Development of Project Charter as the foundation for project activities

Having established the merits of project management (PM) as a science necessary to every project in the first article in this series, lets delve deeper in the subject.

The maxim goes, ‘Well Begun is Half Done’. So is the case with any project. It's a simple principle but ignored by many. There could be many reasons, all valid and genuine, for skipping this stage, such as:

  • A stiff project deadline
  • An immediate start date immediate
  • The need to show visible efforts and tangible outputs immediately to establish credibility.

  • As planning is invisible to clients, there appears to be a lull or inactivity they observe from outside. Hence, to pacify the client, the project team often engages in a flurry of activities without complete application of mind. However, if you believe in planning, commit time and engage the client in the development of the project charter, the results will be astonishing.

    There’s a method to this that takes a 360? view.
