Task Summary
After reading the project case study, use it to develop a 2,000-word Project Charter, describing the
entire project in a short, succinct, and professional document.
Context
Project leadership is about inspiring the project team to do their best from the outset. This requires
a combination of verbal and written communication skills and a range of applied leadership skills.
One of the foundational documents that helps “kick off” a project is the Project Charter. The Project
Charter describes the entire project in a short, succinct, and presentable document that can be
shared with project staff or other stakeholders and aims to commence the project in earnest. The
Project Charter helps to clarify the project context, the project team roles, and the goals of the
project.
Instructions
You will be given a project case study to use in order to develop your Project Charter. Though all
students will receive the same case study, it is expected that each student will think about the
project from their own perspective as an up-and-coming project manager in order to formulate a
unique Project Charter. Use your own style based on your critical thinking of what it means for you
PROJ6000_Assessment_3_Brief_Report_Module6.1

to lead a project. You may use one of the templates provided in the learning resources or develop
your own format.
Please follow the instructions below:
1. Read the case study provided by your lecturer. This will form the basis for your Project
Charter, because you will assume that you are the project manager for this project.
2. After reading the case study, begin to develop your project charter. This needs to be a 2,000word report (+/- 10%) and must use a minimum of six (6) references (academic literature
and industry publications—please consider the case study as a 7th reference). Please ensure
all references are cited in-text.
3. The Project Charter must include the following headings and should be written as if you are
presenting it to the project team that will build this project. You are the project manager.
The contents of your Charter should include:
a. Background of the project
b. Reasons for the project
c. Project objectives
d. Proposed project management approach or methodology/methodologies
e. Constraints, limitations, and risks
f. Leadership structure (project manager and his or her senior aides: list their roles and
explain what each does in the project. You need to cite four (4) roles)
g. Project risks and their mitigation
h. Project stakeholders and how to interact with them
i. The vision of the project and the type of project team culture you wish to promote
in your team
j. Reference list
Referencing
It is essential that you use appropriate APA style for citing and referencing research. Please see more
information on referencing here: https://library.torrens.edu.au/academicskills/apa/tool
