Assignment 8

 

  • Your HR project to develop a centralized model of delivering HR  services has progressed through very critical stages of the project thus  far. It is now time to present actionable, decision-making information  to project leaders. This can be best accomplished when projects have  been successfully managed, are devoid of any major risks, and have been  properly closed out and finalized.
    Write a 5–6 page paper in which you:
     
  1. Explain what it means to successfully direct and manage  project work, and identify and discuss 3–4 strategies you might use to  manage and sustain progress in your HR project. Be specific.
  2. Identify and discuss a minimum of three strategies that could  be used to address and resolve any risks within the control of the  project. Hint: See Exhibit 14.5 in the textbook. Is any one of the  strategies you selected more important than the others? Why?
  3. Describe 2–3 actions a project manager may take as they begin  to close out the project. Be sure to justify using the actions you  discuss.
  4. Review Project Management in Action: The Power of Lessons  Learned (pages 518–520 in the textbook), and provide an overview to the  project team on the significance of the information. Be specific.
