,Project Management Overview & Project Life Cycle
Careers using project management
Project management skills are needed in a variety of jobs:
- Business owners: The pillars of project management are delivering a
product/service within schedule, cost, scope, and quality requirements. Business
owners need planning, organizing, and scoping skills and the ability to analyze,
communicate, budget, staff, equip, implement, and deliver.
- Outsourcing services: Below is a sample status and project plan that reflects
the various tasks needed for a project. A review of finances, the importance of
communicating to stakeholders, and the importance of time, cost, schedule,
scope, and quality are reflected. Many companies may use these steps in their
business. These plans show the need for the entire team to review the various
proposals to choose the best plan.
- Creative services
- Educators: Educators provide motivation to learn a new language or showcase
new products and services. Educators use project management skills including
planning and communication.
- Engineers: Engineers use many project management skills, especially when
they must specify functional requirements. They demonstrate attention to
quality as they evaluate a design’s overall effectiveness, cost, reliability, and
safety similar to the project manager reviewing the criteria for the customer’s
acceptance of delivery of the product or service.
- Health care: These individuals actively apply risk management in providing
health care delivery of service to their clients, ensuring that they do not injure
the person they are caring for.
- Paralegal: Project management skills such as planning are used in helping
lawyers prepare for closings, hearings, trials, and corporate meetings.
Communication skills are used in preparing written reports that help attorneys
determine how cases should be handled or drafts for actions such as pleading,
filing motions, and obtaining affidavits.
- Software developers: They apply the principles of computer science and
mathematics to create, test, and evaluate software applications and systems
that make computers come alive. Software is developed in many kinds of
projects: computer games, business applications, operating systems, network
control systems, and more.
- Science technicians: Planning skills project managers use can be seen as
science technicians set up, operate, and maintain laboratory instruments;
monitor experiments; and observe, calculate, and record results.
