Reflection
After completing this assignment, I actually got an overview on how an excellent project being manage and what are the factors that need to be taken into counter when managing a project. This talk inspire me to learn more on how to manage big IT project as it requires special training to be an expert in managing project. Learning to manage IT projects will somehow help me to improve my management skills and at the same time improve my potential in the industry. I believe that being an IT project manager will help me a lot in the future as I get to learn from experience of handling projects and to think critically on problem solving.
