The science of project management gives us the ability to calculate schedules, calculate budgets, forecast resource requirements, measure performance, estimate risk probabilities, and much more. This chapter describes how tool sets help to overcome problems that crop up on projects of any size, in any industry. With this chapter as a starting point, we can begin practicing the art of project management on the problems confronting our own projects. The chapter explains the steps that the project manager needs to follow in different project scenarios, including disaster recovery, time to market reduction, customer hold‐ups, and managing volunteers. Practicing the art of project management begins not only with understanding the science of project management, but also believing that it works. The project manager will encounter opposition from people, will test our conviction, particularly if the cynic is our boss or customer. We must hold true to the discipline through any opposition.
