You are required to prepare a team presentation which critically evaluates and appraises the following elements in the context of the AstraZeneca Fighting a Global Pandemic case study Mega and Complex Project. • What are the major paradox and phenomenon in Mega and Complex Projects? • The role of Project Management in Mega and Complex Projects. • How effective Project Management have been used in Mega and Complex Projects to ensure time and cost-efficient Projects. Where are the significant and continuing gaps, issues, problems and challenges? Notes and guidance: Particular attention should be paid to demonstrating an understanding of complexity as it relates to and impacts upon the Group presentation and the impact will have to the audience. You should use case studies to provide context and evidence for your argument. There is a plethora of evidence about the topic, and it’s this evidence that will provide different perspectives on the issue. Particular attention should be paid to demonstrating an understanding of complexity as it relates to and impacts upon the management in Mega and Complex Projects as such. Additional research material and other case studies could be used as reference to provide context and evidence for your arguments The Group presentation will enhance the communication skills of students as prospective project managers. Communication plays an integral role in keeping a project on task. The project manager is charged with guiding all aspects of the project, including the communication plan. The specifics of communication, including the method and frequency, vary depending on your project's needs. Understanding the purpose of the project communication plan helps a manager realize the goals of the plan. From the AstraZeneca Fighting a Global Pandemic case study, you can draw from your own experience to develop your evaluation, argument and reflection. You may wish to consider successes, failures, best practices, lessons learned (or otherwise) and lessons yet to be learned. Be mindful not to merely describe (verbatim) – this should be a critical evaluation and demonstrate an understanding of the application of Project Management in Mega and Complex Projects. Consider the relevance and effective use in the Complex Project and Programme environment, dealing with multiple stakeholders in multiple Projects and multiple Programmes, benefit and value of the Mega and Complex Project or Programme outweighs the cost and time, e.g., political Public Relations (PR), country’s long-term image and reputation, instances of optimum bias. It’s important that you are critical rather than descriptive in your presentation. In academic terms, critical analysis means considering the claims of theorists, governments, authorities and so on, what they are based on, and how far they seem to apply or be relevant to your context.
