Project leadership is about inspiring the project team to do their best from the outset. This requires a combination of verbal and written communications and a range of applied leadership skills. One of the foundational documents that helps “kick-off” the project is the Project Charter. This is a document that describes the entire project in a short, succinct and presentable document that can be shared with project staff or other stakeholders to

PROJ6000_Assessment 1 Brief_081118.Docx Page 1 of 5

commence the project in earnest. It also helps clarify the project context, the project team roles and the goals of the project.

In this assessment you will be given a project case study to use in order to develop a Project Charter. Though all students will receive the same case study, it is expected that each student will think about the project from their own perspective as an up-and-coming project manager. Use your own style based on your critical thinking of what it means for you to lead a project. That will help you formulate your unique Project Charter.

Instructions:

1.Read the case study provided by your lecturer. This will form the basis for your Project Charter, because you will assume that you are the project manager for this project.

2.After reading the case study start developing your project charter. This needs to be a 2000-word report (+/- 10%) and must use a minimum of 6 references (academic literature and industry publications. The case study is a 7th reference).

3.The Project Charter must include the following headings and be written as if you were presenting it to the project team that will build this project. You are the project manager. The contents of the Charter are:

a.Background to the project

b.Reasons for the project

c.Project objectives

d.Constraints, limitations and risks

e.Leadership structure (project manager and his or her senior aides: list the roles and explain what each does in the project. You need to cite 4 roles)
f.Project risks and their mitigation

g.Project stakeholders and how to interact with them

h.The vision of the project and the type of project team culture you wish to promote in your team

Output and Submission:

Submit your completed assessment by the end of the first week of Module 6 (Week 11) on Blackboard.
