What Is a Project in Project Management?
Simply put, a project is a series of tasks that need to be completed to reach a specific outcome. A project can also be defined as a set of inputs and outputs required to achieve a particular goal. Projects can range from simple to complex and can be managed by one person or a hundred. Projects are often described and delegated by a manager or executive. They go over their expectations and goals, and it's up to the team to manage logistics and execute the project on time. Sometimes deadlines can be given. For good project productivity, some teams break it up into individual tasks to manage accountability and utilize team strengths.
