Project Management like a Pro!

Planning on a weekly basis is essential for keeping your team efforts streamlined and your goals on track.The outcome of your weekly planning should be a clear set of weekly goals, tasks that everyone on the team is dedicated to completing within the week.

1. Plan

As you transition into the execution phase, you shift from the broad scope of weekly planning, a key component of your Project Management System, to the more focused arena of daily execution, something that belongs to the Task Management System.In addition to weekly planning, it's essential during execution for all team members to keep a pulse on these four critical elements to stay aligned with what needs immediate attention:1. Energy Levels2. Urgent Tasks3. Speedies4. And, Unexpected Events

2. Execute

At the <a href="https://paperlessmovement.com/">Paperless Movement®</a>, we don't subscribe to annual planning.Instead, we advocate for quarterly planning as a strategy for developing your initial set of Output Elements.So, each quarter, you set your goals, ensuring they are as specific as possible.Then, based on your goals, you create the Output Elements (Projects, Workstreams, or Operations) you may think of, outlining a high-level roadmap that includes start and end dates for each.

Step 1: Create Your Output Elements

Finally, we arrive at one of the most challenging elements that a Project Management System must address: ensuring that tasks and goals are aligned so, each day, the entire team advances toward their achievement.This concept addresses the critical question, “Am I doing what I should be doing?”, and it’s covered by PEA’s third and last stage: Align.Read the full article <a href="https://paperlessmovement.com/articles/the-execution-beast-the-perfect-mental-model-to-plan-execute-and-achieve-all-your-goals/">here</a>.

3. Align

To start with PEA, remember the 3 questions PEA answers:1. Plan: When am I going to do this?2. Execute: What do I do now?3. Align: Am I doing what I should be doing?
