Strategies, tactics, and measurement are often poorly defined and disconnected from each other. The document provides definitions to clarify them: a strategy establishes goals and evaluates tactics to improve operations; tactics use best practices and strategic direction to improve operations; measurement involves both project and strategic metrics. Good strategies, tactics, and measurement are well-defined, connected to each other, and help evaluate progress towards goals. The document stresses that strategies should guide tactics and measurement, and tactical execution and goals should align with measurement.

Agile estimation
Planning poker and t-shirt sizing are two common agile estimation techniques. Planning poker uses cards with estimate ranges to facilitate team discussions, improving accuracy. T-shirt sizing assigns estimates based on metaphorical shirt sizes (S, M, L) rather than hours to avoid arguments. Effective agile estimation requires proper planning, understanding requirements, and accounting for tasks like testing, documentation, meetings, and support that teams often underestimate. Good communication and research into requirements allows teams to develop shared understandings needed for accurate estimates.

How to build a winning ig ecm or rim strategy keith atteck
Information Governance (IG) is truly a strategic initiative of any organization. As such, the connection to organizational strategy must be made concretely. The starting point for any IG initiative must be the organization’s corporate mandate, policies and strategic directives, mission and goals. The resulting tactical elements must be aligned with the organizational plans, objectives, and the operational targets of management.

Monitoring and evaluation 2
Monitoring and evaluation are distinct but related organizational activities aimed at improving efficiency, effectiveness, and impact. Monitoring involves systematically collecting and analyzing information during a project to keep it on track. Evaluation compares actual impacts to strategic plans and can be formative to improve strategy or summative after a project ends. Monitoring and evaluation provide essential management tools to review progress, identify problems, and make adjustments to better achieve objectives and make a meaningful difference. While often seen as only for donors, their primary use is internal learning to improve an organization's work.

Planning is the first step of the management process and involves establishing objectives and analyzing limitations to achieve goals. It determines what should be done, how, by whom, where, and why. Planning has several advantages like facilitating management by objectives, minimizing uncertainties, and improving employee morale. However, planning also has limitations such as potentially reducing creativity and being time-consuming. Effective planning involves management participation, realistic targets, and starting on a small scale. The planning process includes securing information, determining alternative plans, selecting an optimal plan, and establishing derivative plans.
APPLYING DMAIC TO PROCESS IMPROVEMENT’S.
Project managers, in just about any industry, are faced with the challenge of improving the efficiency and productivity of their businesses. To do this, they need to understand the best methodology and tools to study and analyze processes correctly. After all, to improve results, the best approach is to improve the process that gives you those results.
Measurement & metrics
Measurement is essential for planning, executing, and evaluating software projects successfully. It helps set achievable targets and monitor progress to determine if corrective action is needed. Historical measurement data from past projects provides the basis for estimating targets and plans for new projects. During project execution, measurement allows managers to track actual performance against plans and identify issues requiring attention, such as ensuring quality targets will be met or focusing reviews on certain modules. Root cause analysis of measurement data also helps organizations understand problems and prioritize process improvements.

Theory Driven Evaluation.pptx
Theory-driven evaluation is an important approach in implementation science that focuses on mechanisms of change rather than just outcomes. It involves developing a program theory or theory of change that explains how a strategy is expected to work. A theory-driven evaluation then assesses whether the actual implementation and effects match the initial program theory. It aims to learn whether a strategy works, for whom, in what contexts, and how. This provides valuable information for improving strategies and assessing their transferability.
Evaluation & Performance Measurement
Evaluation and performance measurement serve several key purposes:
1) They help ensure accountability, focus efforts on valuable results, and increase investor commitment.
2) They provide useful feedback to stakeholders to help them make wise decisions about resources.
3) They address quality improvement through systematic reflection on plans and progress.
Evaluation focuses on interventions while performance measurement focuses on results over time. Evaluation looks for qualitative stories while measurement looks for quantitative signals. The goal of evaluation is to provide useful feedback to influence decisions. There are various evaluation strategies and methods that can be used formatively to improve programs or summatively to examine outcomes and impacts. Performance measurement establishes metrics in key areas like effectiveness, efficiency, quality and time

- 24. Conclusion
- 25. Questions If strategies guide tactics, does this mean that a strategy never (or shouldn’t change) during the tactical phase? Is a robust project management process, tools, etc. required to even begin strategy or tactics? What if we’re already in the middle of all this? Is there a way to get “back on track” without starting over? Do we need to staff a strategist on tactical projects? Were you serious about that project manager remark? Strategies influence tactics. But, is there any way that tactics “influence” strategies? I already did, or paid for, a strategy that now I realize isn’t helping me. I can’t go back and redo it, so what should I do? What if I have a strategic question during tactics that isn’t answered by the strategy? Can you really convert any qualitative goal into a quantitative goal?
