MICROMANAGEMENT: A Project Management Tool in Crisis

Abstract

Amandip Singh Sidhu

This article discusses micromanagement and its value to a Project Manager when the project is facing difficult circumstances and is near slipping on schedule, budget and/or scope. In an increasingly results focused operating environment, the Project Manager (PM) must be cognizant of the teams ability and progress. In normal circumstances, micromanagement is considered a poor method of management and one that does not foster long-term results. However, despite careful planning and execution, an issue can arise that has the potential to derail the entire project and hinder business case for completing the project. In such a situation when other approaches have failed, the Project Manager may find some resolution using carefully planned and conducted micromanagement.
