Sharing Your Charter and Getting Feedback
Reading
To enhance the quality of your project charter, this segment encourages collaboration by sharing it with another person for valuable feedback. The video suggests partnering with a classmate or someone willing to provide input, emphasizing that physical proximity is not necessary, but email addresses and names are essential for digital sharing. If working independently, participants are encouraged to seek feedback from someone they know. The process involves sharing the project charter with a partner and drafting a short, professional message requesting a review and feedback. The importance of granting editing permissions is discussed, with options to allow viewing, commenting, or full editing access, depending on the level of collaboration desired. This flexibility allows participants to control who can make changes to their document.
Upon sharing the charter, the video guides participants to check their email for the link to their partner’s document, where they can leave comments offering constructive feedback. This collaborative approach promotes an exchange of ideas, with reviewers providing insights into what works well and suggesting improvements. The process concludes with participants adding their names, roles, and dates to the Approvals table at the bottom of their partner’s charter as a formal acknowledgment of the review. The video emphasizes the interactive nature of digital collaboration, where comments and replies are visible in the document and can be accessed via email. The advantages of this collaborative sharing approach are highlighted, including the ability to work simultaneously on the document and streamline the sharing process without creating multiple versions. To wrap up the activity, participants are encouraged to move on to the next video in the series.
