For almost a year now, the Corona pandemic has determined our daily lives. The consequences also turned our working lives upside down.

We’ve taken a look back at the past months and here’s a summary of our most important and funny experiences, insights and anecdotes from one year of online meetings.

Today I’m interviewing Rachel Mata , Lead Project Manager at Edu-tech company Instructor Brandon. She currently lives in Bogotá, Columbia and I was excited to learn more about her career and life in South America. Rachel, how did you get into project management? It came to me from nowhere. I started working at age 16. All my previous job experiences had been surrounded by planning, coordinating logistics, and, more than that, getting things done.

I’m running a webinar on the skills you need to manage multiple projects on 4 February. Register here. “There’s another project I’m just waiting to hear about,” said my sponsor. I silently groaned. I was already managing a couple of projects and while I probably could take on the workload of this additional small piece of work, the mental overload of juggling so many things was getting too much.

What is Lab Management? If science is the place where curiosity, discovery, and innovation meet up to have coffee, lab management is the process of making sure the doors are open, lights are on, and grounds are brewing. Labs in academia and industry rely on effective lab management to facilitate and support the groundbreaking scientific achievements that make the headlines and improve our lives.

By Harold Kerzner, Ph.D. The landscape for project management changes almost every year. Some changes are relatively small or incremental whereas other changes can be significant. Historically, most of the changes appeared in the methodology, processes, tools, and techniques. Now, many of the changes are behavioral changes. There will be a significant change in how we define the success (and failure) of a project.

The fourth industrial revolution, or ‘digital revolution’ as many have called it, brings more data into our awareness than we’ve ever had before—so much data, in fact, that we have to find new ways of analysing it, new ways of spotting trends, and new ways of turning that data into information and hence a competitive advantage. I believe Microsoft’s Power BI allows for the creation of a data driven culture within our organisations.

Vijay is the Scrum Master for a couple of Scrum Teams that are building a mobile app for Booking Facilities. He has a list of impediments. A lot of those could only be resolved with the help of Senior Management. One of the impediments is the lack of UX designers in the teams. Without this specialized skill, a lot of user experience aspects in the mobile app would be missing.

Mind mapping is something that you may have heard of and used before throughout your education and work-life In fact, when many of us think of brainstorming sessions, we tend to see a group of people huddled around a desk, throwing ideas back and forth while someone jots these down on a whiteboard – more often than not, in the style of a mind map. There are many benefits of using mind maps for brainstorming – whether you’re doing it alone or with a group of people and MindGenius 20 allows you to

To assume the best about another is the trait that has created modern society. Those occasions when our trusting nature gets violated are tragic.But the alternative—to abandon trust as a defense against predation and deception—is worse. Malcolm Gladwell “Talking to Strangers" I've written here and elsewhere: 'strangers don't trust'. What strangers do -- at least in project situations -- is.

One thing that we have learned in the project management paradigm and the overall organizational world, is that there is no guarantee of something being extraordinary if it has been a part of the market for a long time. It has to prove its worth by being the best in the game in the everyday work life of professionals, and if you can’t do that then your alternatives are going to swoop in no time and take your place in the rankings.

As I watched my boss get an award and recognition for work my team and I did, I got pissed. Not only did he do jack s**t, he didn’t even know about our project, or that we’d completed it early with 100% of requirements met, until two days ago! I shared status updates with him and tried to keep him informed, but nothing was read and a lot of 1:1’s were cancelled.

With work-from-home becoming a norm, it’s more critical than ever to manage team availability and workloads. Shared calendar apps can help you stay on top of your team’s schedule. . Remote team members often work across time zones and on flexible schedules. However, a schedule that fits one person may not suit everyone. .

I have used Mind Mapping techniques for the best part of 30 years. Without doubt it has helped me enormously throughout my career. I have also seen many colleagues blossom as they take the technique on board and yet seen first-hand , those who find it’s not for them. . With MindMaps, it’s seems, you either “get it” or you don’t and there doesn’t seem to be any middle ground.
