Dairy 01/18

The assignments for the MPR class are set. I am going to be a one of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh's Project Managers. Doing this successfully will be 40% of my grade. I have to - according to the syllabus:

1. Have MAXIMUM ENTHUSIASM
2. Have a close working relationship with the Teachers Assistant (TA) and Team Leaders
3. Be the Go-To Person for Questions from TA and Team Leaders
4. Have working knowledge of time line and changes
5. Monitor Progress of Teams and Keep Teams on Track
6. Opening Weekend Availability— This won't happen since I am in Ohio
7. Write and evaluative Report

The instructor sent us a link to a website giving information about "qualities of a great project manager". http://www.martinbauer.com/Articles/Qualities-of-a-Great-Project-Manager Sounds daunting. I think I am up to the task - even though I am not sure EXACTLY what the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh project is...

I am also aware of my (final. Hopefully forever) group project and most of it's members. One is Nicole - YEAH! - from my cohort. I have a good feeling about this group. We have until April before the presentation so no rush. I've already emailed everyone from both groups to get the ball(s) rolling.

Here we go.
