Project Outlier’s Post

💡Information every week 📝 🍀 Setting boundaries represents a strategy for handling irrational expectations or requests from stakeholders. ✨ Establishing and conveying straightforward boundaries is essential to understanding stakeholders and communicating what is feasible given the project's scope, budget, and timeframe. 💫 Be adaptable yet firm, and demonstrate a willingness to consider other options that fit the demands of interested parties and the project's objectives. 🌱 Setting boundaries is about directing stakeholders toward what can be achieved successfully rather than about saying no. #Information_Every_Week #Business_Analysis #Strategic_Plan #Clear_Roadmap #Align_Expectations #Project_Success #Customer_Support #Customer_Satisfaction #Bulid_Trust #Effective_Communication #Empowering_Stakeholders #Effective_Negotiation

"Senior executives best serve their projects by keeping benefits at the centre of their decision-making processes, not by enforcing the delivery of a specific asset." Great article from Parbery on how to see beyond the 'things' and to the benefits as an Exec overseeing programs and projects. I recommend taking a look at the practical tips on applying a benefits-driven approach at all stages of the project lifecycle. #DecisionMaking #Leadership #ProjectManagement #Benefits

😬 A few weeks ago I disclosed a project manager whoopsie. I facilitated a client kickoff meeting that went sideways and it was my fault. How's it going now? Great! Here are some suggestions from my recent experience to regain client trust and buy-in: 🔷 Take ownership of your mistake(s) 🔷 Offer a safe space to listen to how the client felt / is feeling 🔷 Show you've thought about how your mistake(s) impacted the relationship 🔷 Offer solutions to remedy the situation 🔷 Stick to the agreed upon solution(s) 🔷 Ensure the client knows they can come to you with any concerns in the future 🔷 Be flexible if the client says something isn't working for them 🔷 Lead with empathy Have you made a mistake impacting a client relationship? What was the outcome and how did you remedy the situation? #mistakeshappen #accountability #empathy #clientrelationships #projectmanagement #clienttrust #clientbuyin #flexibilitymatters #safespace #kickoff #meetingfacilitation

Exciting times! Thrilled to share that I've recently welcomed two new clients on board. Grateful for the opportunity to collaborate and contribute to their success 🏅 The emotions I’ve been through the last few weeks have been crazy🤯. From excitement at setting up on my own, to self doubt and nervousness at putting myself out there and then elation at securing my first client within two weeks and the second two weeks later!! 😊❤️ My original goal was to have one client by Christmas, that has now changed to have three by the end of the year 🤞 #smallbusiness #projectmanagement #businesssupport
