Engaging Employees Successfully in Project Management Practices

Abstract

Engaging employees in project management practices can be a daunting task in all the organizations. With the expansion of global teams, new technological advances in global meetings and larger groups of diverse employees, working towards a project's success, it is imperative to engage all members of the team in the planning and implementation of a project life cycle. How can project managers effectively engage teams of employees with varying degrees of skills, expertise, education and experiences? This paper includes a discussion of methods project managers can use with employees through interactions, training the trainer, engagement, and employee buy-in.
