By Jeffrey S. Nielsen, PMP, PgMP, PMI-ACP, CSM I have visited many companies over my 20 plus years of project and program management training and consulting. Time and time again, I see organizations are not dealing with risk appropriately.

You’ll need to create a work schedule if you’re managing a project or business. In its most basic sense, a schedule allows you to allocate work to your employees and let them know when they’re needed.

Reflecting on my journey through the realms of agility and organizational dynamics, I've come to realize that agility is often misunderstood.

Agile is dead! ☠️ The new year is only a few weeks old, but I’ve already read various LinkedIn articles claiming the death of Agile. Again. ?♀️ Given the yearly claims of Agile’s death, we can draw various conclusions. Agile never really died, or it reincarnated and came back alive and kicking. In recent weeks, I have spoken to people from different countries, and they all knew organizations that — at a large scale — got rid of their Agile Coaches, Scrum Masters, and various related roles.

Have you ever thought about how grocery shopping is a form of inventory management? Think about it — you probably visit the store often to restock your home with fresh produce. While uneaten snacks are often shifted to the back of the pantry to make room for this week’s grocery haul, you also keep an eye out for perishables, as food like berries and bread tend to spoil rather fast.
