INTEGRATION OF MODERN TIME MANAGEMENT TOOLS INTO THE ACTIVITIES OF A PROJECT MANAGER

Abstract

In the article the theoretical principles of integrating modern time management tools into the activities of a project manager in the context of increasing complexity of management processes, digitalization of the business environment and the need to ensure effective use of time resources were revealed. It has been substantiated that time in modern conditions is transformed from a passive parameter of activity organization into a strategic management resource, the efficiency of which directly affects the effectiveness of project implementation.

The classical and digital time management tools by functional purpose has been systematized. The possibilities of using artificial intelligence technologies to optimize the time planning of a project manager have been investigated.

An author's approach to integrating time management tools according to the stages of the project life cycle, management levels and areas of activity has been proposed. The model for integrating time management tools into the project manager's activities is presented in four components: analytical (preliminary assessment of the scope of future tasks, analysis of available resources, time constraints and identification of risks of non-compliance with established deadlines), planning (direct formation of the project's time structure), organizational and communicative (effective interaction between project participants to perform planned work) and intellectual and analytical (involvement of modern artificial intelligence technologies for in-depth analysis of productivity, automation of routine operations, optimization of plans and forecasting of possible deviations from the schedule), the combination of which allows to improve the quality of management decisions, reduce the risks of violating time limits and ensure effective coordination of the activities of project team members.
