Any project, no matter the size or complexity, involves using specific skills, tools, and procedures to complete the project\u2019s goals. Project management can be broken down into five consecutive processes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The<b> Initiating<\/b> process is the beginning of the project. During this process, project stakeholders are identified and a project manager is selected. Project goals and objectives are defined and authorization is obtained to proceed with the project.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>During the <b>Planning<\/b> process, the project plan is created. The project manager and team members define the activities needed to complete the final product, service or result. They also determine what staff and resources are needed, establish the timeline and available budget for the project. The planning process is very important to the overall success of the project. Without careful planning, a project manager and project team may find it very difficult to achieve project success.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Executing<\/b> is the process of working through the project plan. The executing stage involves performing the activities outlined during the planning process.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Monitoring and Controlling<\/b> occurs throughout the entire project. Monitoring and controlling involves ensuring that all the activities in the project plan are completed on time and within budget, as well as addressing any changes necessary to successfully achieve the project goals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>In the <b>Closing<\/b> process, project goals are delivered. Final administrative work is completed and lessons learned are captured to improve future projects.
