10 basic tips for Project Managers
A PM has to add these procedures in his routines.
1. A PM has to expect the unexpected. A good PM anticipates events and is well prepared with his team: he keeps a empty place for the uncertainty factor.
2. A PM has to pays attention to everything: little and big things. A single detail related his team needs opinion and importance.
3. All has to work together. A PM works with a team, so collaboration is a crucial point.
4. A PM has to carefully organize: it's important to keep coordinating or else his project will drift.
5. It's important a PM learns from his adversaries: team and customer will benefit from this.
6. A PM has to create strong relationship between customers and his team members. It's a way to motivate the team.
7. A PM has to update himself with goals. The goals aren't secret and he has to share with the team.
8. A PM has to look after his team. He can’t cater the client’s need unless he doesn’t take care of his team.
9. A PM has to build relationships with his customers. He can keep his client informed about project progresses and can use this way of work to build relationships.
10. A PM has to explore new visions: Managers have to be aware what other people are observing.
