Project Management Tip: ASAP = Never

May 22nd, 2008

I've decided to completely axe "ASAP" from my project management vocabulary. It seems like anything attached to this term is guaranteed to end up on the back burner. I'm making a habit now of asking for a definite deadline for everything I do, and if the client doesn't know or says they don't care (that's a lie, every client cares), I set a timeline myself. It is WAY easier to manage multiple projects when you know exactly what you should be doing at all times.
