Knowledge is organic, adaptive and created—it exists in the minds of people. A person’s store of knowledge is built from their life experiences, their observations, and their formal and informal learning. Consequently, what one person knows will be different to wha…

Though it is a well-worn cliché, many technologists probably are less people savvy, while great communicators must rub the glaze from their eyes at the site of code. And business vision may be better left to the MBAs in the executive suite.
It's unrealistic to expect any one person to …

I don’t have a classic project management background, so I spend a lot of time thinking about ways non-traditional project managers can offer up great ideas to people with more traditional backgrounds.
Sometimes I find that easy.
Sometimes I find that rather difficult.
I a…

Do really good ideas pop into your mind at the most inconvenient moments, like when you’re in the middle of taking a shower? This flash of bathroom brilliance presents two problems:
There’s no one to share it with (at least in our home).

Today I’d like to focus on “stakeho…

I thought this was a very timely and provocative post, since I’ve experienced this kind of behavior in the past and found it boorish:
Increasingly, I hear a lot of people using profanity at work and during meetings. And some of them are very senior people. It is usually to make a point and not directed at a particular person. I am not personally offended by this but I am not sure if it is appropriate business behavior (not that I am an expert in appropriateness by any means).
I am interested in what other people thing. I can see it being a way of making points and being dramatic but I also believe in knowing your audience and being sensitive to team members who may have a problem with it. I do it sometimes but generally with my door closed and someone that I am very friendly with and I know would understand (and likely who speaks the same way). So what the @#$% do you guys think?

But betwe…

I write about project management—a lot. But there’s a certain adrenaline rush that comes when you actually get to check out a project and get the scoop from people in the know.
I was feeling mighty pleased that I scored a backstage pass to the Berlin Brandenburg Ai…
