The Project Manager and the Project Team

To prepare for this Discussion, read the case study “St. Dismas Assisted Living Facility—1,” which is in your course text Project Management in Practice on pages 106-108.

By Day 4, post a comprehensive response to the following:

Is Dr. Splient a good choice to be project manager for the assisted living facility (ALF) project? If yes, explain why and support your reasoning with two examples of how Dr. Splient effectively reflects the professional competencies, the interpersonal skills, and/or the expected functional roles of a successful project manager. If no, explain why and support your reasoning with two examples of how Dr. Splient does not effectively reflect the professional competencies, the interpersonal skills, and/or the expected functional roles of a successful project manager.

 

Do you think that the project team (i.e., the ALF Project Steering Committee) assembled by Dr. Splient is a potentially effective one? Why or why not? Support your reasoning with two examples of how the assembled team either is or is not characteristic of a successful project team.

 

If you could add one other key player from the organization to the assembled project team, would you? If so, who would you add and why? If you would not add anyone else to the project team, why not?

Note: For your Week 2 Discussion, answer ONLY the course-specific questions listed above. DO NOT reference or answer any of the questions that are included in the course text as part of a numbered list at the end of the case study.
