This is really informative! Thank you. I'm a newbie PM (transportation sector). How would i go about coming up with assumptions?
You are welcome!
Check this video it cover a bit about assumptions: ua-cam.com/video/7YdEQs2WA4s/v-deo.html
🍏'31can u suggest what's the best template to use for a hypothetical project, I'm a newbie and a budding PM. Thank you.
A project charter template? Then, use the one I propose in this video. Just follow the same structure.
Just to clarify, there's no such thing as a template for the whole project. As a project manager, you have to build a PM approach suitable for your project and industry. But with that said, you should be using tested and proven processes and tool. You should not invent the wheel:)
Hi do we write the same project charter for Agile project?
Hello,
Good question. I most cases, I would say, yes. Project Charter is all about what customer will get in the end. So, the idea stays the same. But depending on how versed the customer with agile approach, you should consider to mention that it's all sprint by sprint basis and they have a say when to stop and go live.
