One of the outputs of process 9.1 Plan Human Resource Management is, not surprisingly, the Human Resource Management Plan. The purpose of this post is to discuss what elements are in the plan, and why they are there.

This is important for process 9.2 Acquire Project Team. The reporting relationships and other interactions on the team that are illustrated in the project organizational charts are important for the process 9.3 Develop Project Team. Finally, the roles and responsibilities that the members will fulfill are important for the process 9.4 Manage Project Team.
