Delegation is one of the most powerful tools available to a project manager. Yet, many managers struggle with it, often feeling like they need to do everything themselves to ensure quality and efficiency. While this instinct is understandable, failing to delegate can lead to burnout, bottlenecks, and an underdeveloped team. Effective delegation frees time for higher-level strategic tasks, strengthens the team, builds confidence, and improves overall productivity.

When Im mentoring project managers, one of the key things I hear time and time again is that they want to be given more responsibility and have greater influence over the work. Project managers often struggle from not having budget and resource responsibility.

A Product Owner is an important accountability when it comes to creating Valuable products. However, a Scrum Team may not always have a Valuable Product Owner. What I mean is, if the person performing the accountability of Product Owner is not well versed or executes their responsibilities poorly then it leads to a lot of challenges and eventually can lead to failure of the Product.

Projects are made up of tasks. Each of those tasks needs to be completed to meet certain quality standards. However, they also have to be done safely and, often, under specific conditions or regulatory requirements. A method statement is a document that ensures tasks check these boxes.

Some of the most challenging projects, jobs, and relationships shape the way we move through life. They force us to grow, toughen up, and—if we’re lucky—walk away with some hard-earned wisdom. I’ve had plenty of these moments, both in and out of work. The kind that makes you question everything, push you to the edge, and somehow leave you standing stronger on the other side.

When people say Kanban, they tend to think of a specific set of practices. Whiteboards & sticky notes (both almost universally virtual). Tasks moving through columns that represent workflow. Every now and then, WIP limits even. As often as we do it with other things, it reduces a broader principle to a set of oversimplified techniques, which, in turn, tend to underdeliver in many contexts.
