A few days after the executive team meeting, Fred decided that it was time to set up the committee that would take responsibility for what he called the ALF project. He quickly decided to include the following staff at the launch meeting: Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Vice President of Business Development and Marketing Rehab Services Medical Director Construction Project Manager for capital facilities projects Chief Operations Officer (COO) (nursing, facilities, food services, and housekeeping) Director of Information Services Director of Support Services (central supply, purchasing, and security) Two members of the Board of Trustees, one with construction experience and the other a probable electee to the city council. Even though the department directors from Support Services and Information Services would not be involved until later, Fred decided to include them from the beginning. Fred knew some members of his team had a tendency to become obstacles to progress if they felt left out. Fred named the group the ALF Project Steering Committee and held the first meeting. Fred presented his vision for the facility. He told the group that he personally would be managing this project. QUESTIONS 1. Comment on the pros and cons of the CEO, Dr. Splient, as the Project Manager. 2. Who is the funder of the project? Who is the sponsor? Who is the project owner? 3. List all the potential stakeholders in this project. 4. This initiative consists of a variety of separate efforts from a lot of different groups and individuals. What are the advantages and disadvantages of structuring it as a program consisting of a set of separate projects? Would you recommend this, under the circumstances?
