Project theory and project practice: one goal, two worlds.
The reality:
Before project management is truly lived in a company and the project goal achieved together, most structures sink into chaos. There is no common language; everyone knows the goal in theory, but the practical path towards it seems buried under thousands of contradictions, blame and unclear statements.
Common reasons:
Missing or imprecise reporting between delegation levels, a lack of acceptance, insufficiently or incorrectly defined processes and objectives.
The consequences:
Every year, companies lose vast sums through budget overruns, contractual penalties and delayed or abandoned projects.
Expensive, promising project-management tools are often seen as the \”universal solution\” here. Yet in a company where no binding \”project-management culture\” exists, these instruments at best provide a standardising – and at worst even an inhibiting – framework.
We professionalise people!
How successful project management is in a company depends on careful implementation. Knowing a method and having announcements from top management is not enough to expect effective project management. Only when the introduction of a project-management method handles the organisation\’s internal specifics at least as attentively as the training of employees can project management unfold its full effect.
A carefully planned and properly driven implementation is one of the most important factors in successful project management within a company.
