Ep 142: 5 Ways to Avoid Scope Creep

We’ve been talking all about scope creep and today we are going to talk about avoiding it! 

1. Document the requirements

2. Set up a change process.

3. Create a clear project schedule.

4. Verify the scope. Make sure everyone is on the same page.

5. Engage the project team. You want to know how changes will affect them.

It is important to avoid scope creep because it can take longer than you budgeted, cost more than you budgeted and can lead to burnout.
