CEO.

•The whole company understands that this is a full-time
project manager position.

Assignment:

As the project manager, respond to the following
questions:

•In your opinion, what will be the greatest opportunity
and the greatest challenge that you will face in relation to planning and
executing an ongoing solution to the company’s staffing dilemma?

•In developing a plan to be presented to top management,
in your opinion, what factors should you consider in terms of the costs, scope,
quality, and risk issues associated with your proposal for dealing with this
crisis?

Forming Questions Based on Critical Reading

/in /by

Construct an open-ended question (see How to Ask an Open-ended Question
handout) to ask your peers about the literature you read in the class.
Avoid asking closed-end questions that require a “yes” or “no” answer.
The question should not be overly broad or too general, but focus on
specific literary conflicts, techniques, or themes.

In your initial post, please also share what you learned by reading your
peers’ posts throughout the class. Review your initial response to the
Clugston (2014) quote from Week One: “[T]here’s a powerful curiosity
about human relationships and how to cope in the world in which we find
ourselves” (section 1.1, “Connecting: Entering Into a Literary
Experience,” para. 2). Based on what you learned about literature, what
has changed?  How will these changes impact your perspective on
literature?

This exercise will allow you to engage in a discussion you create with
your peers. It also helps you to ask your own questions about
literature, which can serve as a gateway to initiating critical
analysis. Your initial post should be at least 200 words in length. The
minimum word count does not include references.

Budget Assignment

/in /by

1) Your budget is written with a 5% vacancy in enrollment contingency rate. For three months straight your vacancy rate has been about 6% percent. Would you try to make adjustments to the budget? If yes, what budgetary adjustments might you make? If you are not planning to make adjustments, explain your reason.

2) You are six months into to the school year and you notice that your food expenses to date equal $15,200. You have budgeted $27,000 per year for food. What information have you learned from this analysis and what will you do with this information? Note – your center does not participate in the CACFP – State food program, nor does it receive any other food reimbursement. Food costs are included as part of the student tuition. Would you include any other person/s when analyzing this issue and why would they be included?

3) You have budgeted $5,500 for educational supplies. The center consists of three preschool classrooms, one toddler room, and one infant room. Your preschool teachers come to you wanting a very expensive piece of playground equipment for the preschool playground. This piece of equipment would be about 65% of the allocated budgeted amount. How do you decide if you buy this piece of equipment? Do you take into account that this equipment will not benefit the children on the infant and toddler playground? Explain what decisions you would make and why?

forum discussion scope management(1-2paragraph and no quoting)

/in /by

As we briefly discussed in class, defining a clear scope is important… and a project manager should clearly identify what is IN scope, and significant items that are OUT of scope that some of the stakeholders may incorrectly expect were included. Please comment on one (or more) of the following points (and the comments of others!)

– What is the difference between PROJECT scope and Product Scope?

– How can the initial WBS help clarify the project scope?

– Why is it critical to manage scope (and any scope creep) throughout the project?

– If you were a project manager with a choice of working on a project with a well defined scope with a very aggressive timeline, or a project with a loosely defined scope and relaxed time line, which would you choose, and why?

1-2 short paragraph to answer all the questions and plz do not quote.
