A project manager notices that the team is completing activities according to the detailed project schedule, yet some decisions made by team members do not advance the overall project objectives. Which of the following actions would BEST help the project manager align the team's day-to-day efforts with the project's goals?
Apply a crashing technique to shorten activities on the critical path.
Add additional interim milestones to the schedule to make progress checkpoints more frequent.
Increase the frequency of earned value analysis to detect schedule and cost variances earlier.
Facilitate a workshop to co-create and communicate a clear project vision and mission statement.
Creating and communicating a clear project vision and mission gives team members context for why the work matters. When people understand the desired future state and the purpose behind the project, they can evaluate their choices against that vision and stay aligned with strategic objectives. Simply adding milestones, increasing earned-value reviews, or crashing the schedule manages time and cost but does not address the underlying need for shared direction.
