CASE STUDY
I’m the Event Manager of a large up scale event management company in Mandaluyong City. I
know for a fact that as an event manager, my main task is to think and plan for a smooth flow of
the events that we conduct. However, I was assigned with other ad hoc tasks which at some
point.
1. What would be the main problem?
Answer:
The main problem is that the event manager was assigned with other ad hoc tasks.
2. What should I consider to make my task easier?
Answer:
Don't panic, stay calm and attack ad hoc projects head-on. You should assign your team
members, add a description, and set a deadline for completion to make sure you and your
team always stay on track with your work.
3. What steps would I take to improve the situation?
Answer:
Don’t throw your current project management process out the window
your process for scheduling projects shouldn’t be totally free for all. That means having
some sort of formal approval process that goes beyond email. If you can get an overview
of your available resources, like what you see in Teamwork above, that works even
better. Assemble the right teammates to tackle the task, Communication and collaboration
are keys to knocking out last-minute projects. The fewer interruptions among your
teammates, the better. For the sake of productivity and reducing stress on your
colleagues, make a point not to put additional work on the plate of someone who’s
already overwhelmed.
