I can tell you from my own experience that the most important thing in project management is not to try to do everything yourself. That ll lead to problems sooner rather than later. You must plan which tasks you really need to do yourself and then delegate responsibility for each of the other tasks to others. You should of course, make sure the members of your team have the initiative and flexibility necessary for such responsibilities.
我可以根据我自己的经验告诉你，在项目管理中最重要的事情是不要试图事事亲力亲为。那迟早会出问题的。你必须计划哪些任务是你真正需要自己完成的，然后将其他任务的责任分配给其他人。当然，你应该确保团队成员具有承担此类责任所需的主动性和灵活性。

I think, it s absolutely crucial that all the people to whom you ve delegated responsibilities should get together at least once a month so that you can all share information about how your own bits of the project are going. If you don t do that, then it s easy to assume something has been done by someone else when it hasn t after all，not everyone has the same level of motivation. Email contact is great, of course, but nothing beats face-to-face communication.
我认为，至关重要的是，你委派的所有人每个月至少应该碰头一次，这样你就可以分享你自己负责的项目部分的进展。如果你不这样做，就很容易假设有人已经完成了某些事，但其实并没有，毕竟不是每个人都有相同水平的动机。当然，电子邮件联系很好，但没有什么能比得上面对面的交流。

You have to get off to a good start which means you have to be absolutely clear about what your aims are right from the start. These should be discussed with the team and should be put in writing so that everyone shares full knowledge about the precise parameters of the project. I know from several projects I ve been involved with that confusion about goals often leads to problems early on，problems which could very easily have been prevented.
你必须有一个好的开始，这意味着你必须从一开始就非常清楚你的目标是什么。这些应该与团队讨论并以书面形式记录下来，以便每个人都能充分了解项目的精确参数。我参与了几个项目，从中发现，目标不清晰往往会导致问题，这些问题本可以轻松避免。
Twenty-one:
21：
When you re working on a new project,you have to delegate, of course. But, if anything starts to go wrong you should handle it yourself. As project manager, it is up to you to keep a close eye on how things are progressing. You should try to predict any difficulties and sort them out immediately so the project can move on. There are many tasks that can be handed over to other people, but not this.
当你负责一个新项目，当然，你必须委托他人。但是，如果出现问题，你应该自己解决。作为项目经理，你需要密切关注事情的进展。你应该试着预测困难并立即解决它们，这样项目才能继续进行。有许多任务可以移交给其他人，但这个不行。
Twenty-two:
22：
Planning things in detail is,of course, vital. However, it makes sense to ensure that your initial plan incorporates a degree of adaptability. You and your project team can t assume that circumstances will stay the same for ever, and so it makes sense for your plan not to be so rigid that it cannot take account of any developments and changes in circumstance. It should not, of course, need to stray from its basic objectives.
详细规划事情，当然至关重要的。但是，确保你的初始计划包含一定程度的适应性很有意义。你和你的项目团队不能假定环境将永远保持不变，因此您的计划不能太死板，以致不能考虑环境中的任何发展和改变，这很有意义。当然，它不应偏离其基本目标。
