You are working in an environment where projects are used to deliver new ideas and changes to existing ways of working.
You have little or no experience of project management, or you have taken part in projects but are now keen to understand the structure and processes associated with project management.
|
You are working on a project or change initiative, using your knowledge of current working practices to help define the requirements for the project or implement the change.
You have to plan your own work, and ensure that you report your progress along with any risks and issues to the project or change manager. Your work may be part of a programme of inter-dependent projects and you may need to align your work with these other initiatives.
|
You are responsible for defining, planning, monitoring and controlling the work of the project or change initiative. This involves risk management and change control as well as being responsible for creating the plan and delegating work to others.
You are responsible for forming and building the project or change team, defining roles and responsibilities and maintaining motivation to get the work done. Communication to the team members and upward communication to senior management is an essential part of the role.
|
You are responsible for identifying the need for change, analyzing the likely impact of the change and establishing the mechanisms for creating the change via individual projects and programmes of inter-dependent projects.
You are a senior manager with authority for establishing how this work will be achieved, including identifying and implementing appropriate methodologies and approaches in project, programme and change management.
|
You are responsible for the implementation of change across your organisation via the successful delivery of projects and programmes and of inter-dependent projects. You create the vision for the change, and for communicating how the organisation will work once the change has been completed.
You are a senior manager who has the authority to assign budget and resources to the initiatives, sponsor the initiatives and engage stakeholders in understanding and supporting the change and the projects and programmes that deliver it. The benefits realised by the change are of strategic importance to the organisation, and are the key criteria for judging your success.
