Gaining Team Alignment Early Improves Odds for Implementation Success
Agreement on Project Definition and Scope is an Accelerator
IMA’s work with a widely diverse range of project teams across multiple industries provides learning on opportunities for implementation improvement. One of the most common areas for improvement we see is in ensuring team alignment early in the project life cycle. On the surface, one would expect that a new team would come together with a common vision of the end goal, but this is very often not the case. In fact, IMA consultants consistently note that the lack of team alignment around a common definition of the change is the most sub-optimized step in project implementation.
