A simple way to manging a project whether it is complex or not, Gantt Chart also called Bar Chart has great benefits for many different aspects of executing a project such as having an overview, communication with team or stakeholders, delegating tasks, planning, list of resources, previous and new incoming project information, deliveries, milestones, monitoring etc. A Gantt Chart contains the list of tasks or activities plotted against the duration either in dates or weeks and the progress of each tasks. It also indicates who is assigned to which tasks. If we think more structured these tasks or activities is also divided into different phases of a project, which depends on what kind of field the project manager is working in. A Gantt Chart can either be scheduled as a simple summary of project information which creates a quick overview or towards a more detailed schedule.
