Project Interview

Start with the project direction before the work is broken down into tasks. Answer a few core questions to create a clear project map.

Purpose of the interview

The project interview helps you capture purpose, goals, deliverables, risks and decisions before the project becomes just a list of tasks.

01

Give the project a clear name that will be easy to recognize later.

02

Describe the problem, need or opportunity that makes the project important.

03

Describe the effect, change or value that should be visible when the project has been completed.

04

List concrete results, documents, decisions, activities, system parts or other deliverables.

05

Identify risks, obstacles and uncertainties that could affect time, quality, responsibility or delivery.

06

Describe important decisions, choices or approvals that the project depends on.

Next step

When the interview is saved, a project map is created. It gives you a shared overview before you continue to the workspace, risks, decisions and status report.
