Organisational issues that get in the way of effective project delivery

As another year passes it is time to reflect on company success, or in some cases the obstacles companies put in the way of their success. The list includes:

No project management system and people can ‘do their own thing’…and no one does

Having overly-complex decision making processes

Large project boards

Ill-trained or no training

No ownership of project management

Several risk management processes within the business

Project managers having no authority

Training those who are not engaged in project work

Senior managers who fire off delivery dates and budgets, without any thought as to whether the project can be delivered
