Top Product Delivery Best Practices
Ensuring you have the right people on your project team
Think about this for a moment. What if you have a team working on your project, but one of those people doesn’t really care about the project’s outcome?
Not only that, what if they actually work against the project’s best interest?
If you have such people in your team, then your project will fail. So it’s critical to make sure that you have the right people on your team.
Ask the right questions
Before hiring someone on your team, make sure you ask them questions.
For example, if your project requires expertise from an accountant, then before hiring them, ask them how they would approach certain accounting issues. If their answers are not satisfactory or inadequate, then hire someone else.
Ask for references
This is another powerful strategy that can help us make sure that we have the right people on our projects. Here is how it works: find out what other companies this person worked for and contact their references.
Then, find out how the person performed in each company. And make sure that they will be able to deliver in your company as well. This may sound time-consuming, but it is worth it.
Once you have made sure that you have the right people on your team, make sure that they are accountable for their actions. You can do this by creating expectations for each role and establishing checkpoints.
Establishing clear expectations for each role
When running a project, it can be difficult to clearly define what each member of the team needs to do.
As a result of this confusion, members of the team may feel unsure about their tasks and responsibilities. This can lead to unwanted problems and delays. Especially during the project’s lifecycle.
So in order to avoid these problems, it’s critical to clearly define each member’s role. If a member of your team has any questions regarding his/her role or responsibility, they should feel comfortable asking you or other members of the project team.
Keeping everyone accountable
No matter how good a plan we have in place, things rarely go as expected. There are always things that go wrong.
So in order to avoid these problems, we need to be proactive. We need to make sure that we have checkpoints in place.
If you have members who are not delivering as expected, you need to take action. If a team member isn’t delivering, remove them from the team.
Now, this doesn’t mean that you should fire them. But by removing them from the team, you will make sure that they won’t be able to slow down your project or harm its outcome.
If you establish clear expectations for each member and hold each team member accountable for their actions, then your project is bound to succeed.
We’ve covered all the best practices listed above in great detail. So you can get a thorough understanding of all these techniques and implement them in your projects!
