Project review under control
Who hasn't attended a project meeting without an agenda? Who hasn't walked out of a steering committee meeting without a clear project decision? How do you organize a project review?
Monday morning, 9.45am, your diary sends you a reminder notification. You open the invitation: subject "project review", Athena room, starts in 15 minutes, ... But what about the list of projects discussed? What about the arbitrations to be carried out? And, above all, how can you be sure that the project review will not actually end at that time?
Léonce's project teams know all about the syndrome of poorly organized project committee meetings! But one day, at the start of yet another project review, the meeting began with a completely different twist. A well-established agenda! Attentive and concerned participants! And clear decisions recorded live! Their first project review with Project Monitor ? That deserves a "like"!
Project review with Project Monitor
What is a successful project review? A meeting that contributes effectively to project success. This means..:
- Review the projects requiring this collective time - and only the projects requiring it. To find out, you need the keys to setting the agenda (business theme, project situation, project organization).
- Optimize meeting time. A project review is far from free. The more participants there are, the more expensive even the smallest unnecessary minute becomes. That's why you need to have all the information and decision-making tools at your disposal during the meeting.
- Make the right decisions and trade-offs. For this to be possible, subjects need to be prepared in advance of the meeting. And it's best to draw up and share the record of decisions straight from the meeting.
"Our project points have been reduced from 3 hours to 1 hour by integrating Project Monitor into our management processes." Jean-Pierre Warion, Manager of the Micro-Computing and Messaging Division at CIO Würth
