11 Project Management is a Disciplined Activity If you are into bringing changes in your organization and you want to make a difference among your competitors, creating a project for such a new idea may be necessary. This project will entail series of actions to be undertaken so as to bring an end result of what you wanted to achieve. The project success will depend on how it is managed. Thus, project management should be in placed. Project management is defined as the act of organizing and managing resources in a disciplined way so that a project at hand would be completed within the defined scope, quality, time and cost constraints. Managing resources refers to people and money. It is a temporary activity and a one-time endeavor performed to create a product or service that is expected to bring beneficial change or value. Project management refers to new projects and not on going projects. It can also be considered as a project if and existing product or service needs to have a product development that requires study and evaluation. In project management, a project performance can be into two categories: 1 Project management processes where people within the project management team describe organize and complete the project work. 2 Product oriented processes where people within the project management specify and create the project's product. To achieve the best results of your endeavor is to have a good project management. Let your ideas come into a reality, plan and choose the best project management to handle it.

12 12 Project Management Trainee Project Management Positions For Future Leadership Project management is the process of initiating, planning, executing, monitoring, controlling, and closing of a project through applying of knowledge, skills, techniques, and tools with the intent of successfully and efficiently implementing a project and its requirements according to specifications. This is all made possible and is the responsibility of the project manager, his trainee or assistant, and his team. Trainee project management positions are equally as important as project management because this position is directly responsible for inputs and outputs of knowledge, skills, and techniques. While managing a project requires a project manager to identify the requirements of the project, establish a clear and measurable objective, and balancing the needs of scope, time, and cost, the trainee project management positions will handle some other parts of the project that may be assigned to him by the project manager. This will include the items mentioned above as well as selecting appropriate processes discussed by the group in order to achieve objectives, adapting product specifications in order to meet the requirements of the project, and then again balancing it with the requirements of the project manager in terms of cost, time and scope. Trainee project management positions will require candidates to have some experience in best practices and an ability to work on their own initiative in the event the project manager is not available especially in cases where problems need immediate resolution. They will directly be dealing with clients and will therefore have to self-motivated and confident on their experience with project management. Trainee project management positions prepare candidates for positions that will make them future leaders in their own project management.
