Project management: Some jobs to be done
What are the jobs being done ?
Clayton Christensen would always ask, when it came to a service or a product, what is the that is actually being done.
-
What information do I need to collect about our projects, so that I can answer any reasonable question from the Board, now or in the future ?
-
How can I see likely dependencies with the rest of the business, even those that are not baked into the schedule?
-
What are the actual project management tasks that need to be done for this business, in this sector, on behalf of this Board?
-
Which current projects are most likely to fail, based on our record.
