Project management Vs Management by Projects

Project management Vs Management by Projects

Both sounds similar right !
Yes it is but in reality they differ from Each other. So what makes them difference?

Well the answer is:
Project Management is same as managing a project which is finite in nature and having a Start and end.It produces an outcome or a result.Now say we have an opertaion to achieve business objective which also allow us or facilitate us to achieve project goals.This operation must be continous and it has multiple objectives .Now this opertaion can be managed by applying project management rules. But how, let us divide the whole operation into projects. Now to manage the operation we have to manage individual projects.

And so called as Management by Projects.

Case Study:

Let us Consider an Organization.Now it has say Multi Project Challenge.Now say  each project might finite but the process being followed to accomplish it inside the oraganization  must be contionous since to survive the organization must keep on continuing projects. Now to manage the process we need to consider it as a prject and so multi chain projects can be managed by manging the process by considering it as aproject.

So called as Management by Projects.
[Note: It also called as Management of Projects.]
