. This makes it much easier to successfully manage the true risks. Here are two techniques that will help.

For centuries, scientists, philosophers and intelligent laymen have been concerned about creating, acquiring, and communicating knowledge and improving the re-utilization of knowledge. However, it is only in the last 15–20 years or so that a distinct field called “knowledge management” (KM) has emerged.
KM is based on the premise that, just as human beings are unable to draw on the full
potential of their brains, organizations are generally not able to fully utilize the knowledge that
they possess. Through KM, organizations seek to acquire or create potentially useful knowledge and to make it available to those who can use it at a time and place that is appropriate for them to achieve maximum effective usage in order to positively influence organizational performance.

At the completion of a major project milestone or phase, the team should take a short pause to make sure the project is on track and ready to proceed. This is a gate review and it includes taking a backward look to make sure all the things you have completed all the things you should have. This includes: 

• Deliverable approvals. 

• Budget and schedule review. 

• Review project issues. 

• Review project risks.

The Requirements Management Plan is a key document in your project management template set describes how you will elicit, analyze, document and manage the requirements of the project. This plan will cover the up-front gathering of high-level project and product requirements, as well as the more detailed product requirements that you will collect during the project lifecycle. This plan should especially focus on how you will manage changes to the requirements after they have been originally approved. Sections of the plan could include the following information:

• Project overview.

• The requirements gathering process. 

• Roles and responsibilities.

• Tools. 

• Requirements traceability. 

• Change control. 

What does it take for the project to be a success? Probably the most important aspect is having a good project manager. To be successful, a project manager should have great skills for managing the project management processes, and for managing the people on the project.

The project management processes include:​

Sounds like a riddle. Many organizations wonder how many projects can be effectively managed by one project manager at one time. The answer, perhaps surprisingly, starts with some simple math. Let's use a rule of thumb that project management typically accounts for 15% of a project’s effort hours. In other words, if a project is estimated to take 1,000 hours of effort, you should add 150 hours for project management. Some companies allocate 10% of hours to project management, while others allocate up to 20%, but 15% is a reasonable rule of thumb.

To ensure you hire the right staff for the right roles, take these steps:

Step 1: Define the Role and Responsibilities

Step 2: Find Top Candidates

Step 3: Select and Interview Candidates

Step 4: Additional Screening
