6. Centralized working refers to arranging some or all project team members to work in the same physical location to enhance the team's working ability. "War room" or "headquarters" is a centralized office strategy.
7. The construction of excellent teams can't be accomplished overnight. Generally, they go through the following five stages in turn: (1) formation stage (2) shock stage (3) standardization stage (4) development stage (5) dissolution stage.
No matter what stage we are in, adding one person or reducing one person will start from the formative period.
8. The power of the project manager comes from five sources.
(1) Position power comes from the position and authority of managers in the organization.
(2) the power of punishment, the ability to use negative means such as demotion, salary deduction, punishment, criticism and threats.
(3) the ability to reward power and reward subordinates.
(4) Expert power comes from personal professional skills.

The right of position, punishment and reward comes from the authorization of the organization, and the right of expert and reference comes from the manager himself.
9. In the project environment, conflicts are inevitable. Inconsistent demand, competition for scarce resources, poor communication, differences in priorities and personal work styles may all be the root causes of conflicts.
10, there are five common conflict resolution methods:
(1) retreat/avoid. Withdraw from actual or potential conflicts, postpone the problem until it is fully prepared, or push it to others to solve it. Both sides do not actively solve the problem and do not want to cooperate. Retreat is a temporary solution to the conflict.
(2) Moderate/tolerant. Emphasize agreement and downplay differences (even deny the existence of conflicts); In order to maintain harmony and relations, make unilateral concessions. This is a generous approach. For the sake of harmony and the overall situation, we will talk to each other, or temporarily put aside the controversial points and seek cooperation at other non-controversial points. Mitigation is also a temporary conflict resolution method.
(3) compromise/mediation. In order to solve the conflict temporarily or partially, we should find a solution that can satisfy all parties to some extent. Both sides are willing to resolve conflicts decisively and cooperate. Both sides got what they wanted, but only part, not all. Both sides made concessions, with gains and losses. Compromise is a double-sided tolerance, and tolerance is a unilateral compromise.
(4) coercion/command. Promote one's point of view at the expense of others; Only winning and losing schemes are provided. Usually, power is used to forcibly solve urgent problems. One side wins, one side loses.
(5) Cooperation/problem solving. Comprehensively consider different viewpoints and opinions, adopt a cooperative attitude and open dialogue, and guide all parties to reach a * * * understanding and commitment. This is the ideal result of both sides of the conflict, provided that both sides respect each other, are willing to cooperate and listen to each other.

12, Herzberg's two-factor theory
The first category is health care factors, including working environment, salary, company policy, personal life, management supervision, interpersonal relationship and so on. When health care factors are not perfect, people will feel dissatisfied with their work. But even if the health care factors are good, they can only eliminate the dissatisfaction at work, but can't increase people's satisfaction with work, so these factors can't play an incentive role.
The second category is incentive factors, which are related to employees' work itself or work content and can promote people's job satisfaction. They are high-level needs, including achievements, recognition, work itself, responsibilities, development opportunities and so on.
13, X theory and Y theory need to be mastered.
14. Expectation theory holds that the degree of motivation of a goal is influenced by two factors: (1) target valence (2) expected value.

18. The responsibility allocation matrix (RAM) is a table that shows the project resources allocated to each work package. An example of random access memory is RACI matrix. Is the most intuitive method.
19, text type. If you need to describe the responsibilities of team members in detail, you can use text.
20. The project organization chart is an integral part of the human resource management plan, which graphically shows the project team members and their reporting relationships.

The communication management plan can also include guidelines and templates for project status meetings, project team meetings, network meetings and emails. The communication management plan should also include instructions on the use of websites and project management software used in the project.
4. Through the analysis of communication needs, determine the information needs of project stakeholders, including the type and format of information needed and the value of information to stakeholders. The project manager should also use the number of potential communication channels or paths to reflect the complexity of project communication. The total number of potential communication channels is n*(n- 1) /2, where n represents the number of stakeholders. (master)
