A Personal Improvement Program: The Project Leader Development Process

by Andrea Gelli

For a service company that delivers quality IT applications, project management (PM) is a fundamental discipline. In fact, project management -- strictly connected with a professional quality management approach -- can become the winning factor in the highly competitive area of application development, where the cost/time/quality factors need to be managed together. Also, driven by the needs of an ever-changing business world, it is necessary to master PM to be able to change the enterprise and adapt it to the market. The instrument to achieve change is to have professional project managers and professional staff who are able to conduct change management projects with the same determination as customer projects.
