"There are definitely times when things don't happen as quickly as I'd like during a project, whether it takes longer than expected for testing to be completed or the web design goes on longer than anticipated. In conjunction with the project manager, I continually monitor to make sure the product timeline is staying on point. If there are signs that we are getting behind, I consider various options in order to make sure we still meet our deadline. I suppose you can call these options ways to 'cut corners,' but be assured I would never do anything to impact the core of the product. Generally, I consider reducing the functionality of the product to a minimum for the first release, soft-launching to a select group of customers while pushing back the full launch to a later date, skipping the rollout of the mimimum viable product (MVP), or re-prioritizing the product roadmap. If any of these changes are made, I make sure to communicate it clearly to all team members so we're all on the same page and can still achieve what we set out to do."
