Fundamental Principles of Project Management and Tools for Project Success [P3]

Through utilization of key project management principles, project managers can build a foundation that promotes success. With success being measured by three primary factors, cost, schedule, and scope, the successful project manager must balance all three to ensure a quality product. Whether the product at the end of the project is a white paper, a new deck for your home, an apartment building, a safe escape software program for a new aircraft, or a sports arena, the project management fundamentals are the same. They may be customized and scaled appropriately; but, the fundamental principles remain constant. Topics include:

• Basic Phases of Project Management
• Project Baseline
• Project Scheduling
• Project Budget
• The 'Three-Legged Stool' Model
