Compass Project Management, Inc. was founded on the principle that successful projects result from a deliberate process of developing the best plan, assembling the most qualified team, and committing to excellence in execution from concept to closeout. Three attributes underpin the Compass Philosophy... Leadership. Collaboration. Accountability. Project Leadership Leadership is the vision, temperament, and experience to interpret and deliver on the client's goals. By understanding and effectively communicating the client's strategy and mission, the project leader empowers the team to make sound decisions always in the best interest of the client creating a successful outcome. Collaboration Collaboration is the practice of a series of specific skills that focuses the project team's attention to desired results and provides the process under which the group shares information and resources. Often misunderstood as a "soft" skill or attitude, effective collaboration can be learned and is the product of conscious and intense preparation. Shared Responsibility Shared responsibility is the recognition that all members of a project team are accountable and responsible for the success of a project. The actions, or inactions, of discrete members of the team can have a lasting effect on the outcome of the project.
