Execution & Project Management
Here are a few things we have learned, forgotten and then re-learned over the years:
Functional expertise and project management expertise are not the same thing.
Believing you are a project manager and having auditable, measurable skills in project management are not the same thing.
Having auditable, measurable project management skills and being able to present project work as an opportunity rather than a burden or threat are not the same thing.
Understanding the factors which influence human choices, behaviour and energy in projects is key to securing human support for projects
Project sponsors, managers and contributors need more than project management capabilities to be effective. They need rapid adaption skills to help them make prioritize, make decision, solve problems, manage risk and optimize human performance in the context of projects.
Objectivity Consulting has nearly two decades of experience defining, planning, executing and refining complex projects across industries, functions and geographies. We have thousands of hours experience training and coaching project managers in core and related project management capabilities.
We help organizations, teams and individuals define, structure and enhance programs and projects, including (but not limited to):
Project Inception - what needs does this project need to meet? What will it take to deliver? How do we approach the go/no go decision? How do we define project scope to ensure that the corect objectives and outcomes will be delivered?
Project Design - What work is required? What resources and investment will be necessary? What is the optimal sequence for work to be done, and by whom? What internal and external risk factors threaten project success, and how will they be addressed?
Project Management - we provide turnkey project management solutions, supporting you and your organization on part or all aspects of project design and execution.
Project Troubleshooting - when projects are missing key Time, Cost or Performance parameters we troubleshoot to identify cause and equip managers and contributors with the skills needed to accelerate and enhance problem solving, decision making, risk management and human performance in the context of the project.
