PMI idea ：

1 、 The project manager is the integrator , Is doing integrated management . The project manager is responsible for the project management ,“ management ” Is your core task , The project manager doesn't have to do everything himself Thing , such as ： You don't need to write code yourself 、 You don't have to be responsible for all the risks 、 Not all problems need to be solved ,PMI Pay attention to teamwork . 

2 、 The project manager must be authorized . For example, we need to establish a project first , Obtain project approval . A project manager without authorization is like not getting “ Imperial edict ”, There is no power to mobilize or use resources . Companies may call it different , Some are called project initiation reports . however PMI The project approval is uniformly called “ Project Charter ”. The approval of the project charter means that the project manager is authorized .

3 、 The project manager should be proactive , Encourage stakeholder participation . The project manager cannot simply obey the arrangement of the leader , Nor can we delay our work passively .

4 、 Refuse to gild , Refuse to be superfluous . gold-plated ： It's the project personnel who want to “ please ” Customers and “ Gild the lily ” Project activities .PMI Feel gilded The project failed , Oppose gilding . For example, the customer wants PM To buy a packet of cigarettes ,PM After buying cigarettes, I privately decided to match them with customers A lighter . This is gilding , Customers don't need lighters , Maybe the customer has more advanced “ZIPPO”. gold-plated , It's to paint the snake with the feet 、 Because it wastes resources . gold-plated ,PMI It's forbidden .

5 、 The project team must be respected 、 Attaches great importance to 、 And communicate in time , Oppose free overtime .

6 、 There are two factors that must be considered when doing projects ： Organizational process assets 、 Business environment factors . Organizational process assets ： such as , The project is finished , At the end, record the successful experience and failure lessons in the organizational process In production , Refer to the organizational process assets when starting the next project . Organizational process assets , Not just lessons learned , There's more , We will introduce it in the following chapters . Business environment factors ： The project team cannot change , such as ： Corporate culture 、 The company's system 、 Political atmosphere .

Answer skill ：

1、 Be sure to see the four options , Choose a relatively correct answer . Sometimes the four options are not principled By mistake , But choose one “ most ” Right . 

2、PMP The answer of the exam can't be judged by experience based on your actual work , Americans have some differences with us , Answer questions from PMI From the perspective of ideas . such as ： In order to improve customer satisfaction in actual work , Some value-added functions will be presented , These functions are in the scope originally agreed There is nothing in the enclosure , This is gold plating . however PMI Your attitude is very firm , Oppose gilding . 

3、 Pay attention to distinguish between redundant and misleading information , Pay attention to what is asked in the question , Some questions ask ： All the above are correct , except ？ 

4、 The project manager refused directly 、 And those who obey directly must be excluded , Definitely not the answer . The project manager should be proactive . 

5、 For the management of the project team , Pay attention to humanized management , If team members are tired , Should support rest , Against overtime , Generally speaking, sacrifice team and individual rest 、 vacation 、 The options of resignation and other requests are incorrect .

6、 Generally not choose PMBOK Strange words that have not appeared in , This is too unprofessional ;

such as ： At the monthly project status meeting , Customers complain about the lack of information related to the progress of the project . Which of the following should the project manager refer to Documents ？ 

A、 Progress report

B、 Schedule management plan  

C、 Communication management plan  

D、 Work performance report

Topic stem theory “ Customers complain about the lack of information related to the progress of the project ”, Judge the answer by experience A Progress report . however PMBOK did not “ Progress report ” The idea that , You must not choose A, choose A It's not professional ,A Just It's used to make soy sauce . right key C , Lack of information is caused by lack of communication .

Learning methods and suggestions ：

It's nearly three months before the exam .

3 、 Learning skills  

（1） Consider the past you shall know the future , Not only to see more wrong questions , Finish a set of questions , You should also look at it again . Because it is inevitable that some questions are right , Although the choice is right , But we don't know the specific principle , In order to ensure that the next time does not need to cover , We all have to watch it again , Make sure you have done every problem , We all know the principle clearly , Or the same type of selection .

（2） Be good at summarizing , For your own wrong questions and confusing questions , Should be good at comparison 、 summary , Record the rules by yourself .

（3） Be good at using fragmented time to learn . Everyone is busy at work during the day , I don't have the whole time to study in the evening , Then we should be good at using On the bus 、 On the way home from work 、 Rest at noon or study more in the evening before going to bed .
