It is always a good idea that the kick-off meeting ends with some kind of team-building activity or exercise aimed at teaching some rules for efficient teamwork. This task is best handled by an experienced facilitator and is usually a combination of physical and mental agility with an emphasis on teamwork.
Some project management experts believe that in those cases in which the project team has no responsibility on profit, there is no point in having a Business Plan session. Given that the start of a project is an important event, notification of the kick-off meeting’s occurrence should be formal and in writing. It is a common practice for one or more designated attendees to take notes during the meeting and then write a short document or ‘minutes of meeting’ with a summary of all topics and issues discussed during the meeting as well as the conclusions reached. This document should be distributed to all meeting participants.
When an ‘industrialization’ process is included in the project, often a second kick-off meeting is held. Also known as ‘plant kick-off’, this meeting starts when the industrial project team begins to take possession of a project; that is, at what is called 'tool launch' - when the project team starts placing massive orders to suppliers in order to 'build the plant'. This concept is also applicable to IT projects, where a large number of orders is placed to purchase servers, peripherals and other large equipments.
Some Final Thoughts
By now, we hope that the vast majority of us agrees on that the kick-off meeting is probably the most important project meeting held during the life of the project. Not only it is the first time that the entire project team is gathered but also, it is a great opportunity for the project manager to meet his team and gain commitment from it.
In this article we have intended to provide you with some basic and practical guidelines on the key themes or topics that a successful kick-off meeting should cover. Nevertheless, you should keep in mind that since each project is unique, slight modifications to these guidelines might be needed in order to perfectly adjust them to your specific project. Finally, even though some discussion and exchanging of points of view are involved in the process, a kick-off meeting should be a clarifying and enriching experience for all parties involved.
