# Project Management™
|
||||
|
||||
[[this-notebook]] assumes the reader is more familiar with the construction industry
|
||||
than with any of the other disciplines introduced.
|
||||
As such, "project management" usually refers to _construction_ project management,
|
||||
or more generally to a layman understanding of the term:
|
||||
roughly, "the organizational processes necessary to complete a long-term goal".
|
||||
%%
|
||||
|
||||
Where I am referring specifically to the discipline,
|
||||
as documented by the [Project Management Institute](htpps://pmi.org),
|
||||
I've opted to humorously style the term as Project Management™ for clarity.
|
||||

## The Problem with Project Management™
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|

|
||||
|

%%
|
||||
|
||||
This note is distinguished from [[project-management]]
|
||||
by referring specifically to doctrine/curriculum,
|
||||
especially as documented by [The Project Management Institute](htpps://pmi.org).
|
||||
I've opted to humorously style this concept as Project Management™ for clarity.
|
||||
That is, "Project management" could never be wrong or even misguided,
|
||||
but Project Management™ can (and often is).
|
||||
|
||||
This note may include generic criticism,
|
||||
but discussion of the applicability (or lack thereof)
|
||||
of Project Management™ to construction specifically
|
||||
|
||||
## Criticism
|
||||
|
||||
The term "Project Management" is deliberately vague,
|
||||
in the hope that generalizing the terminology
|
||||
maximizes its applicability across industries.
|
||||
|
||||
There are many core Project Management™ ideas that have no parallel in construction,
|
||||
and there are as many or more critical construction project management problems
|
||||
There are many core Project Management™ ideas
|
||||
that have no parallel in other industries,
|
||||
and industries often have problems of project management
|
||||
that Project Management™ doctrine has no good solutions for.
|
||||
See [[project-management-tm-for-construction]] for examples.
|
||||
|
||||
I would posit that, despite its cross-discipline language,
|
||||
Project Management™ practice is only _universally_ applicable
