When my team clashes over project scope, I start by giving everyone a chance to share their views, setting ground rules for active listening and focusing on solutions. I summarize common points to build unity and use clarifying questions to understand each position. Then, I guide the team through a prioritization framework, like MoSCoW, to categorize items as Must-Have, Should-Have, Could-Have, or Won't-Have for now. This keeps us focused on project goals, helping to identify essential components. I encourage brainstorming to merge differing ideas and remind everyone of the importance of flexibility. Finally, I document our decisions clearly to ensure alignment and accountability.
