Approaches of Project Management
At Magnic Digital, we have number of approaches to organizing and completing project activities, including phased, lean, iterative, and incremental. There are also several extensions to project planning, for example based on outcomes (product-based) or activities (process-based).
The success of any project depends on how well four key aspects are aligned with the contextual dynamics affecting the project; these are referred to as the four P's:
Plan: The planning and forecasting activities.
Process: The overall approach to all activities and project governance.
People: Including dynamics of how they collaborate and communicate.
Power: Lines of authority, decision-makers, organograms, policies for implementation and the like.
