During our Project Management trainings, we have asked trainees:
"Why do projects fail?"
Here is a summary of the answers to the question:
- Goals not clearly defined
- Unclear who is running the project
- Goals are unrealistic
- Scope creep
- Project not well planned
- Project not well executed
- Misunderstanding of Roles & Responsibilities
- Team lacked direction
- Team lacked motivation
- Poor assumptions
- Lack of risk assessment and management
- Lack of budget or human resources
- Poor planning
- Poor communication
Projects seldomly fail because of technology.They fail because of people.
Because we are human beings...
As you can see in the answers above, the vast majority of project failures could have been avoided.
Just by applying basic Project Management Techniques like:
- Planning Management
- Communication Management
- Stakeholder Management
- Risk Management
All these are essential during the project lifecycle because it gives confidence that your project is under control.
That you know what could go wrong and you have answers ready when potential problems become issues.
There are no projects running 100% errorless. Because we are humans.
But there is a major difference between projects that run blind and those having managed challenges and opportunities.
And that is exactly where we can help!
