CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTORS SURVEY

Critical Factor #1: Change Management
Statement #1

I am skilled at maintaining a staffing management plan baseline, so that when changes occur, I am prepared to quickly assess the change impacts.

Statement #2

What importance does management in my organization place on the quality of my human resource plan and staffing management plans?

Statement #3

How often is my staffing management plan, including vendor resource utilization, reviewed and updated??

 

Critical Factor #2: Scope and Deliverables
Statement #4

Team members on my project ramp on and off in an orderly fashion, and I manage expectations for smooth transitions and team morale

Statement #5

How important are clear delineation of roles and responsibilities in your staffing management plan?

Statement #6

My organization takes into account compliance considerations, such as a checklist of policies, procedures, contracts, laws, and regulations with which projects must comply

 

Critical Factor #3: Conflict Management
Statement #7

I effectively manage team member conflicts with clarity on their roles and responsibilities. I integrate their availabilities and abilities in the candidate pool with team member roles, responsibilities and competencies per the staffing management plan.

Statement #8

The use of a project organization chart (a hierarchical type chart from the Human Resource Plan) is used effectively to identify positions and reporting relationships on projects I manage, and reduces conflicts and role ambiguity.

Statement #9

I avoid resource conflicts by pre-assignment to my projects that is based on who is available with the needed expertise. Early discussions happen based on resource needs previously defined in the project charter and human resource management plan.

 

Critical Factor #4: Strategic Planning
Statement #10

I’ve effectively used virtual teams as a strategy to fill skill gaps on my projects. Virtual teams are groups possessing shared goals and fulfilling responsibilities with little or no face-to-face contact, but I have been able to implement them successfully.

Statement #11

When I invest in training and team building for my project team, and use of the Tuckman model, I’ve observed improved feelings of trust and cohesiveness among team members that raise productivity through greater teamwork.

Statement #12

How important are the effective use of general management skills such as empathy, communication, coaching, and group facilitation in your team building activities?
