WHY SOME LEADERS FAIL ON PROJECT MANAGEMENT

What Is Project Management? 📈

Project management is the practice of initiating, planning, executing, controlling, and closing the work of a team to achieve specific goals and meet specific success criteria at the specified time.
.

The primary challenge of project management is to achieve all of the project goals within the given constraints and these goals can be achieved however, if you take note of the three greatest assets in project management I’d be sharing.
.

WHAT ARE THE GREATEST ASSETS IN PROJECT MANAGEMENT.. .

Will you agree with me they are :
• PEOPLE
• VISION
• TIME
.
.
📎These key factors for me are very critical to the actualisation of any great project especially when people is involved. You cannot do the job alone hence you need people and must know how to manage them. .

There are a few leaders who still don’t know project management is actually people management. You treat them well and they get the job done. You know what can happen the other way round. Could this be the reason you have not been getting results?
.
.
📎The vision another can do without factor in project management. Vision is what actually drives you and the people to working in the first place. Where there is no vision, creating a project is just a waste of resources and this vision for productivity sake must be shared.
.
.
📎 Time as a key factor in project management cannot be overemphasized because every project must have time attached to it. .

The founder of @zaroncosmetics in Nigeria said in her words, “people talk alot about how they are going to do things or how they are going to invest in that business but they never attach a time or date to it”. In project management, goal setting is critical and nonnegotiable.
.

Time doesn’t just keep you in check, it is a great tool for accountability too.
