Project-management

/ˈprɑːdʒekt ˌmænɪdʒmənt/ noun

Definition

The discipline of planning, organizing, and managing resources to achieve specific goals within defined time, budget, and scope constraints. It involves coordinating tasks, teams, and deliverables from project initiation through completion.

Etymology

Modern concept emerged in the 1950s, though the practice is ancient (think pyramids). 'Project' from Latin 'proiectum' (something thrown forward) and 'management' from Italian 'maneggiare' (to handle). Formalized methodologies developed with complex engineering projects like NASA's space program.

Kelly Says

The dirty secret of project management is that most projects fail not because of bad planning, but because of scope creep—the gradual expansion of requirements without adjusting time or resources. Successful project managers are really change negotiators in disguise.
