Useful techniques to fine-tune your project schedule One of the most common problems that project managers weep about is “unrealistic timelines,” a common consequence of clients having set their expectations too high even before the project starts.

In this situation, does the project manager shout foul and blame other people? Chances are, as a project manager, he needs to give the project schedule a second look.

RE: Useful techniques to fine-tune your project schedule Nice article! It really may help the unexperienced PM. But I miss the practice of "Resource Leveling". Bad resource leveling is one of the major reasons for unrealistic time-scheduling! If you assign one resource to 100% in the critical path without any slack, you must know, that you will miss the deadline!!! But I saw this in many time schedules. regards izento |

The secret to being a successful PM is evaluating, making changes, re-evaluating and making some more changes. If you are ever comfortable as a PM, then you aren't doing your job.
