Introduction :
It`s been said that a person with a hammer tends to see everyhing as a nail, beut good craftspeople know that there`s a tool for every job. Project management can provide a veritable Swiss army knife of tools that can prove useful in many different situations within your organization. Interest in project management as a discipline continues to grow, and the knowledge base within most organizations has grown accordingly. Project management works best when all of the parties involved in a project understand the basic tools and ractices being used. No one can afford-or would even want-to certify everyone in the organization as a project management professional. On the other hand, today`s emphasis on doing more with less makes basic project management skills a must for almost every member of your organization.
