And if you respond to every change request as \u201cNO! OUT-OF-SCOPE!\u201d your project management career journey will be brief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/f.hubspotusercontent40.net\/hubfs\/3294842\/Project%20Scope%202.png\" alt=\"Project Scope 2\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply put, managing project scope is ensuring all of the required work and only the required work necessary to complete the project is accomplished (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pmi.org\/learning\/library\/project-scope-statement-skills-tools-7981\">PMI, 2004, p103<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"why-manage-scope\">Why Does It Need \u201cManaging\u201d?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If it was easy as telling everyone that submitted a change \u201cnope, not going to happen\u201d well then, we would not need scope management skills and more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pmi.org\/learning\/library\/project-scope-statement-skills-tools-7981\">29% of projects would be a success<\/a>. In the Project Management Institute article, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pmi.org\/learning\/library\/scope-control-projects-you-6972\"><em>Scope Change Control: Control Your Projects Or Your Projects Will Control You!,<\/em><\/a> the Project Management author shares than a lack of Project Scope Management leads to projects stalled or destroyed by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><em>The whims of stakeholders and project team members<\/em><\/li><li><em>Stakeholders with bad memories about what was (or was not) in scope<\/em><\/li><li><em>Stakeholders with good memories that know exactly what was originally approved but choose not to remember<\/em><\/li><li><em>Great ideas that can have serious consequences to the project&#8217;s schedule, cost, and final benefit<\/em><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>How many of those things have you already experienced? Some of us have had many of those happen within the same project! Without a doubt, change will happen, and some changes are necessary and helpful. Other changes will lead to disaster. A Project Manager\u2019s role is not one of halting any and all changes; rather, with training and experience, managing the change process to ensure positive opportunities are not missed and extraneous efforts do not derail the work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some changes occur outside of formal change requests. Consider the changes in remote teamwork resulting from Covid-19 precautions; Project Managers could not simply say \u201cnope, our team has to continue working in the same office regardless\u201d but rather within different constraints, they had to find new ways to foster collaboration and maintain productivity. Managing scope well enables you to guide the project work through different types of changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Studying for the PMP Exam?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-horizontal is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/projectmanagementacademy.net\/free-pmp-questions\" style=\"border-radius:2px;background-color:#366194\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">PMP Practice Questions<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:8px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-manage-scope\">How Do You Manage Project Scope?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The full breadth of Managing Project Scope practices and tips is beyond this article. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pmi.org\/\">Project Management Institute (PMI)<\/a> alone offers ~ 5,000 results on the topic. Interestingly, the #1 U.S. job site (as of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.similarweb.com\/website\/indeed.com\/#overview\">SimliarWeb rankings 08.10.2020<\/a>) provides a powerful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indeed.com\/career-advice\/career-development\/project-scope-management\">Project Scope Management guide<\/a> for Project Managers; it is indicative of the significance and industry-agnostic importance of the scope management skill set that it is included in career sites. The full <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indeed.com\/career-advice\/career-development\/project-scope-management\">Project Scope Management guide<\/a> provides specifics such as how to scope a project as shown in this excerpt:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/f.hubspotusercontent40.net\/hubfs\/3294842\/Project%20Scope%203.png\" alt=\"Project Scope 3\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"when-to-manage-scope\">When Do You Manage Project Scope?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an easy one: throughout the entire project. As seasoned Project Managers will share, someone is always asking for a change. If you can not manage the scope, then the changes will populate and the project\u2019s risk of failure can expand accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-skills\">What skills are needed to manage project scope?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because changes come from Clients, Customers, Team Members, and Stakeholders, Project Managers should develop several interrelated skills to manage scope. Consider these training resources:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/projectmanagementacademy.net\/work-breakdown-structure\">Work Breakdown Structure (WBS)<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/projectmanagementacademy.net\/managing-client-and-stakeholder-expectations\">Managing Client and Stakeholder Expectations for Project Managers<\/a> (from an IT perspective)<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/projectmanagementacademy.net\/strategic-planning-and-thinking-for-project-managers\">Strategic Planning and Thinking for Project Managers<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing how the WBS can be used as a road map to help ensure project success. In conjunction with tools like the WBS, Project Managers need soft skills around negotiation and setting expectations. And to balance both the technical and soft skills, Project Management benefit from training in strategic planning and thinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"good-for-career\">Managing Project Scope: What\u2019s Good for Your Project Is Good for Your Career<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition skill training, consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indeed.com\/career-advice\/career-development\/project-scope-management\">Project Scope Management guide<\/a>\u2019s tips:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Dedicate a few days to the development of the project scope.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Maintain consistent communication.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Be conscious of necessary changes.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>With quality project management training, proven tools, strong documentation, and vetted processes you can manage scope so that your stakeholders maintain their support of the project and your team is able to stay on track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p style=\"font-size:25px\"><strong>Upcoming PMP Certification Training &#8211; Live &amp; Online Classes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\"><table class=\"table table-striped table-bordered table-responsive-sm font-md mt-5 mb-0 d-none d-md-table\"><tr><td>Name<\/td><td>Date<\/td><td>Place<\/td><td><\/td><\/tr><\/table>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everything is ready for your Project Kick Off: a scope statement, a defined process for approvals, a documented change process, and a detailed Work Breakdown Structure (WBS).
