HOW TO DEVELOP A PROJECT MANAGEMENT PLAN: 12 STEPS TO SUCCESS (TAKEN FROM NW University)

    NWU The Project Management Institute’s 2020   Pulse of the Profession   report   reveals that 11.4 percent of business investment is wasted due to poor project performance. Today’s organizations must uncover the cause of these failures and determine what project management professionals can do to help overcome these challenges. “For decades, we’ve been trying to improve the rate of project success,” says Northeastern University assistant teaching professor  Jacques Alexis . “ Poor planning has been one of the consistent causes of failure.

Labor (a fraction of 100 million people), resource (Land, water) and capital , essentially driven from the first two, are the three most important factors required for development, and we have enough of them.  Yet, we remained at the rock bottom in the development ranking. Why?   For example, we proudly claim (rightly so) that Ethiopia is among the top tourism destinations but tourism's contribution to the country's GDP is well below the figure in neighboring Kenya. Given its history, there is no doubt that there happen to be foreigners, intellectuals, who explored the country upside down and understands it well more than the nationals think we know our country and ourselves.   There is no quest...
