MORE with less...
Too often the expectation is
that you’ll do more projects with less staff, less budget –
in the same or shorter time frame. Meanwhile, the pipeline
is clogged, people are burnt out, and nobody knows where to
begin. Given the current economy (and cutbacks), this
situation could get even worse.
But what if this phrase meant more throughput with
less in the pipeline? Or more results with
less rigidity? Organizations that have re-thought their
pipeline, portfolio and project management systems are, in
fact, seeing dramatic improvements in the bottom line. By
reducing the number of projects, using agile approaches, and
effectively sharing resources across teams, they are able to
achieve remarkable growth without increasing costs. Morale
is high.
How did they
do it? How can you?...more
