Igniting a Project for Success
by Tiffany Dahlberg   Tip of the Month
Alarmingly, 78% of projects fail to meet their original goals. The importance of initiating projects is often underestimated, yet this vital first step usually predicts the project's success. Thankfully, there are tools to help prevent misunderstandings, wasted efforts, and potential catastrophes during projects.

When initiating a project, be sure to follow these steps:
1. Define Scope & Deliverables
2. Analyze the Impact, Assumptions, and Risks of the project
3. Identify Stakeholders & Related Activities
4. Clarify Resources, Roles, and Responsibilities
By including this information in a project charter, you will have an efficient and effective tool that ignites your project for success.
