One of the critical skills of an effective project manager is about over-communication of project events. In line with this, providing project status reports to the stakeholders is critical to ensure that they will not be surprised of any events during the course of the project.
Techrepublic's project management expert Tom Mochal created a project status report template for this critical task in project management. The template covers in a straightforward manner the following areas:
- Project description
- Overall status
- An explanation of any items that were flagged as potential problems
- Planned accomplishments for the next reporting period
Wow...this is just great. Another tool that can make life easier. Thanks for sharing.
