Managing projects is not for the weak and timid. It is a tough job and project managers need all the help they can get.
Here are 8 essential success factors you can use today:
- Use check lists so you don’t forget any steps
- I don’t like surprises. Your stakeholders, customers, and team won’t either. Communicate early and communicate often
- Establish communication ground rules
- With good planning, we know what is coming up and we can spend our time being proactive rather than reactive
- Make sure your team knows their roles and responsibilities
- How you manage project changes will make the difference between success and failure
- We have no time to waste on projects. Your role as project manager is to get the team working together as quickly as possible
