Great video! To answer your question: I fall under belief that the project report is there to be objective and hence don't believe in hiding any roadblocks or issues. It's a very good mechanism to get things out in the open for people to talk about.
I think the best nugget in the video is the fact that the report ultimately depends on things being sufficiently defined upfront. Early on I have struggled to write "project reports" when there wasn't a proper PM system in place. It just didn't make sense.
Why did you say the % complete is a useless metric?
Thanks for writing back and sharing your thoughts.
I think % complete is a useless metric because often a deliverable gets stuck at 90% done and than take much more time than initially estimated. It would be a different story if you report % of initial estimate use and be able to go beyond 100% to show the overrun.
@@ITProjectManagers I fully agree. We've all been there when the project goes from 0-90% smoothly and gets stuck at 90% for eternity. Thanks for calling this out.
@@thedataprojectmanager5713 Yes, exactly. True story on many projects:)
Do you work your project using scrum or any other Agile framework or hybrid or just full waterfall? Just curious
Most of the time it’s a hybrid approach. Plan-driven life cycle with main execution with scrum or kanban.
Strictly on point. Got some good ideas on how to improve my own status report on current project. Thanks for this superb guide!
Glad it was helpful!
great video Dimitri! Please make one video about salary negotiation and for quality assurance in IT! Many thanks!!
Great suggestion! Thanks! I’ll put them on the list.
Great! Also, can you make one video regarding the most difficult implementation that you have ever had in terms of integrations, reports, etc?
@@rickcrespo4022 Thanks, good ideas. I'll put them on my to do list.
Many thanks Dimitri. Looking forward to it
