Tips on how to be a better Project Manager
During my June IT conference, I have attend a 30 mins sharing session which I never regret attended sharing on the Project Management topic. One of my company's best and most experience PM actually lead the session. In my working experience he is the best and most approachable PM I ever met. He never show his anger, always cool and very dilligent and clear in his instructions. Really learnt a lot from him. Share some of the tips here (due to copyright issues I cannot share the whole training here but just pointers) as I promised my friend PT.

Successful PM approach:

•Project Success is the only acceptable conclusion
•Compose a Project Team
–make sure all necessary “core competencies” are involved/consulted
•Communicate (early) project objectives, duration and interruptions to all effected parties
•Create a detailed and sequenced task list (make/update templates for common projects)
–This list must be sufficiently detailed to insure you that if followed success will result
•Study and know the strengths and weaknesses of each project contributor
–This knowledge will govern how you interact with each team member
•Work the list
–Insure each project contributor clearly understands his role and tasks
–Ask questions and follow up until acceptable and timely answers are received
–Work the project from your task list
–Continue to regularly communicate project status to interested and effected parties
•Project Review and Update Template/Plan with lessons learned

Points to note:

•Everybody is a PM . . . Your biggest and most important project is “MANAGING Yourself ”
•Every Task is actually a Small Project – tasks require an iterative process of . . .
–Planning
–Information gathering
–Execution
–Communication
•Planning is contagious
•People (even professionals) are notoriously poor personal managers
•People (even professionals) are notoriously poor planners
•People (even professionals) are notoriously poor communicators
