EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This submission identifies the various challenges portrayed in the case study. It presents an evaluation of these challenges and seeks to identify the causes which led to the challenges. Multi Projects Incorporated is a company that provides a consulting service, it relies on the acceptance of project proposals in order to generate revenue. In the case study, Multi Projects Incorporated has two projects which have been awarded to the organisation. These are at different stages in the project lifecycle. The Goodold project is presently in the Implementation Phase, while the Growin Corporation project has just been awarded to Multi Projects Incorporated and can be said to be at the Initiation Phase.

The dilemma presented is that the project manager of the latter project, Jeff Armstrong, is not incumbent of a team player. This submission elaborates on the factors which appear to have caused the dilemma in the organisation, as presented in the case study. The factors include organizational strategy, organizational structure, human resources development and communication. These factors are presented as the driving force behind what appears to be a project manager who is displaying undesirable characteristics.

Recommendations as to what and how change should be affected are provided in order to drive behaviours which are perceived as more favourable when considering effective project leadership.
