Project Manager everyday kind of exactly how, the project manager should be how to manage their work time?
Personally I feel that the work products can be divided into so few:
- Objectives and mileage management
- Internal and external communication, to control resources
- Output knowledge, leadership
- Vision and insight management
- And enhance thinking skills
1-3 is a strong work-related, personal weak correlation; 4-5 is a weak work-related, personal strong correlation. I generally 1-3 will be allocated 70% of the time, 4-5 will be assigned 30% of the time.
I. Objectives and mileage management
Whether large companies or small companies an important mission, project manager of achieving the stated objectives of the product. It may be the strategic goal may be business goals.
As a project manager, you have to know exactly what is responsible for the project's goals are. Next, you need to analyze in order to achieve the stated goals, what resources you need, what needs doing. And your current progress to which step, which reached a key milestone, recording key milestones can greatly improve team morale, gather everyone's attention force, so that the whole team effort to make one.
Specific to the daily work, we should be concerned about the daily index data, analyze the reasons behind the change of index data, a look from the short-term and long-term goals of the gap, and things need some attention recently, and need to do. So go to the corresponding personnel move things to do, use the data to guide the development of the project.
This is the first ring of the daily work of project management, but also grasp the development trend of the important work of the project.
Second, internal and external communication, to control resources
With the goal, the next step lies executed. Do not do intellectual giant, dwarf action.
All the work priority in good order, and executives corresponding set a good schedule. Efficient use of requirements management tools, such as Tower or Teambition, or graphite forms. The benefits of such tools is that everyone can see at a glance the progress of all the requirements of data synchronization in the cloud, ensuring that everyone can see the information is consistent.
Of course, internal communication needs of not making a good demand schedule is over so simple. Tracking the progress of product development, product need every day to communicate with the corresponding technical students is smooth, if you are experiencing bottlenecks and demand is clear, whether the established review implementation of the results. Once a day to communicate the benefits obvious, you can maximize avoid deferred demand, such as the bottleneck, you may need to promote external force to solve, but you do not know the situation, it will lead demand has been dragging.
In addition, timely communication can also reduce the inconsistent demand and review the results of final acceptance of the case, after all the information in the delivery process can not always avoid bias. Timely communication you can to minimize this bias.
In addition to communication between students and technology, the product must learn leadership and coordination between the Leader and the. Any project coordinated with each other, need to be synchronized progress in every day situations.
Third, the knowledge output, Leadership
Once a student creed is a portrait of an army, like fighting, very powerful, she taught herself a lot of knowledge, the front, UI, interaction, and so on. And I would say, to go farther, you have to command an army to fight like a man the same.
Individual execution no matter how high, can do is limited. And it will do a project, it must be a good team division of labor. As a project manager, you can do is better output their professional knowledge, establish their own leadership and influence.
Some people who are divided into seven kinds of state, slaves, Christians, workers, artisans, family, teachers, holy.
Slave: refers to the involuntary and supervised by people who.
Acts: refers to the lack of capacity, and willing to voluntarily learn.
Workers: that is honest, outlaw a lot of people.
Carpenter: just mastery of a skill or craft, people rely on labor to survive.
Teacher: is to have some rules, but also will teach the law to others.
House: a fixed belief, let others mouthful of.
Holy: proficient affair, around things, selfless, human destiny of the people.
Their knowledge can be fully digested before being passed to others, themselves can also absorb grow again, by the Carpenter to the division level. Without worrying about someone else's growth rate will exceed their own, they will be threatened. When you are surrounded by like you are powerful or more powerful than you, the faster you can progress.
As for leadership and influence, then you need to fully prove their professional competence. What is a professional? Professional responsible for things that you will not go wrong, even beyond expectations. And professional people to cooperate together, always will be peace of mind, improves the efficiency of others, but also to increase the recognition of your team. Long continue, you must be a team of core staff.
Fourth, management vision and insight
Learn in practice is experience, experience is good you can make detours, but the drawbacks of thumb is to make you forget the other way.
You can do several things:
1) pay more attention Industry News
2) concern the industry competing products companies, upstream and downstream industry chain dynamics
3) focus on new products, you can see how others think, it may be determined after each DEMO will not fire.
Fifth, to enhance the skills and thinking
A project management skills: good use of tools. Project management tools, design tools, and more
Product Skills II: written document. After testing a document eligibility criteria is to let someone else read your documents, tell a third person to listen to, a third person can fully understand what you want to say.
Surgical skills, thinking for the Road. Not forest for the trees, seeking surgery forget Road. You can continue to polish skills in their daily work learning, enhance mind is more powerful than they need to communicate with people, deep reading and digesting.
"Qingyu years" in which he mentions, and powerful than their master duel, can quickly increase their skill. This applies equally in thinking collision, when communicating with their own higher contrast level person, you can be more clearly aware of their shortcomings. And access to higher density of knowledge. Outside of work with different industry heavyweights exchange business, the product may well be a good way to enhance their own thinking. At the same time the growth rate of personal feeling a lot faster, will not be so anxious.
