There has been a lot of assumption. ‘Oh, everybody knows’ what the objectives are here. - Sacha Connor
We've asked team members, ‘Do you know what the objectives are of this project team?’ and usually we get like 90% saying, yes, I know. Then we'll ask, ‘Do you agree with the objectives of this project team?’ And usually we'll get pretty high response on that as well. - Sacha Connor
And then we'll say 'Please list the top three objectives of this project team.' And you'll see wildly different, interpretation of what the project goals are. - Sacha Connor
Let's get aligned to what the goals are so that we can actually make progress against them. - Sacha Connor
Try it with your teams.
Have them write down and rank order, the project's objectives.
The results may surprise you.
Sacha will be sharing more tips and tricks, insight and experience on a panel at Running Remote in Austin with Darren Murph, Lauren DeYoung, and Karrah Phillips.
