discuss the role of IT leadership and communication in project scope management.

Reflect on the following in a minimum of 350 words each. (350 * 6 = 2100 Words)

1. Thought Leaders on Leadership​​​​​​​

Research and reflect on one of these thought leaders on leadership: Stephen Covey, Jim Collins, John Maxwell, Lolly Daskal, Sylvia Ann Hewlett, or the team of Jocko Willink and Leif Babin.

• Summarize      their core beliefs on leadership.
• Identify      critical leadership traits, behaviors, and communication tactics      highlighted by the thought leader.
• Discuss      what you learned from your research on your selected thought leader,      including any changes you want to make to your leadership traits,      behaviors, and communication tactics at work.
• Discuss      how you can apply their teachings on leadership to an IT manager position.

2. Communication in Project Management

Reflect on how project management involves detailed communications where a misunderstanding can impact dozens of future tasks within a project or cause a dozen tasks that were already completed to be redone. Sometimes the best way to learn is to examine mistakes you have experienced.

• Discuss      three examples of poor communication that negatively impacted an IT      project and how you would improve them. You can use examples from your      past work experiences or examples you researched.
• Discuss      an additional three examples of poor communication with the c-suite and      how you would improve them. Again, you can use examples from your past      work experiences or examples you researched.
• Consider      all of the forms and types of communication you send and are sent to you      at work in a given week. You can include nonverbal communication too.

3. Project Scope Management

Reflect on how project scope management is a critical step in project integration. To help illustrate its importance, consider what happens without it.

• For      a CRM software implementation project, list five specific potential      problems and their negative impacts on this IT project if the project      scope is not defined or if it is allowed to be changed by anyone in the      middle of the project.
• Using      the perspective of an IT manager, discuss the most important aspects of      the scope that need to be defined for a CRM software implementation      project to be successful.
