Organizational Leadership: Strategic Leadership, Project Prioritization and Selection, and Project Integration
Project Managers (PMs) are often not selected and assigned until after a project has already been selected.

What are the potential problems a PM may encounter if he or she does not understand how a project he or she is managing fits into the organization’s overall strategy? Use examples to support your assertions.
