MY WORK
MY TASKS:
-
Organize the micro-planning of 2 projects spread over 3 months using an AGILE-inspired method.
-
Use the most automatic gantt chart possible on Excel to have a clear task tracking as well as an estimate of the delay or advance taken on the project.
-
Planning meetings to ensure cohesion between each specialty and team member.
-
Design the narrative document for one of the two projects.
-
The project was carried out in parallel with the school classes, which required work on everyone's personal time.
-
So we decided to have a regular communication on each member's availability and set up a schedule adapted to each member.
-
-
A vision too large from a tech point of view with the A team. There were too many features planned for the estimated time.
-
After a team discussion and agreement with teachers, we used a plugin instead to make up for lost time.
