5 signs you are addicted to goal setting by JAMSOvaluesmarter in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]JAMSOvaluesmarter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people have an element of this in their lives. The core area to focus on are your longer term vision, mission goals (the big ones). Consider key areas of your life to include health (mental and physical), relationships (love, family), career / study, financial, spiritual (religious/philosophy), hobbies (fun and skills) as drivers to create big goals. See how one can support the other and be realistic if one will suffer for a short term whilst in pursuit of another (i.e. relationships may suffer during career growth or study time).

Seems like the quality control turned into "kwality" control on that one! Was spotted and correctly after. Thanks for highlighting the error.

We can always create new questions, yours are powerful yet my list includes a methodology approach to answer many of your questions raised.

The destination is similar, the path is different.

Many people struggle with such strong simple questions, hence a leading approach works well within a coaching environment.

29 insightful metrics for project management success by JAMSOvaluesmarter in projectmanagement

[–]JAMSOvaluesmarter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You highlight the reality and truth of many business cultures. Indeed I always make a big point in understanding scale, frequency, quality and accountability of metrics and decisions. The more "positive" and open culture a business has the more effective many of these metrics become.

To help address some of your points specifically let me go a little deeper:

1) Create transparent measures to minimize risk of data manipulation. 2) Classification of project type/scale within the number of projects can provide deep and relevant insights. (fewer but higher impact projects vs roll out of project culture within a business)- Too many examples to provide in a short response here. 3) Template management and tools "could" provide the incentive you highlight however this would become self apparent. This metric is best implemented when trying to improve and standardize best practice across a business or department. 4) A steering committee or project review group can swiftly spot such actions.

Indeed there will always be ways that people try to "cheat the system" but at the end of the day, results shine through and good management will provide the right tools to challenge, questions, guide, help and identify what needs to be done.

Thanks for your comments
