communication
My goal in communicating with the team is to create an environment so we have a clear understanding of how things work, explain it simply and show that I am listening (i.e. communication channels and standards). Clear team roles, regular updates and rules for communicating will open the door for the continual flow of info and establish feedback loops. Meetings with video conferencing and daily stand-ups or a daily communique, assure a forum to share relevant information and cooperation.
facilitation
Facilitation is an important part of being a good coordinator, having mastery over it makes me a great facilitator. Using this skill, I am better able to guide the team through work, processes and conflict. Finding solutions that work for everybody is the result of removing barriers, actively listening to all stakeholders and setting up problem solving discussions. Getting people together is the foundation of facilitation.
scheduling
Scheduling is the heart of coordination and I analyze work information to determine what work, tasks or activities need to be completed to achieve the MVP. Correct decomposition of work is essential in building out my schedules and estimating how long it will all take. These schedules are living documents, made to adjust sequencing the tasks and I assume they will change. Work does not get done without resources, so assigning the right resource to the right work at the right time is mission critical for my schedules.
