Writer’s Choice

Projects are certainly learning organizations! This term, we will experience lessons learned from both our applications of project management and our team interactions during the development of our Capstone project. During a project, it is a good practice to learn from these experiences and continue to improve on the project and how we are completing it based on what is and is not working.
As a result of each two-week session, the project manager will conduct a lessons learned with the team and post a short paragraph to share what is and isn’t working related to the content of project management and the process of the team. (One of my tricks is to always phrase posted lessons learned to the positive – it is easier to share what TO DO versus what not to do). What should you as a team keep doing? Or stop doing? Or start doing? From a project management content perspective, what tools/techniques are valuable? What can be done differently?
Another benefit of this post – Throughout this term, our focus is within our specific teams and the iterative development of the Integrated Project Plan, it is also valuable to share what is working and not working (and, how we intend to improve it) with the other teams – there may be lessons we can learn from and share. Your lessons learned is open to the other teams – the intent is that the teams can share insights around the process and application of project management with each other.
(Also provide your two examples!!)

Client Consultation and Debrief

he status meeting with the client (or internal stakeholders) is intended to provide them with project updates (scope and progress). It gives the opportunity for the teams and stakeholders to make sure that the project is proceeding as expected. If there are any issues, risks, or concerns that arise, now is the time to address them. Moreover, this can establish greater trust and confidence that the project team is performing as expected. Be prepared and professional in all aspects of conducting this meeting.
It’s helpful to keep meeting minutes to distribute after the meeting for those who could not attend and/or to track “to-do” list items paired with owners of the action. One idea for structuring these minutes would be to create a template that lists the following categories across the top: Descriiption, Frequency, Method, Audience. Fill in relevant topics below each heading and list who was in attendance (and missing) from the meeting. 
create a presentation, including various team considerations to ensure your project is a success, with your solutions and recommendations for the fictitious business, based on the information in Cosmo Business Case [PDF]. Make any assumptions needed regarding the additional scope to support the time, cost, and quality areas as well as noting who is a part of your audience.

Option #1: Develop a Risk Register – Module 6: Portfolio Milestone – 410

The Project Management Institute (2017) defines the Risk Management Plan as containing some or all of the following elements:
Risk strategy
Methodology
Roles and responsibilities
Funding
Timing
Risk categories
This is outlined in both A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge and the Practice Standard for Project Risk Management.
Instructions:
For this milestone assignment, you will develop a Risk Register that will be part of your Portfolio Project.
Develop a fully exhausted risk register of the risks on your project and submit it for a grade. You will also include this as part of your final Portfolio Project in Module 8.
Your risk register should meet the following requirements:
Be 2-3-pages (600-900 words) in length, not including the cover and references pages.
Conform to the CSU Global Writing Center Links to an external site..
Cite a minimum of six outside sources to support your responses, four of which should be academic, peer-reviewed, scholarly sources in addition to the course textbook, and you should include in-text citations to support your responses. The CSU Global Library Links to an external site.is a great place to find these resources.
Refer to the Portfolio Project milestone grading rubric below for information on assignment expectations and grading.

Option #1: Five Strategies to Deal with Threats – Module 5: Critical Thinking – 410

Please take the paper I have uploaded and make some alterations. It needs to include a discussion about the impact of the different strategies for threats versus opportunities with regard to risk responses. You will briefly discuss the risk responses for both threats and opportunities. Please see some clarification below. Please also look at the References and make sure they are scholarly, peer-reviewed articles and that they are in the correct apa format. Thank you!
This assignment seems to trip students up. There are two main parts to this assignment.
Discuss, analyze, and indicate the importance of each of the five strategies for dealing with threats or opportunities. Depending on if you picked option 1 or 2, you will discuss each of the five applicable strategies and provide an example for each strategy. One format that works very well is to include an overall section briefly discussing threats or opportunities, based on what you picked, then having five subheadings for the five strategies with the discussion and example for each.
Discuss the impact of the different strategies for threats versus opportunities with regard to risk responses. You will briefly discuss the risk responses for both threats and opportunities.
Some of my past students have missed the second part. It could cost you many points and understanding of risk responses if you do not include it. An outline for this paper could look something like:
Introduction (brief overview of threats or opportunities)
Five Strategies with Examples
Escalate
Avoid (option 1) or Exploit (option 2)
Transfer (option 1) or Share (option 2)
Mitigate (option 1) or Enhance (option 2)
Accept
Risk Responses for Threats versus Opportunities
Conclusion

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have questions.

Installing a new communications network in an office building

I attached a sample template and assignment descriiption.
There needs to be 50-100 words per slide in the speaker notes.
I need a work breakdown structure (WBS) on slide 9
The topic is the building of a new communications network for a new business in their offices.
The way the professor described it you are implementing the software into a project of your choosing. I do not have any project management experience and the professor did not explain very well. I believe I will use the communication project in the later projects of the course. There are 4 more projects for this course that require setting up a ms project spreadsheet and other documents. I believe this is when I’ll use the communications project.
I would go by the attached documents and not my personal description.
