[@unitedkingdomoffiveeyes9765]

The signature signing is a very good idea. i would call that "masking your movement" in military terms....basically getting them to do something but you're concentrating on other issues.

Thank you Matt. Always appreciate your support.

[@sixsigmamania]

I see charter as a contract between sponsor and project leader. It is great communication tool between them to understand project direction, deliverables opportunities, goal, scope, and timeline. If agreed, charter can be introduced to the team. Would you agree with this approach?

[@AdrianaGirdler]

What you say is correct but I recommend you take it one step further and make it a contract between the PM, Sponsor, Steering Committee (StC) and Team. I always have the Sponsor and StC sign off on it before I introduce it to the team.

[@igloknight]

An example of a project charter will be well appreciated

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi @ighaloakhimien5654, I do have a course that I think would be of benefit to you. It's called SLAY Project Management. In this course I walk you through the entire project process from start to finish to make sure you know exactly how to manage your project. It also includes all the templates you will need to keep you on track with your projects, including the project charter!

Informative video Adriana. In addition to this it would have been more effective if there was some slides for us to remember the learnings.

Hi Adriana, could you put points on the screen to, it will become much more easier to follow. Thanks for the wonderful tips though.

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi Saud, thanks for the suggestion. You can also turn on the closed captioning as well to make it easier to follow. Pleased that you enjoyed this video and thank you so much for watching, cheers!

[@maitreiify]

Hey Adriana! Could you share your experience on following- if a project charter is signed off and after that some changes need to be done, are you creating a new charter, or you update the original one (and get it signed off again) and outline in addendum what has been changed? Thanks!

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi @maitreiify. The project chart is a live working document that lives through the entire life cycle of the project, so any changes that need to be made should be done on the original charter and then signed off again so everyone is in agreement. Hope this helps and thanks for watching, cheers!

[@maitreiify]

@@AdrianaGirdler absolutely helpful! That was my understanding as well but it wasn’t supported by my manager. Now I need to sell this to her :) Cheers!

[@lauraiguavita2119]

Thanks for the info. Do you have a template of a project charter?

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi Laura, thanks for tuning in to watch this video. I do have the only 5-hour on-line course that teaches you the PRACTICAL side of project management. This course will guide you step-by-step on HOW to successfully run a project and provides you with all the templates and tips you need to be successful, including the project charter template. Here is the link so you can check it out. adrianagirdler.thinkific.com/courses/slaypm Wishing you all the best, cheers!

[@SumiaA]

As i come to understand what is project charter. Its fimiliar to the prospoal (narrative) and budget which includes all detials of project (name,location,deliverables,budget,workplan). However this document is usually owned and signed by PM, sponser,and steering committee. Should i prepare the project main items seperatly to be shared with project team based on their roles and call it a charter too?

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi Sumia, great question. You only need to prepare one document, the charter. However, You may want to create 2 versions. One that has all the project details for the sponsors and steering committee, this version would be for their eyes only, and one for the team with same information minus anything you do not want to share with your team. Creating 2 versions will ensure everyone is on the same page with the core information, minus the other details. Ideally it would be better to just have one document for both groups. Hope this helps. cheers!

[@IAmTracyReady]

How long does it take to create a project charter in real time, on an actual project?

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi Tracy, it all depends on how big your project is but ensure you do your scope statement first as much of that information can be copied directly into your Charter. I go through all of this in my Online Course SLAY Project Management and also provide you all the templates you need to ensure your project is a success. You can check it out here adrianagirdler.thinkific.com/courses/slaypm

[@livia2246]

great information, nothing for the visual learner though

[@AdrianaGirdler]

I have videos that show you how to fill it out, along with other project templates in my online course slaypm.com Please check it out.

[@untitledproductionMI]

I assume that "the sponsor" is the client?

[@AdrianaGirdler]

Hi @untitleproductionMI Check out this video I have on what is a project sponsor. I hope you will find it useful. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e57bkmiQqNmWrdE Cheers!
