In this episode, you’ll learn how to choose which projects to execute on and the role of project management in getting them done.
Discussed in this episode:
The challenge is that we have many more ideas than we can ever get done
The hard part is to decide and curate which are the best for us
One screen or filter we can use is our values to see which projects match most or all of our values
Another tool is to create an x,y chart and plot the projects against resources needed and expected return
Resources can be time, investment, difficulty,
Recognize that you may be the bottleneck and allocate your time where it makes the most sense
Return can be money, reputation, or other outcomes you want to achieve
Projects need clear outcomes, high-level strategy, and do-able tactics
Plot work on a GANTT with who is responsible and dates required
Sometimes it help to work backwards from when you want to project completed
Work on one project at a time and defer the rest to later
Put important dates and your work in your calendar so you allocate the time for it
Set aside time to evaluate every project
