Are your projects done? Don’t be too happy. Projects don’t end in the implementation phase. Once your projects are done, you should take a moment to look back and see what went wrong and what went well. Some of us might think that it isn’t necessary because we can’t turn back the hands of time; however, evaluating projects can bring the following benefits.
- Evaluation helps you avoid doing the same mistakes in future projects. Always keep in mind the popular saying “one is enough and two is too much”.
- Recognize your strengths and continue building on it during your next projects. Knowing what helped you hit the marks during your recent project will help you develop strategies for future projects.
- Recognize your weaknesses and find ways to improve them. By evaluating your projects, you can see areas that you need to work on. Those weaknesses might have negatively affected your project at this time; however, when you continue to improve those areas, you are reducing its impact on your future projects. Those can possibly be your future strengths, too.
So before you celebrate, make sure you find time to look back. In the Philippines, we have a popular saying, “a person who does not look back to where his from, will not make it to where he plans to be”.
