Project management Reading Notes-manage it-identifying and avoiding schedule games (2)

The following practices apply to this situation:
Your projects are larger than any of the projects you have done before. They use new languages, new platforms, new operating systems, and new business fields, it is also related to the survival of the company. Now, the end of the world is coming for you.

1. Judge and write out the list of risks. You may have technical risks, progress risks, or both.
2. Do not select the waterfall model for development, because you do not have any experience in evaluation, planning, and everything is new. If you have never touched this field before (this technology), use the original method or implement small feature to see what will happen.
3. Consider using Hudson Bay start. This short-term iteration will allow you to quickly get results, analyze and change results, improve project development, discover new risks, and avoid them in time.
4. Ensure that the project personnel have relevant technical and domain business knowledge. If none, try to train them. The training cost is much lower than the time wasted in development.
5. plan everything, especially the project plan and estimation.
6. Actively seek help from areas and expertise that you lack. Work with the project team to find a way to make the progress visible, so that everyone's work progress can be seen.
7. Make deliverables for milestone, and then discuss on the review meeting at the management level whether these deliverables are actually needed. If the management is not enthusiastic about such a meeting, you can drive it yourself. Regular reviewmilestone allows the project to stay on track.

As a project manager, your task is to plan, plan, and then plan, and then work out the best products with the project team. Try the following practices:
1. Use timeboxed iteration so that everyone can see the project progress (including boess and potential customers of project team members)
2. Draw the project speed on the schedule. Let everyone know the progress of the project as much as possible, so that when you have problems and need help, you know what kind of help to seek.

A new project is a huge challenge for both the project manager and other members of the project team. The secret to achieving this challenge is:
1. Make some things as soon as possible, analyze these things, then make other things based on the analysis, and then analyze and then do so.
2. Make the progress visible at any time, let everyone know the progress of the project, enhance the confidence of the project team and project stakeholders, maintain effective communication with the project stakeholders, and ensure that what is done is effective.
3. Keep the regular update plan (note that the plan is not changed at will), keep the risk list updated continuously, and train the project team members to make it competent.
