One of My Favorite Things
I just noticed myself smiling. This is one of my favorite things - the way I develop plans and proposals. I love doing the research: finding best practices, looking for the latest guidance, reviewing my old text books, reviewing notes from interviewing team and technology experts, and more. I love filtering all of this for the golden nuggets and combining it with my own knowledge and experience, making this plan or proposal better than it ever could have been before.
Too many times people rush to just do the way they think it should be done, or, asking someone else to tell them how to do it, or, just doing things the way they have always been done.
The start of a project is an incredibly busy time, but also the best opportunity to do your best to set it up for success. Don't miss the chance to pull from various sources to start it off on the right foot.
