How to prioritize, create a better work ethic and working smarter.

You have an impossible project on the horizon? That means you will be putting in extra hours, marshaling your vast resources and calling on your staff to handle a job that normally takes two months to complete and finishing it inside of three weeks. Can you say stress? Yes, you can! You can also say the words “efficiency” and “smart” representing what you must do to get this project under your immediate control. There are ways for you to work smarter, not harder, as you make the seemingly impossible, possible. Please read on for five project managing tips on how to get this project done.

Prioritization

First things first. Before you tackle a project, you will need to sit down and quietly review what is at hand. Next, assemble a small team of managers to discuss what lies ahead. Then, plan out the steps necessary to complete the project. Use an outline to address every step along the way including the various review points that must be made. You will be dividing these responsibilities among your team later.
