Communication with the different stakeholders who are entailed in the project discuss over the factors that have the potential to influence or affect the project execution as a whole, thus this would affect the final outcome of a project.

Project charter ideally holds the records of all the primary constraints of a project, which in turn describes the personal achievements of a manager that is achievable through the execution of a project. The human resource factors must be considered along with the resources that are important for the project execution.

PMI Implementing Organizational PM Chapter 3

There is a statement providing the fact that the project progressed for an external source views a project manager as a person having a golden pot and then the person has to manage the entire project with only that pot of gold sufficiently making out profits for all the stakeholders of the organization. This means that the externally source projects deliver the project managers with the ability to progress the project in a much organized way that helps in the better execution of the project and produces the deliverables and objectives of the project successfully. Nevertheless, there are many risk factors in a project propagation that needs to be considered as well through the delivery of the project.

Although, it also has to be kept in mind that not all the risk factors are major enough to be considered, but the ones that have the probability of affecting the effective and efficient propagation of a project needs to be eradicated at once. This can even affect a project manager to take back the task sixty weeks away from the proposed timeline. Time is a factor has to be considered in every project management task for having an improved and solid experience of every aspect of the project. If efficiency has to be kept at a high level in a project, then time should be invested more, because a close to perfection project is not achievable in a hurried manner.

PMI Managing Change Preface, Chapters 1, 2 & 3

Project Management has a tendency to turn into over management when a project becomes superior in priority than the achieving of the project goals and objectives and these are seconded in comparison. The entire focus of the project then shifts from the output and productivity of the organization and focuses more on the management of the overall project. This is a negative impact in the progress of a project.

It is entirely the responsibility of a project manager to identify the changes in the project management and have interaction between the management throughout the entire process transferring the knowledge. This is to be considered as a necessity since the coordination between the management and the project programme team depends upon each other.
