The Value of Project Management Training for Media Professionals

1/3/2017

PictureFlickr user Highway Patrol Images

Have you ever experienced a shortage of personnel to do a newsroom project because your top videographers are working on a special something for another department? Ever had to find a new vendor to fulfill a social media project hours before the client’s deadline?

Then you know what a project-nightmare feels like, and you NEVER, EVER want to go there again. 


​Media and communication professionals across journalism, social media, marketing communication, and media relations might want to give strong consideration to enrolling in project management courses to strengthen their effectiveness to plan, to work across the organization, to solve problems, and to increase their value at work.
​

In other words, this will give you the strategic advantage. 
Whether you are in a traditional work setting or are an independent contractor working remotely in a home-office, project management training will reap rich rewards.

Essential Hard Skills

  1. You will learn the importance of project management processes such as initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing.
  2. You will understand the benefits of work breakdown structures –WBS--(i.e., the assignment board in the newsroom or the client’s email detailing the project).
  3. You will find out why risk management is important.

Must-Have Soft Skills

  1. You will obtain information to strengthen your communication skills.
  2. You will develop solid team-building insights.
  3. You will study negotiation and motivation tips.

How I Received Project Management Training

In February 2013, I earned the Project+ certification from CompTIA, an information technology trade association. The journey started in May 2012 when my Workforce Solutions Greater Dallas caseworker introduced me to project management training to help me with career options as a result of the economic downturn. In fact, the Workforce Investment Act paid for the training at New Horizons Computer Learning Center in Irving, Texas.

After passing the Project+ exam and completing all of the training that I could get at New Horizons, I can honestly say it was worth it. The training gave me a more strategic, growth-oriented mindset. And, it enhanced my problem-solving abilities across corporate and small business settings. Finally, my communication planning and management skills grew.

Do you think project management is important to learn? Share your thoughts in the comments, please.

Project managers have a lot to be thankful for, even though “an attitude of gratitude” is more challenging to embrace some days than others. 

With Thanksgiving days away, project managers can increase their gratitude and ultimately their effectiveness throughout the year, with these five tips:

Your Ability To Be 'Nimble' Often Determines Future Success

"Jack Be Nimble" from http://rockhousefarm.co.uk/play/play.html
Such thinking stops you from moving forward; yet, the desire to learn a foreign language persists. In fact, the longer you delay taking action, the stronger the idea becomes.


Let’s say you want to learn a foreign language because you know it will help you and your organization.

Every day life offers similar golden nuggets of wonderful possibilities to expand and improve. Just as the nursery rhyme “Jack Be Nimble” indicates, the ability to “jump” or move quickly is essential to success, happiness and, ultimately, survival.

1. Create a Positive Mental Framework for Success

When opportunities present themselves, we may not initially perceive them as such. Using the foreign language example above—suppose these thoughts flood your mind:

  • “I don’t have time.”
  • “My plate is already full.”
  • “How long will it take to become proficient?”


Such thinking stops you from moving forward; yet, the desire to learn a foreign language persists. In fact, the longer you delay taking action, the stronger the idea becomes.

Finally, you decide to research your options. Let’s say you discover numerous ways you can begin learning the foreign language (using a digital mind map) such as: Quizlet, an online class, borrowing resources from your library branch and listening to audio programs in the car. You discover a team member is fluent in the language you want to learn and willing to tutor you for a reasonable fee.


Or, you can go a class at a community college or your neighbor’s cousin has a good friend who is a foreign language instructor, along with a treasure trove of other options. Suddenly, you have 10 different methods to learn the foreign language and you are sharing your goals everywhere.

This generates even MORE possibilities to achieve your foreign language goals!

Now that you are opening your mind to the opportunity, a waterfall of options is pouring over you. You are SO excited about learning the foreign language and ready to get started. Suddenly, you’re already dreaming of becoming a translator!

What changed?

Your thinking.

2.  ‘Begin With the End in Mind’

Dr. Stephen Covey, the beloved and celebrated late author of the breakthrough business manual “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People,” generated a global breakthrough and whirlwind when his book debuted in 1989.  Habit 2 is “Begin With the End in Mind.”

Covey writes that this habit “is based on the principle that all things are created twice. There’s a mental or first creation, and a physical or second creation to all things.”

“… To the extent to which we understand the principle of two creations and accept the responsibility for both, we act within and enlarge the borders of our Circle of Influence. To the extent to which we do not operate in harmony with this principle and take charge of the first creation, we diminish it,” according to the book.

Now that you are ecstatic about learning the foreign language, ask yourself: What does success look like? What results do I want to achieve?

Defining “the end” by capturing your thoughts in writing enhances your capacity to achieve your goals. It’s been proven scientifically that writing goals, works.

 3. Be Nimble

The “Jack Be Nimble” nursery rhyme demonstrates the value of speed and the importance of project management (didn’t see that one coming, did you?) in achieving your goals.

Nimble means “able to move quickly, easily and lightly.” Now, take a look at the image of Jack jumping over the candle.

Let’s view the candle as the desire to learn a foreign language. Taking action quickly and moving forward to achieve your written goals will accelerate your progress. Doubtless, you will face challenges along the way (that candle is hot, of course). So, you have to have a plan covering how often you will study and factoring in how you will overcome challenges. Write down the prize for all of your efforts—be sure to document that in the plan.

Whatever challenges you face--have no fear. You are equipped and committed to ACHIEVING your goals.

Improve Stakeholder Engagement Starting With These 5 Steps

8/13/2014

0 Comments

 
Image_Stakeholders
Image by Flickr user MediaEthicsareFun
Key stakeholders can make or break your project and your organization, especially if they are not included at the beginning of new endeavors. Operating in silos and not communicating with stakeholders can lead to failure, which brings a high price tag.

 A stakeholder is anyone who can impact your project or organization, either internally or externally, from a positive or negative perspective. Some stakeholders have more interest or influence than others so it’s important to get to know your stakeholders and learn more about their concerns and needs, as early as possible.


Why?

Stakeholders bring risk to a project. The quicker you determine whether it is positive or negative, the faster you can document and plan for the risk. 

And, their ideas, issues and inquiries matter. Don’t miss out on this valuable data.

Do you know who your stakeholders are? You should if you want the project to be a success. Remember, stakeholders include employees, customers and others.

Being proactive by creating a thoughtful and responsible plan to build stakeholder engagement takes time and resources. Successful organizations START with these five steps:

1. Begin with the end in mind

Listed as Habit 2 in visionary author Stephen Covey’s “7 Habits of Highly Effective People,” it’s an excellent launching pad beyond personal leadership. Determine in advance how you want the stakeholder relationship to conclude. Set that intention in writing and ensure key stakeholders understand your end game.

2. Learn your key stakeholders’ communication preferences

Do they prefer regular updates via text messages?  Perhaps they want face-to-face meetings or  telephone calls? Or, none of the above. Once you know the answers, upload this research into your stakeholder plan to ensure you and your team follow through. 

Be sure to learn how often stakeholders expect updates about the project or changes and add that data to your plan. Then follow the plan.

3. Discover your stakeholders’ expectations

What motivations are driving your stakeholders? Do you know their end games?

When you have the answers to these and other questions, you will be on your way toward a “relationship.”

4. Invite your key stakeholders to the project launch

Can you invite the stakeholders who are intensely interested or have high influence/high impact to a launch event or kickoff party? If so, it’s a great way to ensure agreement about the deliverables. It’s much smarter to get stakeholders’ input and feedback EARLY in the process than rather two days before the deadline.

Make the project launch inclusive by using the research you gathered earlier. These high-touch demonstrations show your stakeholders they are valued.

5. Prepare for change requests and have a plan to address them

Your stakeholders will suggest changes and how you handle them will be critical to the success of the relationship. Listening is essential.

Finally, as the saying goes, “People will support what they help create.” By being proactive in identifying and working with your stakeholders, together, you build mutual success!

The Value of Creating a Lessons Learned System for Project Management Success

7/20/2014

2 Comments

 

Image_projectfailureImage from faculty.washington.edu, http://goo.gl/PqMtya
The author of Social Media for Project Managers, Elizabeth Harrin, is a strong believer in documenting lessons learned.

Lessons learned capture what went right and wrong with a project. These documents are invaluable for future project planning and smart organizations adhere to this Project Management Institute best practice.

Harrin's blog creatively tackled the issue of sharing lessons learned in this post, Five ways for project managers to share lessons learned.

She recommends setting up a wiki to archive lessons learned and stresses the importance of READING the lessons learned to avoid "making the same mistakes again."

What exactly should be included in a lessons learned document?

"To be as valuable as possible, lessons learned should cover three areas: Technical aspects of the project ... Project management ... [and] Management ... ," according to Rita Mulcahy's PMP® Exam Prep, 8th edition.

A critical element of lessons learned is improving future projects. You may find value in this blog post, Getting Real with Lessons Learned
by Bernadine Douglas, PMP, on the Voices on Project Management blog.

8 Parallels Between Journalism and Project Management

7/31/2013

4 Comments

 
PictureImage by Flickr user IvanWalsh.com
I attempted to pass the Project Management Professional certification *exam and didn’t. About failing the test: several people have shared that they also didn’t pass the PMP certification on their first attempt, so there’s that.

However, I came away with some insights about the study of project
management
and how it relates to my journalism and communications background that may be helpful to my blog readers.

First, I saw the connections between news and project management, 
between the “rundown” used in broadcast news and the “budget” generally found in print newsrooms and that of the project charter. In project management, the project charter is the official document that says someone (known as a sponsor) is paying for work to be completed by a certain deadline. Each project needs a project charter, a project manager as well as a team to do the work, of course.

In news, the rundown or the budget documents the stories being
planned for that day’s newspaper or newscast. In other words, the budget and the rundown are the official documents showing the lineup for each day's news product.

Second, a work breakdown structure, which is used to plan the project's activities, is similar to a storyboard in broadcast. The WBS is a graphical representation of the project broken down into work packages based on the information available. The storyboard allows you to visualize the show, the  movie or even the commercial as it’s supposed to appear.

Third, iteration (repeat planning) happens a lot in project management as plans change or new information becomes available, just like in news, when there’s breaking news or an error must be corrected. Both project management and journalism are iterative. The planning continues until the news product is published or broadcast and until the deliverable has been accepted by the customer. 

Fourth, then the project is formally closed with all lessons learned
documented and archived to aid future projects. In news, photos, scripts, past stories, court records, lawsuits, obituaries, interviews, reporters’ notes and sometimes audio/video outtakes are saved for future news packages or investigative purposes. Depending on your journalism landscape, they are saved in the morgue, the library or the database (SharePoint site), etc.

Fifth, the project manager's title is similar to that of the executive editor (print) and the news director (broadcast). The project manager is in charge of the team and is faced with getting the project completed in a timely fashion, while keeping an eye on the money and the organization's business objectives. The editor and the news director are overseeing the production of a daily news product and battling to stay fiscally above water.

Sixth, stakeholders are everywhere and they can make or break a project. I was especially fascinated by the stakeholder power/interest matrix that should be completed early in the project planning process. Why? Because successful project management involves identifying all the stakeholders, their interests as well as their preferred communications methods.

Those communications’ preferences are expected to be documented in a communications plan, according to project management protocol. In the news business, stakeholders are online, in front of the TV screen, in the newsroom editing audio or in a nearby editing bay feverishly cutting video for a live shot five minutes away, in the sales department, in Creative Services, in the car listening to radio simulcasts, or using a digital recorder to report from a three-alarm fire at 2 in the morning. The news director and the editor have to respond to their stakeholders promptly and professionally if they want their news product to be successful.

Seventh, both project management and journalism have a monitor and control process. In news, it's called copy editors (print) or producers (broadcast).  The producer & copy editor are responsible for ensuring the accuracy /integrity of the news product and that the show runs on time. They do fact checks and verify the source's name is correct. They are concerned with attribution (what source said the mayor has been charged with the crime or whatever).  And money, least I forget that: they check figures and review reporters' math.

 In project management, the monitor and control process, under the project manager's reign, focuses on keeping the project on budget, within scope and that risks are monitored and controlled, among other knowledge areas. 

Finally, like journalism, project management requires the ability to make decisions fast, change direction quickly or even close  (cancel) a failing project. Similarly, their overall shared goal is achieving customer (stakeholder) satisfaction.

 P.S.  I actually enjoyed the computer-based *testing process (sounds odd, I know) because once I settled in, the exam provided a lot of information about learning styles and the value of lifelong education. Hmmm, maybe there’s a way to marry project management and journalism/communications/social media/PR?
