Project Team (Week #4, Blog #1)

In our text in Chapter 17 it mentions there is three activities in the process of establishing teams. These are: 1)List team roles 2)List project tasks 3)Assign roles and responsibilities

All three of these are really important. It is important to first establish the possible team roles for the project. Such possible roles can include: the team leader and the roles below the team leader. Such roles can include editor, designer, quality reviewer, and many others.

Next I agree that you must list the task in the project. This way everyone can stay on top of things and understand when things are due and deadlines. A great software program to use is Microsoft Project. Project allows you to organize tasks, set milestones, and create reports of where you are on your project.

Finally assign the roles. This is where you actually assign the roles that you established in step #1. Make sure when you assign this role the person understands the responsibility that goes along with it.

If one follows these steps the project should start off (and hopefully) end successfully.
