IPMA Recruits Assessors for IPMA Project Excellence Award 2012 Reported by Ewa Bednarczyk in Krakow 17 January 2012 - Every year a group of around 100 assessors get a unique chance to gain the experience in the assessment of the best managed projects in the world. They assess the projects coming from all industries and continents which take the challenge and apply for the IPMA International Project Excellence Award. This is the annual award organized by the International Project Management Association, based on the Project Excellence Model.  The assessors are the heart of the assessment process. In each project case four or five assessors work together on an application. Prof. Ding Ronggui (China) and Prof. Rajat Baisya (India) both experience assessors, Team Lead Assessors and Trainers stress that this is an excellence chance to work with project professionals and share ideas and lessons with them.  The first part of the assessment is done based on the application report, secondly the assessors meet with the project team and stakeholders at the site visit. The single benefit of being an assessor according toProf. Ding Ronngui is the fact that at the site visit the assessors have an opportunity to discuss with excellent project managers in different industries how to manage projects successfully, to review real case documents an management tools, and to get lots of best practices, which are valuable to make great improvement to our projects.  For another experience TLAs Greg Dzwonnik (Poland) working with the best projects in the world is something he values most highly in this job: "it is absolutely great feeling to be in the front line and observe companies which shapes PM body of knowledge. As an assessor he has a great chance to learn from the mistakes of others and, what is even more important, I am inspired by the best professionals. It helps me to build my individual lessons learned repository much faster. In that sense each assessment is for me a priceless source of guidance where to find in my current work the areas for further improvement." Prof. Rajat Baisya adds that each project is unique in its character, deliverables, complexity and resources. Therefore, working as an assessor provides new learning in terms of how the local project management team has addressed those issues in a given situation. There is always a better way of doing things and thus assessor gets to know how projects are managed and project management practices are evolving in different socio- cultural set up. Integration of these knowledge provides new insights to an assessor. Moreover assessors get a holistic perspective of how project performance is measured and how various criteria and sub-criteria impacts projects results. And most importantly assessors get to know a model of project assessment which can be applied in their own work situation.  Now the IPMA gives an opportunity to become an assessor for the 2012 competition by organizing two assessors training in Europe (2-4 March- Milan) and Asia (30 March-1 April - Kathmandu). As Prof. Ding Ronngui says: "The managers applying for international award are great, and you might be their assessor. This kind of special experience is so wonderful!".
