There are a lot of ways to run a project. But to run one successfully, you have to consider all aspects of the project-from scope and budget to the tasks and conversations that take place after the project is launched and executed.
Traditionally, there are 5 project management phases that make up the project life cycle:
1. Project initiation & conception
2. Project planning
3. Project execution
4. Project monitoring & control
5. Project closure
In some ways, these project management steps show what goes on behind the scenes before a project might come to a project manager’s attention. Think of this as a roadmap to help you take a project from an idea to completion.
If this process feels too rigid for you, that’s okay! Pick up the fundamentals, understand how the steps are formalized, and make decisions on how the steps can apply to you, your team, or your organization.
