Week 2 Discussion – Project Structure


 You are working with your project sponsor to decide on the optimal project management structure for an upcoming complex project that will involve more than 100 members. The project is similar in complexity to the Marriott Hotel headquarters relocation project, described in the Marriot International Headquarters Headquarters and Hotel Project on the Montgomery County MD websiteLinks to an external site..

  • The sponsor believes that a dedicated project team structure will not work. He has the same concerns about this structure that the author has noted in your textbook. You are confident that this structure or a matrix structure will work for the project. Select the structure you think will be the most successful. Describe that structure to the sponsor and explain why you believe it will be successful.
