Projects and Project Management works involve a team of people collaborating to contribute their diverse individual expertise toward achieving a common objective or goal. As the goal of a project is the coordination of an organization’s resources and aggregate effort of its contributors, the success of a project lies largely on the ability of its team members to work together toward the common goal.
