You're juggling client requests and tight project deadlines. How do you decide what to prioritize?

Prioritise tasks with immediate deadlines from client to maintain absolute trust and satisfaction. Also, align the tasks with key project milestones to ensure a smooth progression and timely delivery of features.

If the client impact and priority of the request is not clear, bring the client along on the journey and collaborate. Create prioritization principles so that you can easily bucket items into them. It is fair for the client to request newer and higher priority items, but they have to understand there is always a cost whether that is time, money, or delay of a lower-priority-in-flight item. Do not be a "yes-person" and overpromise at the cost of your or your team's health.

To prioritize client requests and tight project deadlines, first assess the urgency and impact of each task. Focus on high-impact, high-urgency tasks that align with project goals. Communicate with clients to understand their needs and deadlines. Break larger tasks into smaller, manageable parts and delegate when possible. Use project management tools to track progress and deadlines. Regularly reassess priorities based on changing circumstances and feedback. By staying organized and flexible, you can effectively manage multiple demands and ensure timely project completion.

This is a very important step as you need to know the scope and like the article said you need to prioritize the importance of the different tasks to get the app built on a timely manner and what's important to the client like make the home page first, then you can build out the additional pages while the homepage is hosted and the client has something to direct costumers/clients to in the meantime.

Here’s how I decide what to prioritise- 1. Task that have a direct impact on client satisfaction and project deliverables. 2. Task have immediate deadlines and significant impact on project. 3. Address task have dependencies for other critical task to prevent bottlenecks. 4. Effective and Regular communicate with client and stakeholders to understand their expectations and priorities. 5. Regularly review your priority list and adjust based on any new changes in the project scope or deadlines.

Review and Adjust Regularly Daily Stand-ups: Conduct daily or weekly stand-ups to review progress, reassess priorities, and adjust plans as necessary. Flexibility: Be prepared to adjust priorities as new information or requests come in. Flexibility is key to managing dynamic project environments.
