Common Mistakes of Project Managers

Typical Project Management Mistakes

 

As usual, it happens, that many projects are criticized for poor planning, management and imposition of unrealistic projections of cost and time. The cause of these problems or mistakes is the lack of communication through different levels of a project team. But communication barrier is just one of the many possible errors that might prevent you.

Typical Project Management Mistakes

This article discusses the most common mistakes in project management:

1. Assigning resources to the wrong projects: the matching of resources to projects is one of the most important elements in project management and it is a crucial phase for success. This process should be based on skills of people, who work on this project, in order to make it possible to achieve established goals and expectations.

2. The project manager lacks the necessary experience: it is really difficult to manage a project, and it's even harder if the project Manager has no experience to invest in the project. The experience of holding meetings on project status, risk management and dealing with project stakeholders is critical to the successful development and execution of the project.

3. Not asking for help: If you don't know something, you have to ask for help. The leader of the project which costs $1,000,000 must put aside pride and reach out to others. You don't have to know everything about everything, so don't be afraid to stop and ask for help. Arrogance can greatly harm your reputation.

4. Poor scheduling: a schedule is of great importance to ensure no overruns on the project. It also indirectly affects subsequent projects. However, this situation may occur if the project manager sets unrealistic time schedule for projects. To avoid a chain reaction, the project Manager should establish a timetable to ensure the availability of sufficient time to achieve the project objectives while guaranteeing its high quality. Project Management Mistakes

5. I am the head: the project Manager should not interfere with his design team, but this situation is common in organizations. Group members probably know the most about the impending difficulties or problems with the project because of their daily active participation. Following the principle of "I am the head", the project manager can lead the project to failure.

6. Underestimation: before it will start it is necessary to assign sufficient resources to the project, along with time and budget. You need to think realistic and don't underestimate your needs from the start.
