Project management has four functions:

• Planning: This is the process of determining what you want to accomplish, how you're going to get there, and when you'll finish. It's a big picture view that involves long-term thinking about the project.

• Organizing: Organizing involves defining roles and responsibilities for everyone on the team (the people who are responsible for completing tasks) as well as setting guidelines for how they should work together so everyone delivers their part of the project in a complementary way.

• Leading: Leading involves coaching your team through tough times, communicating with stakeholders often enough that they don't lose interest in your progress and can offer feedback, making sure everyone has everything they need to do their job well (including technology), delegating effectively so no one person gets overwhelmed by too much work at once—essentially putting yourself in others' shoes so they can excel at what they do best while building each other up instead of tearing one another down! If done correctly leadership can help build strong relationships within teams which is critical because it means having more people who know each other well enough where trust increases production quality... no matter how big or small scale projects may be!

Why do many organizations use project management?
