The other constraints include; Risk and Resources 8) What defines project's success • Schedule - continuously evaluate progress, workout schedule slippages in a timely manner • Cost - Evaluate, Look Forward and Reforecast to compare with original Budget • Quality - Should be Reviewed timely(at the end of each project phase), Quality standard should be well defined and accessible • Stakeholder satisfaction • Alignment to Business Case - Did your project meet the original benefits it was set out for ? 9) What is Project Management ? • It is application of knowledge, skills, methods, experience, tools and techniques on project activities to meet the project objectives 10) Portfolio -> Programs -> Projects • Programs - Group of related projects (they provide certain benefits when managed together) • Portfolios - Group of programs and it can also include projects which are not related to any program

Thank you for sharing the video explaining project management. I learned that a project is temporary, with a clear start and end date. It's a series of tasks aimed at achieving a specific goal. Projects can be anything unique, not just construction. I also understand the difference between projects and ongoing operations. This video really helped me understand project management basics, and I'm grateful for that.

For those new to project management, it's crucial to grasp the basic ideas. The video covered all the topics nicely. I picked up several concepts, like how a project is temporary with set start and end dates, and it's always different. Understanding what makes a project successful was especially helpful in learning about project management. The clear explanations of each term made it easy to grasp. This info will really boost my project management course. Thanks for sharing it with me!

Beginners in project management must have a basic understanding of the concepts. The video explained all of the topics well. I learned many concepts such as a project being temporary as it has starting and end dates and is always unique. Your explanation about what defines a project's success is helpful to learn more about PM. It was easy to understand each concept because you explained each term clearly. My project management course will be greatly enhanced by this information. I appreciate you sharing it with me.

PM101 - Part 2 1) Who is Project Manager ? • Project Manager - person assigned by company to lead a team that is responsible for achieving the project objectives • Functional Manager - Focuses on providing management oversight for a functional or business unit • Operations Manager - Responsible for ensuring efficient business operations 2) PMI Talent Triangle (What talent does a Project Manager should have ?) • Strategic and Business Management (Business oriented skills) • Technical (Domain expertise) • Leadership (Competency in guiding and motivating) 3) Strategic and Business Management skill • Benefits management and realization • Business acumen • Business models and strutures • Competitive analysis • Customer relationship and satisfaction • Industry knowledge and standards • Legal and regulatory compliance • Market awareness and conditions • Operational functions (e.g. Finance, Marketing) • Strategic planning, analysis and alignment 4) Technical skill • Agile practices • Data gathering and modeling • Earned Value management • Governance (project, program, portfolio) • Lifecycle management (project, program, portfolio, product) • Requirements management and traceability • Risk management • Schedule management • Scope management (project, program, portfolio, product) • Time, budget and cost estimation 5) Leadership skill • Brainstorming • Coaching and mentoring • Conflict management • Emotional intelligence • Influencing • Interpersonal skills • Listening • Negotiation • Problem solving • Team building

PM101 - Part 5 1) Project Management Life Cycle • Comprises of all the stages/phases a project goes through - Initiation - Planning - Execution - Closure - Monitoring and Controlling is one such activity that is common in all the above mentioned stages 2) Types of Project Management Life Cycle • Predictive Life Cycle (aka WATERFALL model) • Iterative and Incremental Life Cycle • Adaptive Life Cycle (aka AGILE model) 3) Predictive Life Cycle • It is a Fully Plan Driven Life Cycle • The project takes place phase by phase, where work is completed on each phase before moving to the next • All requirements have to be signed off before development can begin • Outcome is basically the final product 4) Iterative and Incremental Life Cycle • The project team can start working on single set of requirements once signed off instead of waiting for entire requirements to be freezed • The outcome is a partial product that increments over time 5) Adaptive Life Cycle • It is a Change Driven Life Cycle • Just like Waterfall model, the project takes place phase by phase approach but multiple time • Each iteration will generate a shippable deliverable or a set of deliverables • The outcome could be a part of end product which can be improved in further iterations

The moment that this video started, I knew it would have value

Thank you for providing us the video that give brief explanation about project management. Learned many important things such as- 1. project is temporary and has definite start as well as end date. 2. project is a set of activities designed to accomplish a well defined unique objective. 3. projects are not only constructional but the one with a unique output is also a project. 4. learned the difference between project and operation. This video cleared my basis for project management and will definitely help me in my course. Thank You Sir.

This is a really creative and educational film. I had very no trouble understanding the concept thanks to the video's graphics. The terms used in the video are really easy to comprehend, and the voiceover is straightforward. In addition, he produced the video in a really structured way.

PM101 - Part 6 1) Project Management Processes • 5 Process Groups - Initiating - Planning - Executing - Monitoring and Controlling - Closing • 10 Knowledge Areas - Integration - Scope - Schedule - Cost - Quality - Resource - Communications - Risk - Procurement - Stakeholder • Study the Process Group - Knowledge Area matrix (PG- KA matrix)

Thankyou for making it so easy to comprehend. I have learned some basic and important concepts about project management very quickly from this video such as a project is considered as a temporary and unique plan. It has a particular start and ending; and having a definite scope and resources. It’s not a repeatable process of work. For example, the construction of the TAJ MAHAL was a project. Unless this, having a man reach on moon is also consider as a project. Projects initiated in companies due to competitive forces, business needs, economic changes, customer request, social needs, etc. There is a triple constraint triangle in project which is also known as Iron triangle of project management that refers time, scope and cost of a project. If we will decrease anything from the three aspects of triangle that will affect the quality of product. Apart from that there are also two other constraints risk and resources.

PM101 - Part 3 1) Organization structure • Appropriate organisational structure is trade-off between two parameter viz. available organisational structure to use and how to optimise them for a given organisation • Organisational structure is unique to an organization due to numerous variables to be considered 2) Some major organisational structures, • Functional organisation • Matrix organisation • Projectized organisation • Composite/Hybrid organisation 3) Functional organization • Project resources work in silos and report to their own Functional manager • Here Functional manager is the authority • Project managers being expeditors use the resources after having proper communication with Functional manager 4) Matrix organization (PM - Project manager, FM - Functional manager) • Weak - PM has certain authority and is a coordinator - FM has the higher authority - Resources report to both • Balanced - PM and FM share same level of authority - Resources report to both • Strong - PM has higher authority compared to FM - Resources report to both - Project delivery is most important 5) Projectized organisation • PM has the highest authority • Teams are organised around projects and not around functions • Resources have no home after Project completion 6) Composite/Hybrid organisation • If in the same organisation, different projects follow different organisation structures mentioned above then that is a Composite organisation • Major software companies follow Composite organisational structure

This type of valuable information is typically not offered without cost, and it's impressive that you provide it freely. Your video was highly informative, and I plan to explore your courses in the future.

Project success, as defined in this video, involves delivering value to customers while achieving project objectives effectively and efficiently. It goes beyond completing tasks on time and within budget; success means meeting customer needs and expectations. Key aspects include customer satisfaction, adaptability to changes, delivering quality outputs, effective collaboration, on-time delivery, stakeholder engagement, and continuous improvement. By emphasizing these factors, project managers can create products that satisfy customers, adapt to changes, and deliver value efficiently.Thanks to this channel i got detailed description what project success is and how it works.

Thank you sir for having this presentation for someone who has been doing some aspect of PM, this allows me a better understanding of what I have been doing to support my organization.

Wow, I’m only 11 minutes in and absolutely love your video! Your cheerful personality really shows in your voice and makes the content super fun to learn!! Thank you!

For Got to Tell one more thing .. It gave me a Clear idea on Hierarchy of - Portfolio / Programs / Project --- managements ....

I'm Wahab from OMV Oil Field Co .Contract Management Dept, actually such kind of information isn’t normally given out for free , Truly wonderful and informative video, I highly appreciate Mr. Shuaib for such supportive Lesson

This kind of information isn’t normally given out for free & here you guys are. Truly wonderful and informative video, will definitely be checking out you guys courses.

Through this video I learned a lot about project management since I am a mechanical engineer this means a lot to me I learned how to manage a project for example if I want to make a car so I can apply five processes planning, initiation, execution , monitoring and control and lastly closing my project for instance in planning what I need to buy for manufacturing , design and budget of my car then for initiation process making chasis as a frame for car followed by executing engine , steering ,and seats after that controlling and monitoring is everything going alright then when car is fully manufactured the project is said to be closed

Through this video I gleaned some significant experience about project the executives since l am a mechanical specialist this makes a big difference to me l figured out how to deal with a venture for instance to make a vehicle so I can apply five cycles arranging, commencement, execution, observing and control and finally shutting my task for example in arranging what I really want to purchase for assembling, plan and spending plan of my vehicle then for commencement process making chasis as an edge for vehicle followed by executing motor, directing, and situates after that controlling and checking is everything going okay then when vehicle is completely produced the undertaking is supposed to be shut

as a professional starting a new carreer in Project Management, this is a gold mine. thank you for sharing the knowledge.

Honestly speaking, this video was quite helpful to me because I have used this idea in a real-world setting. I saw that several of team members were facing problems to coordinate with others to work in groups which gave instructors to us. Therefore, PMIS gives ability to design. Apart from it, it also helps in task organization as well as deadline setting. Furthermore, it improvised group cohesion and increasing understandings among group members.

Going through this video. Stopped at 1:01:57 so far. I just want to say that this has been a great introduction and you explained things very clearly and concisely. I come from a Software Development/IT background, and recently wanted to change into the Project Management field. I am looking into the PMP certification at some point, but I needed a starting point. Thanks you so much for the video and I plan to finish it later tonight.

Project success is about achieving the project's objectives, satisfying stakeholders, staying within budget and timeline, maintaining high quality, and managing risks effectively.
