Project management is the discipline of planning, organizing, securing, and managing resources to achieve specific goals, as defined in the Wikipedia Article on Project Management.

Projects are, in general, temporary. Projects generally have a project owner, project manager, and a team. The project manager of the team is not a functional manager or direct supervisor of the team, but is instead a person responsible for the project schedule and the overall success of the project.

Many times, projects involve members of different functional skills or disciplines who are brought together temporarily to meet a common goal. Once the project is complete, the team may disband.
