What the Briargrove Project has shown me is that in order to receive the full benefits that risk management can provide, organizations must be prepared to deal with the risks and potential downfalls. Three factors that I’ve improved during this course and project are what resources are needed, understanding of different project deliverables, and the implementation of risk management and assessment. Because of this course and the Briargrove Project, I have a better understanding of what resources I should use on projects and programs. I have a better understanding of what it takes to get a project completed successfully. For example, assigning individuals to the right tasks or positions, and the importance of team cohesion. I understand that every project is different and it entails different deliverables, important to lead-ers as the details are what will be the deciding marker of how and why a decision is made in a project.

Deliverables should be split evenly amongst all the members of the group, however as a leader, one should go above and beyond…
hierarchical breakdown of the entire work to be accomplished to attain the deliverables of the project. It describes the total scope of the project as it begins with the deliverables as stated. In most cases, the WBS breaks the work to be done into smaller sub-sections to make it easy to achieve them. The number of the stages of decompositions is usually influenced by the project size as well as how complex the project is (Demeulemeester & Herroelen, 2002). Elements of a project plan that depend…

The planning phase is the second step in the project life cycle. Kloppenborg and Tesch (2015) suggested that the planning phase is like a road map for the project that guides the project manager from the beginning to the end of the project.
