The document discusses different organizational structures that can influence project management. It describes functional, projectized, and matrix structures. In a functional structure, departments are grouped by specialty and execute their own projects, but project managers have little authority. A projectized structure dedicates resources solely to projects and gives project managers full control. Matrix structures combine functional and project aspects, and can be strong (project-dominant), weak (functional-dominant), or balanced. The document emphasizes that understanding an organization's structure helps a project manager effectively navigate authority, communication, and resource allocation.

PMP Chap 13 - Project stakeholder management OverviewAnand Bobade
PMP Chap 13 - Project stakeholder management Overview
When working on a project, there are many people or organizations that are dependent on and/or are affected by the final product or output. These people are the stakeholders of a project.
Stakeholder management involves taking into consideration the different interests and values stakeholders have and addressing them during the duration of the project to ensure that all stakeholders are happy at the end.
This branch of management is important because it helps an organization to achieve its strategic objectives by involving both the external and internal environments and by creating a positive relationship with stakeholders through good management of their expectations.
Stakeholder management is also important because it helps identify positive existing relationships with stakeholders. These relationships can be converted to coalitions and partnerships, which go on to build trust and encourage collaboration among the stakeholders.

Throughout the years how teams worked has changed. There was a time when one person was responsible for all tasks, project management, business analysis, development and quality assurance and implementation. Then there was a swing to individual roles for each. Now, organizations are realizing the best approach is somewhere in between. Teams have to come together and determine what is necessary to reach their goals and determine who on the team is best to do the work.
This is easier said than done. This presentation will discuss the differences, in skills and tasks, which separate the team roles and discuss specific strategies for building a strong partnership between all team members.

Predictive life cycle
Used when product to be deliver is well understood
Sequential or overlapping phases
Scope, Time & Cost is calculated in the early in the project lifecycle
Construction Project
– Predictive life cycle
51. By: Anand Bobade (nmbobade@gmail.com)By: Anand Bobade (nmbobade@gmail.com)
Iterative & Incremental
Used when organization need to manage changing objective & scope; partial delivery is beneficial
High level vision is developed for the product; scope is elaborated one iteration at a time
Increment successively, to add to the functionality of the product
Product is developed both incrementally & iteratively
52. By: Anand Bobade (nmbobade@gmail.com)By: Anand Bobade (nmbobade@gmail.com)
Adaptive
Used in rapidly changing environment, when requirement & scope is difficult to define
It involve fixed time & cost,; Scope is broadly defined & will be refined as progresses.
Scope decomposed into the set of requirements call product backlog
Iteration are rapid(2 to 4 weeks) are fixed in time and Cost (resources).
Customer can change or re-prioritize requirements in each iteration
