Between budgets, timelines, and unpredictable clients, managing well will give you as much control as you possibly can have
- Between budgets, timelines and unpredictable clients…managing a project well will give you…as much control as you can possibly have.…I had a conversation not long ago with one of my co-workers.…She was saying it would be great…to get all the details up front…before we start a project.…Have our clients and vendors agree…to a timeline and budget.…Have a certain amount of revisions and feedback allowed…and then have our clients sign off on what we present.…I took a breath, smiled and said,…I agree with you 100%.…I went on to tell her that she basically…just described the project management process.…
But in fact there are a bunch of items and steps…that she left out.…I share this with you because I think…in a perfect world we all want just that,…to spend time only on the things…that we are most suited for, inspired by…and excited about.…A great plan and clear steps will allow you to do that…as much as you can, but it very seldom works…exactly how you want it.…This is not meant to discourage you…but more so you have an approach grounded in reality.…
