Social Project Management

Tom · Jun 24, 2008 · 1 Comment

An interesting presentation about Social Project Management by Leisa Reichelt:

Social Project Management

view presentation (tags: collaboration process methodology agile)

She gave this presentation at the Enterprise 2.0 conference, and her main interest is to find

ways that we can break down monster projects into micro projects and be more iterative in the way that we work, and to work more collaboratively with teams that are made up of multiple disciplines

I am not sure whether I would agree with all the points she makes here but I definitely like the idea of breaking down projects which was called “staged delivery” before we came to the Web 2.0 world 🙂

    Most of the team-work results in the cancellation or a delay of the project because of the disfuntionality of the team and the team leader. However, there are steps that can be taken for the effective team results:

    • Leaders and the team have to follow the right behavior.
    • Leaders have to clearly define roles and expectations right from the beginning.
    • For better communication, individual meetings with team members are very essential.
    • Understanding each other well among team members will help in creating trust, more responsibility etc., for solving problems.
    • Every team member needs to commit to the project and the team as well as the desire to improve one’s own performance.
    • Leader should set a goal, create follow-up meetings, and communitcate that deadlines have to be strictly followed.
    • The leader has to set a mission statement and to develop communication strategies for his team.
    • Young professionals should be included in a team for the better usability of mixture of ideas.

    A problem in the team project should be solved through the way of conducting productive meetings and discussions of the problem by all team members in order to find out the proper solution. Proper commitments and strategies must be applied to the whole team so that it will end up with better team results.
