Project management
Your detailed coverage of change control as an essential quality for a good project manager is excellent and strongly crucial. I agree with you that for one to qualify as a good project manager, he/she has to effectively be able to successfully make sound decisions when faced with unprecedented changes in the project plan. Change control has become a key role in project management because it success majorly depends on their ability to adopt to changes in the initial organization and intended project flow (Hornstein, 2015, p. 294). As you have clearly stated, project managers have to be able to initiate and fully implement the project to success. They also have to account for plan deviations, assess the psychological analysis of the change, and come up with a decision that best handles the change.
Your approach on the effect of optimistic bias and project timeframe on projects, is well discussed and especially because you supported it with a real case scenario. The Myki project is a good case study as it shows the consequences of poor planning and over ambitiousness, without a strong project scope. I agree with your analysis on the dealing with a project that has minimal assumptions within it and involvement of every stakeholder through the project. Organizational project management has become an important characteristic in project management that project managers are expected to undergo training in it (Chen, 2015, p. 1394).
Overall, your project presentation is good and in accordance with academic writing expectations. It is well structured, and therefore appealing to the eye, and interesting to read. The font types and sizes match which is good work. However, a little more coverage on your case study would help give a more in depth explanation to your suggested implementation strategies.
