PM Tip 8

Project Management Tip #8

To execute a project effectively, we recommend holding regular Team Accountability Sessions. These are very brief meetings where each person reports out on if they have kept their commitments and what their next tasks to complete are.  Here are some guidelines for a Team Accountability Session:

 

·         Bring the project schedule.
·         Report on last week’s commitments.
·         Make new commitments for the upcoming week.
·         Gather clear the path items that team members need assistance working through.
