Week7: Project Close-out Assignment
Your project outcome is now known and you are to share your results with the rest of the class. For this assignment, you are required to prepare a final video presentation via Kaltura and Lessons Learned Report to share with the class. Projects can teach many valuable lessons about teams and processes over the life of a project. The Lessons Learned Report is used to gather personal and team recommendations throughout and after a project and can add value to the business by collecting this information from all project stakeholders and participants. This information can be leveraged to improve future project performance and risks. Project lessons can either be positive or negative. Either way, reviewing this information throughout the project and at project closure is beneficial.
In your Close-out video, you will convey your project results. Results should highlight the PMBOK areas covered as well as the unique aspects uncovered during the execution of the project. It is expected that the “What” was the outcome of your project will be covered in addition to these questions being addressed:
- What did I do?
- What did I learn?
- Based on your observation of the project outcome, what recommendations would you have for a fellow project manager?
- What were your Lessons Learned and how can they be leveraged for future projects?
Post your final presentation and Lesson Learned document (as a PowerPoint or Word file) in this Discussion Board. All students are expected to participate by providing feedback to three peers.
