Manage Your Project Portfolio, 2nd Edition

Now Try This

• Look at your mission now, whether you are a technical lead, a manager, a middle manager, or a senior manager. Is it actionable? Does it say what’s in your purview and what’s not?

• If you have a mission at your level, make a date with your peers and develop your joint mission so you know how to work across a department or a whole organization.

• Test your mission to make sure you haven’t fallen into any traps.
