Defining PM


I've never been too keen on the conventional definition of project management, though it is the "coin of the realm" so to speak on that point. Nonetheless, I'm more closer to the action with my definition, I think. And, so here it is mapped to the conventional definition:



My idea
Book Answer
Narrative
Initiating
Backlog
Planning
WIP, Test, V&V
Executing, Controlling
Delivery
Partial delivery
Closing
(Closing is at the very end)
Influencers and discriminators
Specific goals
Specific success criteria

Recall, I wrote about influencers and discriminators in a recent posting [resources, time, quality, cost, and scope]
