Project Management is an integral part of businesses, reaching into most every industry, country and culture throughout the world. At its most basic level, Project Management is a set of principles, guidelines and tools used to manage work. It breaks down large units of work (i.e., feed the tribe) into more manageable sets of tasks (i.e., establish a hunting team, establish a gathering team, make and distribute tools, schedule the hunt, etc.). When these task sets are accomplished together, and in a specific order, the result is that the main unit of work is achieved. Project Management also consists of guidelines and tools used to monitor progress toward the main goal (i.e., How will a rain storm effect the scheduled hunt? Did the hunt start on time? Did we gather enough food for the week?).
