I expected that meeting about communication plan would be not long.. I thought that somebody from our group wanted to change something it should be like some remarks or some additional suggestions. So we had meeting for 2 hours!!! Because we bumped into question about hierarchy of company and responsibilities every members of one.

So general argue was about sponsor’s role . What is man contribution in project he should make  and  his level of involvement. So it was accepted that he just brought  money to project and he’ll care only about output.

Other argue was about executive’s role.  Should he be inventor or he should only care about project on high level? it should be just acceptance of starting and accepting of budget for project. So it was accepted that he would control high level of project and we don’t concentrate on who is inventor.

After finding consensus we have discussed and merged in all our communication plans . Also it was made some remark about ground rules for stakeholder , so it should be our next task….

First Step in learning PM. It was initiated work group consists of four members. One of them is PM expert and he also is chief of our group. The first stage was reading starting materials about common knowledge of project management.  The reading materials is good step for getting knowledge but without practice it is nonsense.

It was proposed to make project management documentations that cover all project cycle for some imaginary project.

It will be  the developing Insulin Assistance .

I was involved in KL project in my company like Team Leader.  Today after success finishing project I should look back and try to evaluate mistakes that took place. I think that the main mistake that was done by me I did not enough pay attention for my own role and responsibilities for this project. it was like I should fix everything and I feel that I did not only me job. That is main reason why I started to learn about project management.

The main benefits that I expect from this step to getting PM knowledge is detect my own role and resposobilities  in any project. Also I would like to study how I can manage my own time and  risks of project and of course expectations of my client.
