Milestones
Make the deadline
part of the work.
Put the next delivery in the project calendar, attach the tasks that get you there, and give someone clear responsibility for seeing it through.
Take a look around below. The film is on its way.
FROM DATE TO DELIVERY
A deadline with the work attached.
A milestone brings a date, a manager and a set of project tasks together. Open it to see what still needs doing, rather than treating the calendar as a separate list of promises.
- Project calendar
- Assigned tasks
- Clear ownership

PROGRESS YOU CAN CHECK
Done means the tasks are done.
Review the incomplete tasks beside the milestone. Finish or unassign them before completing the milestone, so the delivery status reflects the work underneath it.
- Open work visible
- Completion checks
- Shared context
