I had a leadership nightmare. It was as if most of the directors I have heard and met so far gathered and accompanied me…. “Instead of providing me with the answers to “what? and why?” questions, my top-level director constantly occupied with “how?” I am doing the job, and it makes me feel trapped…. We are in a constant battle with other units and we keep trying to answer what front did we lose today, where did we win?

2020 was the year of Zoom. This amazing video conferencing tool has become a household name because of its amazing features and its ability to fit in with some of the most important applications that you might use daily in your professional life. This integration-ability is very important nowadays, as it is becoming increasingly difficult to simultaneously manage all of the projects that you have got going on.

The latest EBM (Evidence-Based Management) guide makes a reference to the Improvement Kata as a way to practice scientific thinking for value-based metrics. That Kata consists of 4 basic routines and was popularized for many years by Mike Rother. But because this Kata can be used to improve potentially anything, I found it also highly effective steering agile transformations.

This is a guest article by Elizabeth Harrin from GirlsGuideToPM.com. When I’m on holiday I want to be, you know, actually on holiday. Enjoying my vacation time, chilling out with a cocktail and a barbeque and playing ball with my kids. I don’t want to be checking emails, dealing with phone calls from my project sponsor or still doing project reports from the cabin in the woods because no one else can possibly write them in my absence.

In an ideal world, your team would work harmoniously. They’d celebrate each other’s wins, support each other’s growth, and enjoy spending time together (whether in-person or virtually) off the clock.

Without a doubt, when your team members work together as a collective unit, they are more efficient, productive, and focused than if they worked as individuals. However, most of us face one issue: we tend to work on tasks individually without feeling the need to include others in that process. You could ask your employees to work as a team, but some team members might find this situation too challenging, especially if you have mechanisms in place that obstruct teamwork.

Working on a project means being part of a team. The overall mood of the team effects the quality of life of the members, on the way they work, and the quality of what they produce. Each member’s vibe affects the mood of the group. Being on a team with a grumpy and depressed co-worker […].

Project242 (P242) is my journey to bike 242 miles in 24 hours, across the state of Minnesota on gravel roads, in August, 2021 (the Day Across MN, or the DAMN). I’ve found many lessons experienced riding a bike can be applied to our careers. In these posts, I will share the correlations.

There’s no denying that you can run a project using your inbox for communication and Excel for planning, organizing, and tracking progress. However, if you’re reading this, you’ve more-than-likely hit a wall using email and excel for managing projects.

If you are working in the field of project management, then you may have noticed that all of these amazing tasks and processes that are a part of it lack visual panache. Visual appeal in the year 2021 is everything. They save time for people with a short attention span (*which we are all guilty of) and help to get things initiated faster. Whether you take your personal life as an example of your professional life, if there is no visual appeal in it, then people or clients don’t think twice about
