Leverage the CLeAR3 Methodology for your company. As project management experts, we have seen many projects fail due to a lack of attention to critical factors that impact project success. Organizations with prosperous projects possess key strengths, which we at NeuZeit term the CLeAR3 Difference. These attributes encompass a culture focus, leadership engagement, alignment on objectives, responsive leadership, apt resources, and organizational preparedness for the initiative. Prior to launching an engagement, assessing these factors and pinpointing opportunities is essential. Our CLeAR3 process shows how each of these factors can impact project success. 

By focusing on the key areas in our CLeAR3 process and ensuring they are well-managed, NeuZeit Group is able to increase the likelihood of your team achieving your goals and deliver top value to you and your stakeholders.

  • An organization’s culture can significantly impact the outcome of a project. An organization with a culture that values collaboration, transparency, and open communication will foster an environment of trust and collaboration which are both critical to project success. An organization that is resistant to change, hierarchical, or siloed may see its initiatives struggle to gain traction and support.

  • The engagement and support of leadership is critical for any project to be successful. Organizational leaders set the tone for the initiative by communicating its importance to the organization. They also ensure the project team remains on track by providing necessary resources, clear direction, and support in barrier removal.

  • Ensuring alignment between the project goals and objectives and the overall business strategy of the organization is a critical step that should be taken before beginning a new project. Key stakeholders and team members must see how the project fits in to the bigger picture and understand their role in project success. Projects that are not aligned with organizational strategy or that do not have clear objectives are likely to fail and may not receive needed resources or support.

  • Because projects are dynamic, change is inevitable. The project team and organizational leadership must be able and willing to respond quickly and adapt to necessary change. Teams that are resistant to change or are unable to be flexible will struggle to deliver.

  • Adequate people, technology, and funding enables projects to be delivered on time, below budget, and with the quality expected. It is crucial to ensure the project has the necessary resources prior to the start of the project and that they are being effectively managed and allocated throughout the lifetime of the initiative.

  • Finally, Organizational and team readiness is critical for success. Readiness looks like an Organization that has the change capacity and desire to undertake the initiative and a Project Team with the necessary skills, knowledge, and experience to undertake the work. Without being adequately prepared, no amount of project management methodology or leadership desire can make an initiative successful.
