7 Habits of Highly Effective Microsoft Project Users - Synergize


Synergize

“What is synergy? Simply defined, it means that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.  It means that the relationship which the parts have to each other is a part in and of itself” (from “7 Habits of highly effective people: Habit 6 Synergize – Stephen R. Covey”).

Once all the pieces of the schedule have been put together properly and in line with industry standards, it becomes greater than the sum of its parts.  It will now truly represent the actual project and enable the project manager to be proactive and provide executives with critical information for decision-making. 

If a project experiences delays or overruns, a proactive schedule will give early warning and help identify the best options for corrective actions, including the critical path, high cost tasks and quality issues on key deliverables.

Synergy on the project team will also allow team members to participate actively in any corrective action required.  Techniques, such as Crashing and Fast Tracking are much more successful with a synergistic project team and easier to apply in a proactive project schedule.
