Template library

Seven templates, each built because a real project went wrong in a specific, repeatable way. Every one is a single page or a single meeting — anything longer is abandoned under exactly the pressure it was made for.

Initiation · 1-page document

Project Charter & Product Vision One-Pager

The hybrid initiation artifact: sponsor-signable, fits on one page.

Initiation / Planning · Grid + table

Stakeholder Map & Communication Plan

Power/interest grid plus the cadence table that turns it into calendar entries.

Planning · Facilitation script + register

Risk Analysis Workshop Kit

A 90-minute facilitation script with register and probability/impact scoring.

Planning / Monitoring · Charter + agenda

Steering Committee Charter

Mandate, membership, decision rights and an agenda that produces decisions.

Execution / Monitoring · Log + form

Decision Log & Change Request Form

The anti-scope-creep pair, with a built-in escalation path.

Execution · Playbook

Sprint & Delivery Cadence Playbook

Planning, stand-up, review and retro agendas mapped onto PMBOK control.

Closing · Checklist + matrix + retro

Project Closure & Lessons Learned Pack

Acceptance checklist, handover matrix and a retrospective that produces change.

Work with me

Sometimes the fix needs a person, not a template.

I am Tigran Zakarian, a senior project manager with 13 years of end-to-end delivery for clients such as H&M Group, TV4, SEB and Clear Channel. I work on exactly the situations described across this site: rescuing drifting deliveries, setting up governance that people actually use, and facilitating the workshops that unblock decisions.
