The client makes an industry expert available to the project. How should the project manager make use of this resource?Your essay should address how a project manager should identify, evaluate and choose from possible responses.In answering your chosen question, you should place yourself in the role of a project manager, and demonstrate your understanding of:(a) The issues faced,(b) The options available, and(c) The pros and cons of any recommendationsYou should refer to the relevant literature to justify your arguments and recommendations (and include in the bibliography those works that are important or relevant to your discussion, even if you don’t cite them).—–2. Focus – a lot of you have started to create scenarios to allow you to answer the essay question you have selected. The point of project management is that you develop generic skills (that are transferable from project to project) so the challenge is to try and address the question without needing a scenario to answer it. A scenario is only you adding colour to the assumptions you have already made, so think about your assumptions (and about what happens if those assumptions don’t apply).3. This is not intended to be an academic essay, where you do a lot of research. This is intended to be an essay where you explain what the PM does, and more importantly the logic of why! So think about what actions the PM would need to take or what information they would need to find out, and explain them in the essay. Think also about the relationship between PM and client and how it might impact the options available.—-Reference the bookAlso this readingCooke-Davies, Terry (2002) “The ‘real’ success factors on projects” International Journal of Project Management 20 (3) p.185–190you can add more sourcesComments from CustomerDiscipline: Project Management
