OUM-The Project Manager's Responsibilities

The Project Manager's Responsibilities

The fundamental responsibility of the project manager is to manage delivery of an agreed upon level of solution quality while planning for and controlling the "triple constraints" (scope, cost and schedule). If a project is represented as a triangle, then the project manager's responsibility is to ensure that the target level of quality is achieved while keeping the three sides of the triangle in balance.

Managing project scope, cost, schedule and quality is the primary objectives of a project manager. If any one of these components change, then the imbalance will result in the change of one or more of the other components.

프로젝트-Delivery

어떤 프로젝트던지 무엇을 하는가에 대해 고객과 눈높이를 맞추고, 종료시 무엇이 나와야 되는 가에 대한 명확한 인식을 가지고 있어야 한다. 그렇지 않으면 방향을 잃고 몸과 마음만 소진하다 프로젝트 자체는 실패에 빠질 확율이 높다. 항상 눈높이를 맞추고 같은 그림을 가지고 있는지 수시로 점검을 해야 할 것이다.

프로젝트-필요사항

첫째. 프로젝트의 비젼에 대한 공유
둘째.무엇을 하는가에 대한 명확한 인식
세째.어떻게 구현해 나갈 것인가에 대한 그림.
네째.비상시 계획(컨틴젼시 플랜)

단상

학문을 하는데는 순서가 있다. 먼저 세상을 사는 올바른 심성을 기르고 그 다음에 정치를 해야한다.
