How To Succeed In Project Management
(when it's not part of your job title)
Thu 4 July, 1.25pm
In this session Kate discussed some of the trickier bits of managing a digital project – and what you can do to make it easier.
Managing a project is hard work. And often something that comes your way regardless of how much project management experience you have.
Whether it’s managing a new website build, new features on an existing website, a brochure print-run, or a new membership scheme, you’ll be dealing with lots of people in various roles. Managing up, communicating change, and working with experts will all be part of the process.
In this session, we looked at the stakeholders you might be working with, and how you can get buy-in while making sure your project runs smoothly.
🧡 Great for anyone who feels a bit nervous about project management – or if you'd just like a bit of reassurance and a confidence boost!
Templates and resources
We've pulled together some of our favourite project management templates, and resources from our website:
👉 Survey
Great for collecting thoughts and ideas at the start of a project.
👉 Project Status Document:
Word download / Google Doc link
Great for keeping track of progress and sharing updates.
👉 Decision Log:
Excel download / Google Sheets link
Great for keeping track of decisions throughout the project.
👉 Project Retrospective:
Word download / Google Doc link
Sometimes called a 'retro', these are great for reviewing your project, thinking about what went well, what could have gone better – and what you've learned that can be taken into any future projects.
👉 Need a hand?
In this online session, you'll chat through any project management challenges you have, from how to structure a project, putting a brief together or managing stakeholders.
