Applied Project Management Attendees will group into project teams (just like at STS) Instead of engineering, will conduct project management Develop two-year project plan for their project/board/committee Spans July 2017 – July 2019 Plan to be adjusted/refined at 2018 SPMM; new plan developed at 2019 SPMM Includes budget, work milestones, team membership, publicity/marketing, outreach, etc.

Consequences of No / Poor Plan Confusion over roles Scope creep Inadequate team skill set Inadequate funding “Last minute” rushing Loss of confidence in project Perception of “stuck”, too much, or too little to do Lack of NSBE awareness or pride in your project Reduced relevance to personal/career interests

Project Accountability Invested time of Space SIG members Invested money of Space SIG sponsors Invested hope of supportive NSBE members Invested sacrifice of our ancestors Whether your project team is healthy or anemic, SPMM is your opportunity to plant the seeds for new life
