Topic Summary:
Cracking the Project Code: How to Start a Project the Right Way
Many people have project-based jobs or handle projects in addition to their regular duties. How many project teams have you seen that took too long for the results they achieved, or strayed from their original objective, or just fizzled out due to lack of interest?
These pitfalls, and others, can be avoided by following a simple, powerful, yet flexible, method for getting started with a project. You’ll generate buy-in from everyone, scope out your project limits, and engage the team in problem solving and agreement on direction and goals. Additionally, learn ways to communicate project status quickly and efficiently to the right people.
Learn how to :
● Define a project that everyone understands
● Scope the project to be successful
● Plan initial project activities
