Steps in tracking Project progress

Create a project outline

n

When working with team members, it is great to have a project timeline since it is easy to track the project’s progress. Each member can give input to meet realistic project goals and learn what is expected of them individually and as group members.

Establishing goals and milestones

n

It is good to consider employee’s specific skillsets first. This way, you can assign tasks to an individual with better know-how on the study. Because it creates a better sense when holding them accountable. Setting up goals and milestones is a better way to meet team satisfaction even when implementing smaller goals and milestones.


n

Check them regularly

n

Having quick talks at the beginning of the work sessions keeps the manager updated, and the workers have a sense of belonging. This helps the project run smoothly because it is easier to understand when a certain employee is having trouble reaching their goals and helping them.

Establish clear deadlines

n

When measuring progress, keeping the end goal in sight is helpful. Being clear about deadlines helps workers to stay on track and complete tasks on time. It makes tracking the project progress easier while sticking to the schedule.

As a manager, if you’re asking everyone to track their progress, there can’t be any exceptions to the rule. The problem with having exceptions is if you give even one person some leeway of not tracking their progress. Everyone else will notice, and they’ll avoid caught on reporting any progress at all. So make it known that tracking progress is a mandatory activity for all team members. Just like how you set goals for yourself and track them to make sure you achieve the same goes for your projects and your team. Don’t forget to follow everything in the best way to be a more effective project manager.
