What is Effective Project Management?
Client Communication – The client is the most important factor. The project must be satisfactory to the client in order to procure payment, future business and referred business. In order for the project to be delivered and satisfactory, the project manager must be able to assess the needs and the desires of the client. Then, he or she must be able to take those needs and communicate them to the project developers. As the project progresses, the project manager must be able to ensure that the needs and desires of the client are met within the project.
Cost – Most projects are on a budget and must be created using the resources available. While the project must stay on the budget, it must also be satisfactory to the client. The project manager must be able to properly allot certain percentages of the budget to certain areas within the project in order to ensure that this is happening.
Schedule – Projects are typically due by a certain date. In order to meet these schedule requirements, it must be broken down into parts or stages. Then, each one of these parts or stages should have a deadline. The project manager must be able to break down the project and determine the length of time needed to complete each part of the project to ensure that the overall finished piece is on schedule as well as satisfactory.
Effort – As each piece of the project is broken down for time purposes, each part of the project must be developed by experts. For example, video needs must be addressed by a video expert. Writing needs must be addressed by a writing expert, and so on. The project manager must be able to govern these experts for each need of the project and ensure that they are performing up to standards.
As you can see, each different aspect of the project is integral to the entire finished piece. These puzzle pieces must be placed together by the project manager in order to create one great finished picture. The skills to bring this to life will result in higher paying clients, more clients and of course, more production.
