It starts with just a couple of basic rules and the right technology.  Keep reading, I'll describe both:

Managing IT involves getting the following dialed in and worked through with everyone in the department:

1. Daily Rules: Living the following basic rules with all of your staff:

  • I work for a boss, that means I follow their priorities not my own.
  • I get paid to Deliver Results, in a timely manner consistent with our guidelines, values, methodology and tools.
  • I get paid to do it right (follow the plan and process), document what I do, and leverage information along the way.
  • Work heads up, not heads down, e.g. evaluate your progress regularly and at a minimum by 20% into the project communicate and readjust priorities and plans if necessary.  "Once a project is 20 percent complete, the cost performance index does not vary from its current value by more than 10 percent."  (www.cio.com)

2. Daily Questions: Asking and knowing the answers to these questions every day:

  • Where are you going?
  • How are you going to get there?
  • What will it cost, how much time will it take?
  • What is the priority, the payoff?

3.  Use the right (Work Smart) Technology - ManagePro

Managing an IT department always works best when everyone organizes their work around priorities, plans and results updates on a daily basis.  It's called working smart and it works best when tied into a central technology.  Without that, it's extra hard to meet deadlines and still manage all the "urgent requests" that come in day after day.
