• Example: [4 x (4-1)]/2 = 6
Communication Methods
• Interactive – between two people
• Push – send to specific recipients
• Pull – recipient actively seeks information
Communication Management
Communication Types
• Active listening – receiver verifies correct
interpretation
• Effective listening – receiver observes visual
and vocal cues
• Feedback – sender receives feedback from
receiver
• Nonverbal - ~55% of communication (e.g.
body and facial language)
• Para-lingual – Voice characteristics
Project managers should be aware of the basics of effective
communication across the broad stakeholder community.

- 1. PMI Project Management Principles A Point of Reference (based on the 5th Edition PMBOK® Guide) By Tom Tiede
- 2. Agenda • What is PMI and the PMP? • Why PMI Project Management Principles are Useful to Know • A Few Basic PMI Definitions • Five Process Groups oInitiating o Planning o Executing oMonitoring and Controlling oClosing • Ten Knowledge Areas o Integration o Scope o Time o Cost o Quality o Human Resources o Communication o Risk o Procurement o Stakeholders • Project Management Terms, such as: oTriple Constraint oProject Charter oProject Management Plan oWork Breakdown Structure (WBS) oPredecessor Relationships o Earned Value Management o Gold Plating oResponsibilities Assignment Matrix oForming, Storming, Norming, Performing, Adjourning oCommunication Noise oRisk Probability and Impact Matrix oContract Type oStakeholder Power vs. Interest Grid • Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct oHonor oResponsibility oRespect o Fairness o Honesty This material will cover the following project management topics: 2
- 3. The Project Management Institute (PMI) is the world’s largest membership association for the advocacy of Project and Program management. •Over 400,000 current members across 180 countries •Over 600,000 PMI certification holders •Their most widely recognized certification is the PMP (Project Management Professional). The PMP credential recognizes your: o Experience, o Education, and o Competency to lead and manage projects •Earning the PMP credential requires: o A bachelor’s degree and 4,500 hours of documented project management experience, or a secondary degree and 7,500 hours of documented project management experience o 35 hours of certified project management training o Passing the certification exam •Regardless of your inclination to pursue PMP certification, PMI project management principles apply to your role as a project leader or stakeholder The purpose of this material is to share a few PMI project management principles that apply to your role as a project leader or stakeholder What is PMI and the PMP? 3
- 4. Leveraging prescribed PMI project management principles reduces the risk and impact of costly project omissions, changes, and errors. Cost of Resolving Project Omissions, Changes, or Errors (Illustrative) Why Is This Useful to Know? Project Initiation Project Planning Project Execution Project Closure The PMI approach places great emphasis on project initiation and planning when requirements are clearly defined and agreed upon and the full scope of the project is planned 4
- 5. Let’s Start with a Few PMI Definitions • PMBOK ® - the Project Management Book of Knowledge from which PMI defines terms, standards, and good practices • Portfolio – Projects, programs, and operations managed as a group to achieve strategic objectives • Program - A group of projects and program activities managed in a coordinated way • Project – a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product, service, or result • Project Management – the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to project management activities to meet project requirements • Project Manager – the person authorized by the performing organization to direct the team accountable for realizing project objectives • Project Stakeholder – includes all project team members and anyone impacted by or impacting the project • Triple Constraint – the foundation of project management is balancing scope, time, and cost. Quality is at the center of the triple constraint Portfolio Programs Projects A few basic definitions: Quality 5 Time Cost Scope
- 6. Initiating Planning Executing A process group is a logical grouping of activities, inputs, tools, techniques, and outputs required for any type of project. Monitoring & Controlling Closing Project Management Process Groups 6 Activities Key Outputs Process Groups Define a new project or new phase, identify stakeholders, and obtain authorization “Authorize the Work” Develop an integrated project management plan to attain project objectives “Plan the Work” Complete the work and satisfy project objectives “Work the Plan” Track and review project progress and performance; manage variance and change “Control the Plan” Finalize all activities and formally close the project or phase “End the Work” • Project Charter • Stakeholder Register • Project Mgt. Plans & Related Documents - Scope - Requirements - Schedule - Cost - Quality - Human Resources - Communication - Risk - Procurement - Change - Stakeholders • Project Deliverables • Work Performance Data • Team Performance Assessments • Project Communications (e.g. status reports) • Selected Suppliers & Agreements • Change Requests • Issue Log • Change Logs • Approved Change Requests • Work Performance Information • Schedule Forecasts • Cost Forecasts • Updates to Project Plan • Quality Control Measurements • Verified Deliverable • Accepted Deliverables • Final Product, Service, or Result (i.e. purpose of project) • Closed Procurement (e.g. formal signature of acceptance)
- 7. The five process groups overlap and follow a basic cycle of “plan, do, check, act” until project closure.

Integration Management - Process Activities Integration management connects all of the knowledge areas together from beginning (project initiation) to end (project closure). Develop a document that formally authorizes the project Define, prepare, coordinate and integrate all subsidiary plans into a comprehensive plan Lead and perform the work to accomplish project objectives Review all change requests, approve changes, and manage changes to deliverables and the project management plan Finalize all activities across all Process Groups to formally complete the project or phase Key: Initiating Planning Executing Monitoring & Controlling Closing Note, additional inputs, outputs, tools and techniques not depicted may apply 10
- 11. • A typical charter will identify: o Business need or justification o Scope (high level) o Objectives (such as the intended product, service, or result) o Requirements (high level) o Risks (high level) o Assumptions and constraints o Stakeholders (primary) o Timing (anticipated) o Costs (anticipated) • The charter must be signed by someone who can invest authority for the project (typically senior management or a sponsor) A project charter formally authorizes the project and the project manager to apply resources to project activities. Per PMI, without a charter, there is no project. Project Charter Project Charter 11

Cause and Effect Diagrams Fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram 2. Flowcharts Basic flow chart or GERT diagram with feedback loop 3. Checksheets Check list (e.g. pre-flight list to ensure you are "cockpit ready" before taking flight) 4. Pareto Diagrams Cumulative histogram (e.g. 80/20 rule) 5. Histograms Depiction of volume or frequency of occurrences of several events 6. Control Charts Depiction of process output over time with UCL & LCL at 3 sigma from mean 7. Scatter Diagrams Depicts pattern of results across two variables Terms Description Benchmarking Comparing actual or planned processes to comparable projects to identify best practices Design of Experiments Variable based analysis (freeze all variables but one and assess outcome) Statistical Sampling Using a % of the population and extrapolating the results within an acceptable confidence level Quality Audits Identify best practices; identify gaps; share best practices; offer assistance to improve; highlight lessons learned Process Analysis Assess process, identify root causes, alleviate root causes Inspection Examination of work product and comparison to documented standards (e.g. reviews, audits) 85/15 Rule 85% of quality relates to mgt.; 15% is worker related 80/20 Rule 80% of problems come from 20% of the issues Rule of 7 Must have 7 consecutive data points above or below mean to consider process "out of control" Mean Time Before Failure MTBF, example quality metric Mean Time to Repair MTTR, example quality metric Grade vs. Quality Not the same; you can have a lower grade product with high quality and vice versa (e.g. automobile models) Upper Control Limit UCL = 3 sigma above mean (average) Lower Control Limit LCL = 3 sigma below mean (average) Upper Specification Limit USL is customer established and can be above or below UCL Lower Specification Limit USL is customer established and can be above or below LCL
