Many ventures never come to fruition due to missed deadlines hindering projects from moving forward, thereby never reaching their goal. It relates to any industry or service that utilizes various specialists to achieve its objective. Therefore, I will explain the importance of strategic management and why reasonable deadlines are essential for projects to develop smoothly through the various phases for a successful outcome.

Time management and proper leadership are crucial in coordinating any undertaking; therefore, an illustration detailing the order of different phases of the project’s development is fundamental since technology has afforded us the visuals for simplicity. However, the timeframe of each phase must be realistic; otherwise, you are setting yourself up for failure. In addition, each stage should have a deadline to prevent the delay of the following phase from commencing.

Problem-solving should be a team effort to maintain not only deadlines but also to form a working unity. If any phase encounters a glitch, it should be shared with all involved to collaborate in developing a solution. However, communication is vital. Before we offer solutions, we must learn to listen and ask questions. Cooperation is essential to deliberate all viewpoints to form a consensus before distinguishing the best solution to realize the goal and conserve time. Projects fail because they take on new directions during a crisis, losing sight of the main objective.

Therefore, keep your eye on the goal and maintain an open mind for innovative solutions through Communication, Collaboration, Cooperation, and Coordination.
