GB560 Unit-6 Discussion

Project Management Best Practices

Managing a project of any size and scope can be a daunting task. There are many types of tools that can be used from a technical standpoint that can help the project manager plan, implement, and track the project. Sharing best practices for effective tools used in project management will be the focus of this discussion topic.

The discussion for this unit has three required sections:

1. Conduct a search on technology tools specifically designed for project management using the Purdue Global Library, the Internet, or other sources you have uncovered.
2. Use the information from this search to describe the key features of at least three tools. Use the criteria listed in the Richards (2019) reading for this unit as well as any other criteria used to select the tools.
3. Comment on personal experiences you may have had with these tools so others can learn from your knowledge and experience. If you have not had any personal experience(s), can you think of a time when you managed any type of project, personal or professional where the tool(s) would have been helpful?
