WEEKLY BLOG-ANDY W#02
Hi … Finally I could access to the blog. Honestly I never work in on website whether blog or group or workspace until AACE course introduce me to work on it. I was wondering why my wife is so exciting browsing the internet. Now I could feel it … quite exciting .. guys to learn something new in other world than Mining.
Looking at how each PM work on project plan and program manager run the organization, I would say that the project leaders want to get better things but still be disorganized. The way I’m concerned that the organization is not run into role hierarchy level as per stated in the organization structure due to there is not clear role and accountability either group leaders and individual team in the organization. We should follow the hierarchy level process to manage the organization as well as develop communication such program manager supervise PMs and PM supervise the project team. There are some communications from project leaders to get feed back or review is going directly to the all people instead through the PM’s team work and result just a few or none people response due to we have not defined clearly the accountability of each individual in the organization role and ensure that individual comments will not firmed well instead of through PM’s team review. It is ensured each individual commitment is still not performed yet but the effective way how to start to encourage each individual’s commitment is run through the organization hierarchy structure, role and accountability.
Honestly, it is fair enough when the Customer from hell reject the project plan due to we have not gone through as solid team work. Each individual team is not recognized to contribute on making project plan. Some PM’s are not worked with an assignment team who support him to develop quality plan instead to sent through all individual team to review but none person give feed back. As project control team we work together in manner that the deliverable output is reviewed by project control team prior it publish to all program team to have a feed back. Ensure, the project control task was initiated by PM at the first week and as a team we still not clear what assignment task need to do instead of review what was deliverable by PM. However, we learn and improve on second week that as a team we need to have clearly assignment task of project plan who supposed do what in regards budget, schedule, calculate risk, format report, etc to accomplish the project plan. Other, it is important in regards to accomplish project plan and schedule as we separate away by a distance that communication team need to develop intensively whether where and when each individual team is available to assist PM to do the work. As project control team I consider that the project control team is just going to go at performing stage but the overall program we are still at forming stage.
Very nicely written, but only PART of what I am looking for each week. You did a nice job reflecting on what you have observed during the past 2 weeks, but you didn't make any connection between what you are learning and your day to day work.
Is there anything you see happening in our Transformer Team that you also see in your working environment? If yes, what have you/are you learning that can help fix that?
Assuming you were in the role of the GM or Country Manager of your firm, what CHANGES would you make? Assuming you were hired as a management consultant to your firm, what CHANGES would you recommend management make to fix the problems you are seeing?
