wk 1 disscusion project managment

The discussion assignment provides a forum for discussing relevant topics for this week based on the course competencies covered.

For this assignment, make sure you post your initial response to the Discussion Area by the due date assigned.

To support your work, use your course and text readings and also use outside sources. As in all assignments, cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format.

Start reviewing and responding to the postings of your classmates as early in the week as possible. Respond to at least two of your classmates. Participate in the discussion by asking a question, providing a statement of clarification, providing a point of view with a rationale, challenging an aspect of the discussion, or indicating a relationship between two or more lines of reasoning in the discussion. Complete your participation for this assignment by the end of the week.

Selecting the Project

Using the South University Online Library, research a real world example of a project. Based on your research and the identified project, answer the following questions:

• What project have you selected? Explain. Provide reasons for selecting the project.
• What kind of organization or industry does your selected project belongs to?
• How does the project you selected fit the definition of a project?
• Is your selected project constrained by performance, cost, or schedule? Why or why not?
• To what extent, does the project portfolio process guide the strategy process in your selected project?
• In your selected project, is project management different from functional management? Why or why not? Is the role of a project manager different from that of a functional manager? Why or why not?
• Is your project independent of program management? Why or why not?

(the project you select doesnt have to be from my school library. I was thinking something about Covid in younger population)
