Episode Synopsis

Episode 6 is all about the critical path, which is essentially a sequence of tasks you need to finish on time in order to complete your initiative. It’s a flow chart that needs to be followed as tightly as possible as any delays in critical tasks will delay your whole project. It starts from setting your strategy and takes you all the way through to launching your products on time - you hope! It’s more critical and creative thinking too, if you face an obstacle in your critical path, how are you going to find a work around. Time is money! Buyers are always working in the future, planning for at least 6 months, if not 1 year, or even 18 months ahead.
