Green Project Management

PM00.10G

The world is going green. We are collectively realizing that we do not have an unlimited amount of air or water or space to continue to utilize resources as we have done in the past. How can we apply these "green" concepts to our project management discipline? One obvious way is that we can manage green projects more efficiently. The sooner that project ends, the sooner the green benefits will be achieved.

Most project managers however, do not manage these kinds of projects. Most of us manage projects such as installing a new software package or upgrading network infrastructure. How can these projects become more environmentally friendly?
The answer is Green Project Management (GreenPM®). Green project management is a model where we think green throughout our project and make decisions that take into account the impact on the environment - if any. It is a way to ingrain "GreenThink" into every project management process.
