On any project, especially a startup, the use of Milestones can be an almost necessary way to keep track of progress and accountability.
A Milestone can be defined as a concrete task within the main project that will be completed by a certain date. In a software/tech development environment Milestones can include but not be limited to the following
- Completion of Specific function/Design or Page
- Deposit of new Funding
- Specific Product release version
A milestone is something that is planned for and then achieved
Many unsuccessful people will scoof at Milestones and say that
“Why do I need that, I have it all in my head.”
Thats fine to have it all in your head if you are working alone. But when people work together on a team project, Milestones are like markers that keep all of the team involved and a system for self-accountability. They are necessary to keep people from going off the deep end and instilling a system where expectations can be achieved.
