Developing a Project Management Culture

by Bob Wyatt

In last week's Advisor (" What Is So Difficult About Project Management?" 22 September) we discussed the challenges project managers face when they don't have defacto authority over the resources they need. One way to mitigate these challenges is to create a project management culture -- an environment that contains a healthy respect for the time and dollars spent on a project, and where change can be managed. A project management culture cultivates a shared commitment for a successful outcome. Every hour spent counts toward the delivery of the scope of the project. And human intervention -- not tools and methodologies -- resolve project management problems.
