1 Assess your situation

The first step is to understand why you are struggling. Is it because of the workload, the complexity, the deadlines, the expectations, or the personalities? Be honest with yourself and identify the root causes of your difficulties. Then, think about your strengths and weaknesses, and how they affect your work. What are you good at, and what do you need to improve? How do you cope with stress, feedback, and conflict? How do you communicate, collaborate, and learn? By assessing your situation, you can pinpoint the areas that need your attention and set realistic goals for yourself.

La única forma es reunirse regularmente. Intentar mantener la comunicación lo más fluida posible. Especialmente cuando el personal es joven e inexperto. En estos casos es cuando más peligro hay que se declare el incendio. Las nuevas tecnologías también ayudan, como TEAMS. El chat no es para hablar, para hablar es mejor hacerlo en persona. Pero sí el chat sirve, y muy bien, para resolver dudas puntuales y alertar sobre posibles inconvenientes Esto tiene el gran inconveniente que a quién dirige el grupo no le quede tiempo físico para trabajar de forma técnica, pero sí de forma administrativa Esto que digo es una paradoja:El que dirige el equipo debe intentar liberar en tiempo de sus subordinados coordinándose con otras disciplinas y clientes.

2 Seek feedback and support

The next step is to seek feedback and support from your team members and other sources. Feedback is essential for learning and improving your skills and performance. Ask your team leader, your peers, your clients, or your mentors for constructive criticism and suggestions. Listen carefully and respectfully, and thank them for their input. Don't take it personally or defensively, but use it as an opportunity to grow. Support is also important for overcoming challenges and boosting your confidence. Reach out to your team members, your friends, your family, or your professional network for advice, encouragement, or help. Don't be afraid to ask for assistance or clarification when you need it. Remember, you are not alone, and you have valuable resources to rely on.

3 Plan and prioritize

The third step is to plan and prioritize your work and your time. Planning helps you to organize your tasks, set deadlines, and allocate resources. Prioritizing helps you to focus on the most important and urgent things, and avoid distractions and procrastination. Use tools like calendars, to-do lists, project management software, or Gantt charts to plan and prioritize your work. Break down large or complex tasks into smaller or simpler ones, and assign them to yourself or your team members. Review your progress regularly, and adjust your plan as needed. Communicate your plan and your priorities to your team members, and make sure you are aligned with the project goals and expectations.
