💡 Golden Nuggets: Best Practices for Project Management
Project is a crucial part of project management and organization. Here are some best practices to consider:
Unique: Project names should be unique to each project. This helps to avoid confusion and potential mismanagement.
Avoid Sensitive Information: It's best to avoid using sensitive information such as client names, confidential project details, or strategic plans in project names. This information can be easily viewed and used for malicious purposes.
Easy to Remember: Project names should be easy to remember, but not so straightforward that they reveal sensitive details.
Appropriate Length: A project name that is too short may not provide sufficient information, while one that is too long may be difficult to remember. A good range to consider is between 6 to 14 characters.
Avoid Special Characters and Spaces: Some systems might not support special characters or spaces in project names, or they might create difficulties when integrating with other systems hence prohibited. Underscores are accepted.
Consistent Format: If you're managing a large number of projects, consider using a consistent format for project names. This could be based on project type or department (e.g., Marketing_Project_SEOAutomation or Philips_Project_IOTAutomation), which can make managing and organizing projects easier.
Avoid Offensive Words: Project names should be professional and not include any offensive or inappropriate words.
Review: Regularly review project statuses to maintain progress and prevent delays. Keep project information up-to-date to facilitate communication and collaboration.
Archive vs Delete: If your project is temporarily on hold, consider archiving it instead of deleting. If the project is permanently closed or completed, you can consider deleting it.
