Você se depara com mudanças de design que estão além do escopo do projeto. Como você navegará pelas demandas das partes interessadas?

Hm-I'm disagreeing with this order of steps. Design changes that are beyond project scope, depending on what the project is, are a stakeholder-first conversation. Impact is stakeholder-defined, and facilitating how they do that starts with open discussions and rationale. So, if you reorder the steps to engage stakeholders, who help define impacts (positive and negative) and discuss alternatives, you have a collaborative approach to change definition. From there, the commitments to change course, targets, and delivery are made by the stakeholders to each other, and the leading facilitator captures that agreement, including revisions to risk profiles, mitigation strategies and next step escalations. Better conversations, better outcomes.

"When you're confronted with unexpected design changes, the first step is to" ask: Is this a NPD project? If so how will these changes impact the market and ecosystem feasibility data that was gathered, assessed and became the basis for the design recommendations that currently are under development? Do these changes potentially call into question the validity of the feasibility data project members and decision makers are relying on to justify continuing to advance this idea through the firms pipeline? If so . . . previous justification work will need to be redone first . . .

When faced with design changes beyond the project scope, it’s essential to navigate stakeholder demands with clear communication and a strategic approach. First, I would engage stakeholders in a transparent discussion, outlining the impact of the changes on the timeline, budget, and resources. Explaining these constraints helps to manage expectations and ensures stakeholders understand the challenges.

propose alternative solutions that align better with the current scope or suggest a phased implementation for the additional features, balancing immediate needs with long-term objectives. If the changes are critical, I'd request additional resources, ensuring that the project stays aligned with both stakeholder demands and original goals. Ultimately, keeping a feedback loop open allows me to maintain project integrity while accommodating the most feasible changes.

En mi opinión cuando uno trabaja independiente o como parte de una gran compañía uno tiene que aprender a ser flexible en cada parte del proceso. Conocer nuestro proceso y tener una estructura es importante, pero muchas veces al enfrentar desafíos o complicaciones (como cambios de proyecto) es importante tener las hermanitas y skills necesarias para saltar fuera, y así poder abordar diferentes problemáticas de manera creativa y eficiente, y tener la capacidad de adaptarse a una nueva situación siempre que sea necesario, manteniendo la mentalidad de trabajo en equipo, entendiendo de dónde viene el request y tratar de pensar out of the box y así llegar a un buen resultado.
