Zen Project Management

I recently had the opportunity to hear Tom Peters speak and I have to say that even at the age of 71, he still has a lot of energy and passion. He began the talk with his experience coming out of college with an engineering degree. He found the math and science classes did little to prepare him for the real world, the people part of the equation, or the “all important last 99%” of being successful.

We regularly review major projects to extract valuable lessons and pass on the knowledge so that everyone can benefit. One failed project we recently took an interest in is Denver International Airport’s luggage handling system. I was compelled to study this project because checking bags at the airport is still one of my biggest fears. My eye twitches just thinking about it.

This is one of the fatal mistakes project managers make. If you wait until the kick-off for stakeholders to give their buy-in for the project, it is way too.

Have you told your project manager how much you appreciate them lately? You probably should, because in a few years, you might not have one at all.

With the arrival of another Halloween, I find it refreshing to re-watch one of the most revered classics in horror and suspense films, Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 movie, The Shining. The film is based on Stephen King’s novel of the same title, but deviated so much from the book that the author reportedly hated Kubrick’s final product. Nevertheless, the movie gave us some of the most iconic horror images in all of cinema: the ghost twins at the end of the haunted hall, the child mut

When it comes to project management, productivity tools can be a lifesaver for your sanity and your bottom line. Platforms like Zapier allow you to automate a wide range of tasks by connecting one application to another and indicating what operation must be accomplished. These automations are called “ zaps ,” and are composed of a trigger and a corresponding action.

When we talk about “compliance and security," most companies want to ensure that steps are being taken to protect what they value most – people, data, real or personal property, intellectual property, digital assets, or any other number of other things - and it’s more important than ever that safeguards are in place. Let’s step back and focus on the idea that no matter how complicated the compliance and security regime, it should be able to be distilled down to a checklist.
