To help you succeed, we've compiled 8 tips to propel your organisation forward instead of holding it back.
Investing in the launch and planning phases
Establish, synchronise and agree key aspects such as priorities, objectives and organisational requirements at the outset of the project to reduce the risk of confusion later on.
Choose the framework or methodology best suited to your project
Choose the framework or methodology that suits your project, whether it's a critical path methodology to determine the duration of the project or a waterfall approach to clearly define the stages of the project.
Promoting a culture of transparency and ownership
Encourage transparency so that team members and managers can rely on each other, even when complexity increases. Encourage ownership through clear communication and by involving every employee in the planning process.
Define a realistic scope of application
Prevent drift by defining project elements precisely from the outset. Involve the right people in the planning process to avoid unforeseen problems.
Prioritising an efficient timetable
Create realistic schedules, taking into account your team's workload and the planned delivery date. Well-communicated schedules help to limit delays and costly setbacks.
Efficient resource management
Manage resources (human, financial, material) to maximise efficiency. Use concrete examples to visualise this, such as a contractor scheduling workers on several sites.
Engage your stakeholders
Good communication with stakeholders is essential. Use collaborative dashboards to display project data in real time, enabling all stakeholders to make quick and informed decisions.
Choose higher-level project management tools
Choose a modern platform like Work OS for cross-departmental collaboration, cloud-based file sharing and more. Customise workflows and integrate with other tools in your technology stack for complete project management.
Conclusion
Thanks to these tips, your organisation is well equipped to successfully meet all the challenges of project management.
