PRESENTATION OUTLINE
My History with Project Management
Franklin Covey course
Met with project managers, decided to get certified.
Fall 2015 - started reading the PMBOK guide
Passed test in March, am now certified.
I see how this evolves into many aspects of libraries

Today you will learn
All the facets of project management - things to think about going forward
Mapping these to library work, even if they are not "projects" per se
Don't worry - there is no test at the end. If it seems confusing or overwhelming or unrealistic, that's ok.

Process Groups
- Initiating (kicking things off)
- Planning (planning all aspects of the project)
- Executing (doing the work)
- Monitoring and Controlling (measuring success, making changes)
- Closing (ending the project/phase, lessons learned)
All tasks associated with project management fall within one of these process groups.

Plan!
Each knowledge area has a planning component - you plan out each part of the area before breaking it down into the work, measuring, etc.

Integration
- Charter
- Project Management Plan
- Direct and Manage Work
- Monitor and Control Work
- Close Project (or phase)
this sounds similar to the process groups, but these are the actions that infiltrate into each part of project management at a high level. Thus, it integrates. It is also descriptive of the bulk of the project managers' work

Time
- Activities
- Estimate
- Schedule!
- Control Schedule
Activities - define and sequence
Estimate resources, and durations
Control schedule - formulas for variance - how much does it variate from the baseline, from what you planned?

Quality
- What is quality?
- Assurance (work)
- Control (deliverables)
Baselines - Scope, Time, Cost (budget) - measuring against these
How close does the project fulfill the requirements?
Performing quality assurance is about the work, NOT the deliverables!
