#12 Don’t do too much parallel
During project execution we will face challenges that things don’t go like they were planned. We then tend to find ways to optimize the progress.. These include strategies like adding more resources, but be careful, typical elementary school math question: if one musician plays a song in 5 min, how long does it take if you add 4 more, not 1 min.. it still remains 5 min and if they want to play it proper they need some preparation time! Beginning already with the next step, even though the step before is not fully finished is complex. Like multitasking, this seems to be on the first glance a good way, especially when you have more people or different teams working on different steps. But like multitasking the coordination of these activities make things more complex and the overhead in coordinating and controlling these tasks eat up much of the benefits and make things riskier. If you can avoid, then go step by step, finish each step on time and diligently.
It’s like always a fully unscripted recording !
