As an "accidental" project manager, it's very satisfying to contribute to the project management community online with anecdotes and stories I've picked up from my own experience. I hope you enjoy our daily conversation.

I'm amazed at the wealth of knowledge available to project managers online.  With blog posts, webinars, user groups, podcasts, and forums—it's never been easier to learn best practices and implement them into your work management methodology.

I certainly enjoy the time I spend with my peers in person, on the phone, and online.  I think it helps me be better at what I do and inspires me to share with the rest of the community.  As I talk to other project managers about what makes them successful, it's rarely a discussion about on-demand project management software (although the right project management tools do contribute to project success).  It's usually about implementing sound methodology and best practice.

A New Podcast

I'm preparing to launch a video podcast and webinar series that will be dedicated to sharing these same ideas and was hoping that you would offer some suggestions as to the kind of topics we should talk about, the people we might interview, and even project management software vendors we might talk to.

Please feel free to comment on this blog with your suggestions for my upcoming podcast and webinar series.  I'm excited to hear back from you.

I would love to see a "guest panel" discussion on "what is strategic project management?" I find people react very differently to that phrase in different industries. If you are looking for guests, give me a call. I would love to have you as a guest on one of my web seminars, too.

Alex,

That sounds like a great idea. As we get closer, I will be reaching out to you to see if you would like to participate. I'm pleased that you would be interested in being a part of what we're doing.

Thanks again.

ADVERTISEMENTS

"Impartial observers from other planets would consider ours an utterly bizarre enclave if it were populated by birds, defined as flying animals, that nevertheless rarely or never actually flew. They would also be perplexed if they encountered in our seas, lakes, rivers and ponds, creatures defined as swimmers that never did any swimming. But they would be even more surprised to encounter a species defined as a thinking animal if, in fact, the creature very rarely indulged in actual thinking."

- Steve Allen
