meeting pitfall

No attention to people management

Way to improve Actually, this point is similar to the first one where communication was described. Speak to your colleagues, remind everyone how his or her role is important for successful project fulfilment without project management pitfalls.

A poorly created project plan

Ways to improve Do not even try to manage projects without a made up in advance plan. Be aware that it should answer the following questions: why?, what?, who? and when? If something goes wrong, it may lead to pitfalls and project scope creep that implies uncontrolled changes and growth of initially planned scope.

Lack of trust and delegation

Ways to improve To avoid this pitfall in project management, a manager can delegate tasks to people who will do their best to accomplish them. Moreover, trust and delegation has a psychological impact on participants. They boost morale and everyone feels like a part of a team and not just gears in a complicated device. Listen to your people and consider their opinion.

Lack of breaking down projects into smaller tasks

Way to improve To avoid these pitfalls in project management, divide all work into pieces with clear short-term time limits, clear objectives and tools to perform them. Thus you create atmosphere where team members feel comfortable about manageable tasks and time limits

Unclear roles, responsibilities and deliverables

Ways to improve Hold a meeting at the very beginning where all expectations and overall course will be set. Put all critical information down in a project scope statement. You are free to refer to this document at any project stage when there is a need to clarify things and not to let everything go in the wrong direction.

Poor communication

Ways to improve Choose proper channels of communication. If you create a chat in a messenger, make sure everyone involved is presented there. Or if you need to have instant communication, do not write emails as it is time consuming and ineffective for quick conversation. Do not forget about conversation face to face. Hold meetings on a regular basis and choose the right way to speak to your colleagues.
