Northwestern Polytechnic University The Problem of Multitasking Case Study FILLER TEXTCase Study 4.1

1. Imagine you are a human resources professional at Pureswing who has been assigned to develop a program for recruiting new project managers. Design a job description for the position.

2. What qualities and personal characteristics support a higher likelihood of success as a project manager?

3. What qualities and personal characteristics would make it difficult to be a successful project manager?

Case Study 12.1

1. How does multitasking confuse the resource availability of project team personnel?

2. “In modem organizations, it is impossible to eliminate multitasking for the average employee.” Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Why?

3. Because of the problems of multitasking, project managers must remember that there is a difference between an activity’s duration and the project calendar. In other words, 40 hours of work on a project task is not the same thing as one week on the baseline schedule. Please comment on this concept. Why does multitasking “decouple” activity duration estimates from the project schedule?
