Step 1 – Read the Information Below

Daniel Goleman, a psychologist, was the first to popularize the trait emotional intelligence, sometimes referred to as EI. Emotional intelligence is a person’s capacity to be aware of her or his emotions and feelings towards others to influence their thinking and actions. The four components of EI are:

• Self-awareness: This is your ability to read your own emotions accurately to know how your actions or lack thereof affect others.
• Self-management: This is your ability to control or regulate your emotions and act with integrity.
• Social-awareness: Gives you the ability to understand the needs of others and show empathy towards them.
• Relationship management: this is your ability to communicate clearly and convincingly, reduce conflict and build strong bonds.

• Your HR project to develop a centralized model of delivering HR  services has progressed through very critical stages of the project thus  far.

1. Explain what it means to successfully direct and manage  project work, and identify and discuss 3–4 strategies you might use to  manage and sustain progress in your HR project. Be specific.
2. Identify and discuss a minimum of three strategies that could  be used to address and resolve any risks within the control of the  project. Hint: See Exhibit 14.5 in the textbook. Is any one of the  strategies you selected more important than the others? Why?
3. Describe 2–3 actions a project manager may take as they begin  to close out the project. Be sure to justify using the actions you  discuss.
4. Review Project Management in Action: The Power of Lessons  Learned (pages 518–520 in the textbook), and provide an overview to the  project team on the significance of the information. Be specific.
