AI is powerful, potentially disruptive, and will change what project managers do and how they work.

Using a decision matrix can help them better evaluate their choices and prioritize work. Learn what a decision matrix is and when you should use it. We’ll even link to a free decision matrix template for Excel that you can use when next trying to figure out the best course of action.

Too many sticky notes, lists and emails with things to do? Work management software is the answer! Without a centralized work management tool, we see teams struggle with miscommunication. Tasks can be misunderstood or lost amongst the many messages we are all fielding every day. Tracking progress is a huge manual effort, leading to missed deadlines and duplicated work when team members are not aligned.

An agile backlash is underway. Some organizations have declared victory, fired their agile staff, and moved on. Others are agile in name only or are “doing” agile but have not fundamentally changed the way they work. We should not blame Agile for bad Agile. The problem is not with the values, principles, and practices. Instead, it is with organizations and their approach to agility.

If you work in project management, your job isn’t done until your users are happy — but that isn’t always the case. Data from the Harvard Business Review shows that a meager 35% of projects worldwide are deemed successful by the people who build and use them. As every project manager knows, it’s almost impossible to get from A to B on a project without something going wrong.

Projects cost money. Everyone knows that. But what’s harder to discern is if the project is worth the investment. The last thing stakeholders want is to discover the project isn’t financially effective. That’s where the cost performance index comes in. We’ll discuss what the cost performance index does and how it does it below. We’ll share the formula for calculating the cost performance index in project management and even provide an example to better illustrate how it works.

It's not just about what you aim to achieve in the coming Sprint, but also how this goal ties into the broader picture – the product vision and the customer's desires. Peeling back the layers, it becomes clear that setting a Sprint goal isn't a simple tick-box exercise.
