The goal of project management is to ensure that every project achieves the desired outcome on time and within budget. Project management includes identifying and controlling resources, measuring progress, and adjusting the plan as needed as progress is made. The CISO may serve as the project manager for some or all security projects, or the CISO may delegate others to serves as project managers.
Whether executed by the CISO or another project management professional the project must be managed and controlled through multiple phases implemented sequentially, iteratively, or concurrently. Provide a 4-5-page MS Word document identifying the purpose of each of the 5 project management phases (Initiating, Planning, Executing,
Here are the questions you will want to address at a minimum in your reflection paper:
What did you learn in this course, and how will you use that knowledge in the future (use specific examples of what you worked on during the project)
How did you use the knowledge gained in the St. Edward’s MBA program to work with your colleagues and with the client (or not as a team) to complete the deliverables
What was easy for you to do on the project, and why; what was difficulty for you to do on the project, and why
What technology did you (not another team member) utilize on the project, and how did you (not another team member) use it to complete the deliverables
How would you rate (good, blah, poor) the communication amongst your team members (including client team members), and how could the communication been improved
What do you wish you had known before starting the project (e.g. what did you leave out of the engagement letter that you wish should have been included in the letter; a better status report template, smaller team, larger team, etc.)
Using the job description or requirements of the jobs you searched, explain the skills and characteristics required for each of the following:
Identify keywords found within the job posting that represent a management skill or characteristic.
Identify keywords found within the job posting that represent a leadership skill or characteristic.
Explain what characteristics are found in a leader.
What are the traits of an effective leader?
How do these traits support you in becoming an effective leader in a management position?
Examine the relationship between personal characteristics and effective leadership.
How does an individual’s perspective influence their leadership style?
Keep the response to one page. How do you know the current status of your project? How is the current status of the project communicated to your organization’s management team? How do you ensure your clients know the project’s status? When do you introduce change or corrective action into the project based on the project’s current status? When do you decide to allow the project to continue “as is” with no changes being introduced? The answers to these question stem from the Monitoring and Controlling Process Group.
The answers to these questions seem easy on the surface. Yet, in my experience, I find that these are some of the most difficult questions faced by project managers.
In this discussion, succinctly answer the following:
1. How is Monitoring different from Controlling?
2. What role do key stakeholders plan in this process?
3. Discuss at least one Information System tool you may use to Monitor or Control, such as a PMIS, EVM, or others.
