Moral: Even in the best companies, differing views of project management are possible. Differing views also occur whether the company is project-driven or non-project-driven. Also, the views can change as the company gets reasonably more mature in project management. 1–2 Project management was originally designed for industries that have complex (as opposed to simple) tasks and that operate in an ever-changing, dynamic (as opposed to sta tic) environment. These include aerosp ace, defense, construction, computers, high technology, electrical instrumenta tion, and the like. Comp anies that have highly repetitive tasks, such as low- technology manufacturing companies, do not need formal project management but can use informal project management for activities such as capital equipment projects.

Some companies prefer to train project managers by first ro tating them through the various line organizations (say two weeks to two months each) and then assigning them as an assist ant project manager. The question, of course, is how much they can learn in such a short period of time. Promoting from within is best because the first few project managers must know the tot al organiza tion. If functional employees see promotions from within, then they feel that there are several career paths in the company. However, the new project managers must be able to divorce themsel ves from the functional organiza tion. It is often best to hire from the outside so tha t you will have a project manager who does not have any functional ties and does not owe any favors. 1–4 Functional managers would prefer to manage projects which s tay entirely Project Management Instructor’s Manual 1 Chapter 1
