Information
Technology Project management

Qu 1: Which skills do you think are most important for an
information technology project manager? Can a project manager learn all of
these skills, or are some innate?

Qu 2: Is project planning needed in an Extreme
Programming (XP) project? Why or why not? A good tutorial outlining XP will be
found at:http://www.extremeprogramming.org

Qu 3 : A nonprofit organization would like
you to lead a Web site development proj足ect for them. The organization has
Internet access that includes space on a Web server, but has no experience
developing Web pages or Web sites. In addition to creating their Web site, they
would like you to train two people on their staff to do simple Web page
updates. The organization wants their Web site to include the following basic
information, as a minimum: description of the orga足nization (mission, history,
and recent events), list of services, and contact infor足mation. They want the
Web site to include graphics (photographs and other images) and have an
attractive, easy-to-use layout. Create a WBS and enter the tasks in Project or
Open Workbench. Be sure to include milestones, summary tasks and an extensive
set of subtasks. Include all dependencies. Enter realistic durations for each
task. Assume you have only four months to complete this project. Take a screen shot of the resulting Gantt chart and paste
this into a Word for Windows file – do not submit the Gantt chart.
