Put yourself in the role of a project manager collaborating with MTD, an events company.
Considering the difficulties and problems that MTD encounters in their projects, what insights have you gained this week that could offer assistance?
If an iterative approach were employed in organizing an event as a project, what would be the consequences? Similarly, what are the implications of adopting an agile approach? If the company sought your advice, what would you recommend?
Contribute your thoughts and ideas to the discussion.
Working with the MTD as one if the project managers and Considering the difficulties and problems that MTD encounters in their projects, i will suggest the iterative method because of it flexibility and possible development strategy that involves a cyclical process, helping for easy taking of disition when any problem is encounter. Similarly,the implications of adopting an agile approach will facilitate and allow for quick identification of problems with the project and solution is proffered, and the project is a success.
Assume I work in MTD, it’s factual that the structure of the job is very unpredictable and often comes with a significant level of uncertainty or unforeseen changes.
Therefore, to successfully sail through this hurdle of uncertainties, I would express the usage of both the linear and the iterative method of project management, thereby reducing the possible limitations available and leading to a more successful project delivery success
As a project manager, I would advice for iterative approach of project management. This is because, the method gives room for changes and flexibility. It carries everyone along and everyone including stakeholders will at some points get to know the progress and challenges of the project.
With this, i will easily detect the challengs ahead and find solution to it immediately.
Iterative method gives room for suggestions and contributions from project team.
As a project manager working with MTD, I will apply the iteractive approach because of the potential and unforeseen risks that could affect the project. Surely there will be lots of ups and downs and I believe they should be taken care of bits by bits also. Agile approach would make the risks be attended to quicker and easier than making everything complicated after loads of mistakes.
If I am working with mtd as a project manager, after what I have learnt this week I’ll certainly know that the work with MTD is an unpredictable work that can come with a lot of uncertainty and to a certain extent the work can also be done by following some set down plans that allows each phase of work to be completed before moving on to the next phase. I will adopt both linear and iterative methods as both will work out depending on the issues faced.
Both method allows for delivering of project output.
It also allows for ideas testing and deep learning about user requirements.
I’ll advise that we can collaborate both method to ease our landing point and project completion
I’ll employ the iterative method for the project due to its inherent instability, enabling flexibility in accommodating changes from vendors, sponsors, or the environment.
The agile approach facilitates swift problem identification and efficient resolution, optimizing time and resources.
As a project manager collaborating with MTD, i would use an a Hybrid approach because events are likely to change.
from the lessons of this week, i have come to undersand that the type of environment determines the approach one adopts to acheive a successful project.
in the case of working with MTD, i would adopt an iterative approach considering it is not a simple task of just supplying water. we have to consider the environment and social behaviour of the end users.
the implication of working iteratively helps the fact that at every phase of water movement to different loactions of the venue, you and the team are able to acess the situations at the receiving ends and determine which is not operating at said pressure/temperatue/volume and changes at made at those ends immediately than waiting for the completion of the project before changes are effected.
implications of an agile approach to this project are as follows:
1. immediate feedback and changes are carried out without waiting at the end of the project which might be waste of time.
2. there is room for learning developing new skills as a team member.
3. acceleartes the delivery of project outcomes.
my advice to the company would be to prepare for any unexpected feedback and be ready to solve the problems posed by that feedback.
As a project manager with MTD, I will adapt the iterative method approach because such project is unstable hence, prone to changes. Iterative method allows me as a PM to be flexible as well as adaptive to whatever changes from vendors, sponsors or environment.
Agile method gives room for quick identification of problems with the project and solution is proffered, saving time and resources.
I am working with MTD as a Project Manager by assumptions, firstly, I will have it in mind that events in the industry are mostly dynamic and unpredictable. Therefore, an iterative approach to Project Management would be highly recommended which creates room for adaptability and flexibility in the course of the Project.
Assuming I am working with MTD as a Project Manager, I would first and foremost have it at the back of my mind that events in the industry are dynamic and most times unpredictable. Therefore, an iterative approach to Project Management would be highly recommended to give room for adaptability and flexibility in the course of managing the Project.
