PSI CONTRIBUTION

To get most or all of your ten points here is very simple. The ten points is a measure of how much you are going to embrace all the jobs on a project and take them forward. Pause for a moment before you award yourself an automatic ten here.

A ten means that you are going to move heaven and earth, do whatever has to be done to make a project happen. Irrespective of formal structures, political considerations, resource or personnel constraints, famine , fire, flood, pestilence, war, nothing is going to stand in your way.

Now it seems to me that as human beings we may be able to bring such energy to bear on some projects. By and large, I don't think we can do it on all projects we become involved in. This, of course, merely reflects the rather obvious fact that some projects are more important than others. Thus, there may be some projects under our control that we are going to do everything possible to make happen. Then, fair play, we draw our ten points. Similarly, though, there may well be others where we decide that we just aren't prepared to give them that level of energy. There is no inherent problem with this provided we recognize that the lower score we award ourselves here reflects the fact that things may get forgotten or fall between the cracks, and we need to perhaps keep a weather eye out for these.

STRUCTURED PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Planning the project

  1. VISUALIZE WHAT THE GOAL IS; SET YOUR EYES ON THE PRIZE

  2. MAKE A LIST OF THE JOBS THAT NEED TO BE DONE

  3. THERE MUST BE ONE LEADER
