Unit IV Scholarly Activity

Think of a project you have been involved with at your place of employment or a place where you one day envision

yourself working, and imagine that you were appointed the project manager for this project.

Describe the activities that you and your project team will perform in the initiating, planning, executing, controlling and

monitoring, and closing processes. In addition, describe how the PMP affects each member of the project team.

Remember all APA formatting requirements still apply. Document your sources, and remember even your textbook can be

a source.

This assignment should contain a minimum of three pages. Refer to the process model examples in the Handbook of

project-based management: Leading Strategic change in organizations textbook, Chapters 15 and 16.

DQ Question
