What is Project Management ?

Project Management is the discipline of planning, organizing and managing resources to bring about the successful completion of specific project goals and objectives. It is sometimes conflated with program management.
Technically program is actually a higher level construct: a group of rlated and somehow interdependent projects.
A project is a temporary endeavor, having a defined beginning and end (usually constrained by date, but can be by funding or deliverables), undertaken to meet unique goals and objectives, usually to bring about beneficial change or added value.
Project management can be defined as planning, organization, staffing, directing and controlling some parts of the organization for a relatively short period of time to achieve the project objectives within the laid down constraints.
