Let us share the best practices and lessons learned in Project management for the benefit of new practitioners.

Suggested post title formats:
BP/Knowledge area, LL/Knowledge area, BP/Agile, LL/Agile.

Let us limit each points to one or two lines and make them sound like a proverb. These BP/LL may be from your experience or what your heard or read. Feel free to give a proverbial touch to the points shared by other members. Let us collaborate with our strengths.

Few of my BP/LL samples below.

LL/HR management:
Whenever you assign a task ensure that it is started.

LL/Scope management:
Vague SOW is the mother of scope creep.

BP/HR management:
Begin with team building when building a team.

Vasi,
