We know we are supposed to learn from our projects. While we know this, acknowledge it and theoretically agree with it, for the most part we don’t do it. Lessons aren’t learned so much as they are observed. Can we change?
When agile teams get comfortable with starting a story in one sprint and finishing in the following one, problems arise such as delayed feedback and added low-value work. Understanding the main causes of “carryover” and the associated challenges can help you find ways to avoid or limit the bad habit.
While it is possible (and necessary) to be a friendly project manager to your team, being a friend isn't the best idea. But an organization that has good camaraderie within the body of its workforce can increase employee satisfaction. How do we strike a balance? Here we look at building a friendly work environment.
No matter where you work or what project you are assigned to, there is bound to be a funnel somewhere in the organizational hierarchy. How you work through and around that funnel may determine just how successful your project will be.
Occupational health and safety (OHS) is a multidisciplinary field concerned with the safety, health and welfare of people at work. It's not just about being socially responsible—it also makes good business sense. You should regard it as just as important as the achievement of any other key business objective.
If the project manager wants to implement lasting changes, this webinar will help to understand these processes and offer a glance over formal tools and methodologies to manage all the complexity involved.

プロジェクトマネージャーは、幅広いタスクを実行し、多くの会議に出席する必要がある役割を担います。 それはいつ過度のものになるのですか？それについて何ができますか？
Are you a project leader or a project manager? What is the difference, and which role truly makes projects succeed? There is a need for both, but there can be tension and stress when managers and leaders do not agree—and employees often respond differently to different styles of both.

私たちは皆、一般にビジネス界の落とし穴を知っていて、避けなければならないことを理解していますが、最も明らかなトラップは、時には私たちが陥りやすいものです。特に、数多くの競合する優先事項を持つプロジェクトを管理し、 先行する道を離れてください。 この2部構成の記事シリーズは、プロジェクトが失敗する上位10の理由を特定し、共通のプロジェクト管理の落とし穴を回避する方法に焦点を当てています。
質問：私は、私のプロジェクトと3人の同僚のプロジェクトマネージャーのプロジェクトが、同社の戦略目標をどのように満たしているかを文書化し始めました。それは今私が仕事中に行っていることの一部ではないので、私はその用語を理解することは認めても困惑していますが、経営陣が期待していることをどのように準備するかについては考えていません。正直言って、それは少しあいまいだと思うし、私は事実と数字を扱うことを好む。何をすればよいでしょうか？ A.戦略目標は、組織が順調に進んでいることをステークホルダーに確信させるために作成されたマーケティングマジックです。彼らはプロジェクトマネージャーやプロジェクトチームにとって重要ではありません。割り当てられていれば、彼らのケアとメンテナンスをすばやく拒否すべきです。そうでなければ、会社の報告書が見栄えが悪いと、あなたは非難されるでしょう。 B.多くのプロジェクトマネージャーは戦略目標を持つ会社に精通していますが、割り当てられたプロジェクトのために何があるかを知ることができる幸運な人も少なくありません。私たちの大部分の能力と能力を備えています。 C.営業チームだけが、上位管理のための戦略的客観的レポートを作成するために必要な番号にアクセスできます。営業担当者は、売上数を操作して見栄えを良くすることができるため、営業担当者はスタッフにデータの取得とレポートの作成を依頼する必要があります。 D.戦略的な目標がうまくいくとはいえ、重要なのは、プロジェクトチームがプロジェクトチャーターで構築または作成するように求められる成果物を作成していることです。あなたがそれらを選ぶことに関与していないので、あなたの焦点になるはずのプロジェクト作業から時間がかかるので、組織全体でそれらを追跡するように公正に頼むことはできません。
質問：私たちの経営陣は非常に敏捷性があり、最近の統計には一致していないにもかかわらず、このプラクティスに対する研究や歴史はなく、生産性の向上につながっていないと言います。私は、これが実際に現在の労働力の最大のセクションであるミレニアムに参加する方法であることを示すために、彼らに何を伝えることができますか？同じ名前で呼び出されていない場合でも、高い生産性を最大限に発揮する実績があることを示すために、 A.アジャイルは2001年にユタ州スノーバードで考案されて以来、起源は100％アメリカ人です。この有名な会議の結果が一連のスピーチ、記事、会話を通じて発表されるまで、世界中の他の人はこのような慣行を試みたことがありませんでした。 B.アジャイルの原則は、Theory Xと呼ばれるほとんどの労働者にとって基本的であると信じられているDouglas McGregorの行動に頼っています。人々が仕事を嫌い、それを避けようとしていることから、管理。 C. W. Edwards Deming博士は、最先端のアジャイルのような哲学を開発しました。彼はこれをHierarchy of Needsと呼びました。マネージャーが従業員のニーズをすべて満たすことができれば、生産性は飛躍的に向上します。 1つでも満たされていない場合、プロジェクト成果は大まかになります。 D.アジャイルは、実際には、1980年代のウィリアム大内博士の「日本的経営」スタイルの日本の動機付け理論よりも成長しています。これまでのコンセプトは、日本で初めて、そして世界中の他の場所で、現代の職場で効果的であることが実証されています。
Is there a connection between the characteristics of servant leadership and of a successful project manager? Are project managers more likely to tend toward servant leadership styles? Is a purpose-driven leader or a people-driven leader part of the key to successful project management?
We all know we are supposed to do a “lessons learned” exercise as part of our projects. Some of us even take the time to go through the motions. The challenge is that lessons learned rarely get paid attention to, and organizational practices rarely change as a result. If we really want to learn from our projects, we need to change how we think about lessons learned.
If only CHANGE were easy. We lead projects and initiatives every day and the odds that they will be successful are not in our favor. It is like herding cats. Evidence shows that incorporating Emotional Intelligence makes it easier to lead people down a different path than they are currently on.
A sea change in project management practice and principles is already well underway. The roots go back as far as knowledge created and discovered in the early 20th century, but received a tremendous shot in the arm when the Agile Manifesto and Principles leapt into the world from its crèche in Snowbird, Utah.
Project Managers normally use the same questions to understand the current status of their project and tasks assigned. We get so used to asking the same questions that it becomes a habit: What's the status on this? How are we getting on? Perhaps it's time to look at some other questions to assess the health of your project. Are you team members happy? Are they able to do their work without being impeded by others? What are they most looking forward to in delivering this project? During this webinar we'll explore the questions that you should be asking as a Project Manager to determine the real status of the project.
The Internet of Things, Smart Devices, Brilliant Factories, and a Digital Thread are all concepts with the future of Manufacturing for the 21st century. What do these concepts mean? And what role will project management play in delivering the value that companies seek in these investments?
