When it comes to uncertainty, many people who work on project management will feel the same, and a series of temporary problems, such as changes, delays, adjustments, plans to catch up with changes, team adjustment, etc., are the normal content of the project. But normal is not equal to reasonable, we still have to think about a problem, how to reduce the emergence of uncertainty, or how to avoid unnecessary risks.
first, we have to face the risks. The project has the innovation, certainly has the risk, certainly has the uncertainty factor. As we have said before, the project is the only one, the more unique the more valuable to the company's projects, the more attention of the company, but also will appear the more such projects, the greater the risk. But we also need to know that the risk can not be avoided if such a project once successful, no matter in the team, is a very fulfilling thing ah. So, don't be afraid of risk.
then we have to understand that it is not easy to do a project is true, but for the uncertainty, regardless of the risk behind it, as long as we find the exact variable, we can try to achieve early control and norms, to strive to not deviate from the results of the project. So, to do not despise.
in the end you have to think about it, before you do the project, whether you know which node on the project is uncertain, that is, which point is not sure, do you know? Careful analysis, when we do the project can not be completely uncertain, as long as you are prepared to do a good job planning, do a good job of uncertainty assessment and empirical analysis, should be able to evade certain risks. And as far as we know, many of today's projects are just a small part of the innovation, and it's not possible that the whole project will be innovative. So as long as the uncertainty of this small part of the place, should be very good to control the direction of the project. you may not be aware of the uncertainties and risks when you first receive this project, do we have a way to analyze these uncertainties, whether it is drawing on past experience and expert evaluation, only to let these uncertainties gradually become clear, into the certainty that can be controlled, We are the real managed environment that builds the project. The process of forecasting, reducing risk, even uncertainty is in our environmental forecasts, slowly transforming into certainty.
Let 's share this with you today, and next week we will continue to share the four-cross-functional nature of the project under the British system. To be continued in ...
