Create a 5-7 slide PowerPoint presentation, noting the inputs, outputs, tools, and techniques of each of the knowledge areas and process groups, and describing the relationships between them.
This week, you will learn about the 8 project management performance domains and what activities are included within each. The PMBOK® Guide (2021) defines a performance domain process as “interactive, interrelated, and interdependent areas of focus that work in unison to achieve desired project outcomes.” The activities included within each domain run concurrently, are interdependent of one another, and are tailored to the context and environment of the organization. Having a good understanding of each domain and what it entails will enable a successful delivery of the project.

Overview
For this assessment, imagine your employer has asked you to give a presentation to the company describing how you are applying the project performance domains defined in the PMBOK® Guide during your execution of the project you selected in Assessment 1. You must create a PowerPoint presentation showing how the knowledge areas and process groups are related during project implementation.
Context
Originally used by the U.S. military, project management has been adopted by many companies over the past several decades. Today, companies worldwide employ dedicated project managers. It is a field that is quickly growing in many aspects of business and IT.
In today’s fast-changing and highly competitive environment, many companies are looking to project management to provide a structured and an organized approach to managing projects through a well-planned and coordinated process. To begin to understand what is involved in developing this process, one needs to understand the components of project management, including methodologies, tools, techniques, and strategies. These include:
Project management life cycles.
Waterfall (traditional project management).
Agile project management.
Scrum.
DMAIC.
PMI knowledge areas (10).
PMI process groups (five).
As a project manager, your main duty is to develop, manage, and organize projects. This can be an overwhelming task if you are not prepared. A project manager must understand the needs, goals, wants, and anticipated outcomes of a project.
