You're juggling short-term wins and long-term success in your program. How do you strike the right balance?
Managing a program effectively demands a keen balance between achieving immediate goals and paving the way for future success. As a program manager, you might find yourself constantly deciding how to allocate resources and attention between tasks that will show quick results and those that are investments in your program's future. Striking this balance is not just about making decisions; it's about understanding the interplay between immediate deliverables and long-term strategic objectives. The challenge lies in ensuring that short-term wins do not undermine the overarching goals, and that long-term planning does not impede necessary progress.
