Rethinking the implementation of project management: A Value Adding Path Map approach

The right implementation of project management can add great value to an organization. Nevertheless, some organizations have gained little value from project management due to the fact that they have not introduced and applied project management correctly. Therefore, it is very important for an organization to enhance the soft system and the hard system synchronously in the process of implementing project management. In this paper, the author has put forward an approach named Value Adding Path Map (VAPM) which can be used to direct an organization to implement project management in the most reasonable, logical, and economical way. At last, a case has been presented to show how to apply this approach.
