So much of our work comes to us as a casual request, and initially, it seems like a piece of work that we can do ourselves. As we jump into it, what we come to realize is that we need to involve other people. Whether it's getting their help based on your skill set or getting their input because ultimately, they have to live with the work we’re creating.

As soon as it leaves our desk and we involve others, we’re talking about the fundamentals of project management.

There's a fundamental piece around scope which focuses on how deep and wide we're going to go and what specifically is going to be tackled in this body of work and what's going to be set aside.

There's also the idea of scheduling and how we manage our time, but also think about deliverables that we have to work backwards from.

Your feedback is important to us. Please check out our workshops for more information. Our next workshop, The Accidental Project Manager, is coming this December.
