Project Management

This morning Alison Low returned to teach us about Project Management.

Last time Alison came in she reminded us to talk about requirements so that everyone is on the same page and working together as a team. "What does 'done' look like?"

In project planning it is normal to work backwards from the end goal. What is needed to enable your end goal to be achieved? What order will these need to be achieved in?

The initial idea is usually really fun, however, to get there in the end you will need to go through a lot of hard work!

Each group were challenged to use sticky notes to write down every action that needs to be taken on the way to their end goal. They then put these into an order. Each group decided on a project manager and people who would take on each of the necessary tasks.

What a huge learning experience this morning has been. Thank you so much to Alison for your wonderful expertise that you bring to S'Mart Tank.
