In today’s project landscape, a prevalent issue that hampers success is the lack of proper structure. It’s a common sight to witness projects, brimming with top-notch talent, grappling to find their footing.
Allow me to illustrate with a real-life scenario from our own experiences. One of our crucial projects fell victim to a misstep in resourcing. An individual who had no direct involvement with the project made a crucial resourcing decision. Regrettably, this decision proved to be detrimental, derailing the project’s momentum and progress.
Furthermore, another valuable lesson we learned firsthand was the impact of placing a skilled resource in an ill-fitting role. Even if the resource possesses commendable abilities, if their role is not aligned with their strengths, it can deal a fatal blow to the project’s prospects.
In order to ensure project triumph, it is imperative that we address these challenges head-on and foster an environment where proper structure and role alignment are given due consideration. Only then can we truly unlock the full potential of our talented teams and pave the way for project success.
