Cango: Project Management and Team
CanGo Analysis and Recommendations
After observing various CanGo meetings and CanGo personnel, we feel that there are several key issues facing CanGo, that could prohibit the company from growing positively and at a rate that is acceptable to the company. We have put together this analysis to provide CanGo with not just the issues facing you, but detailed recommendations on what to change and why it is important to do so.
The issues we would like to focus on at this time are:
1. Leadership
The key to a successful team is a good leader. The leader sets the standard, controls the morale and drives the progress of the team. Without adequate leadership, the team is merely a group of individuals doing their own jobs for their own advancement. The leader is the one who brings them together as a single unit and drives them to perform as such, not just for their own advancement, but for the advancement of the team as well as a driving force for the advancement of the company.
2. Goal Definition
It is necessary for a person or a team to know the specific goals in order to achieve them. Well-set goals provide focus. If the goals are too broad then direction can be lost; if too difficult then it may seem as though the goals are overwhelming and unachievable thus making the final project deliverable seem less likely to succeed.
3. Detailed Communication
The best laid plan will go nowhere if unable to communicate it to those needed to implement it. Communication is one of the most important skills needed not only within a team environment but in every aspect of business and interpersonal relationships.
4. Training
Employees cannot succeed if not given all of the tools. Training is a very important tool in the business toolbox. Teaching employees the basic functions of their roles can help them perform at a more superior level.
5. Team Work
For any project to be successful, the staff needs to pull together as a team. Goals and priorities
