A 30 Year Old Christmas Secret

A 30 Year Old Christmas Secret

12/19/2017 by Jackie Dembinsky Tags: FastTrack Schedule, Merry Christmas, project management, Santa, Secret

For 30 years, we have kept a secret. On Christmas Eve in 1987, Santa visited AEC Software Inc.’s office… when we were still celebrating our annual Holiday party and the upcoming launch of a brand new product (FastTrack Schedule). The poor man was so upset. He was already behind schedule with deliveries and thanks to […]

3 Keys to Keeping Projects on Time

3 Keys to Keeping Projects on Time

04/15/2016 by Brad Egeland Tags: keeping projects on time, project management, project schedule, project timeliness

Timeliness. If there was one word to define project management with, that might be it. We have timelines, delivery deadlines, meetings, etc. Everything happens according to a schedule. There isn’t that much creative about it. There is, but it still involves a schedule and a timeline. When we run into our CEO in the hallway […]

Project Managers: Managing the Right Way on Our Projects

Project Managers: Managing the Right Way on Our Projects

02/03/2016 by Brad Egeland Tags: project leader, project leadership, project management, project manager

Project management is not just about experience, leadership and organization. It is also about management style, interpersonal relationships, conflict management, task delegation and communication. But I think most of us who are battle-tested realize that by now. It isn’t always about having the right technology experience or even hands-on experience, though I feel – at […]

The Business Analyst in the Role of the Project Manager

12/08/2015 by Brad Egeland Tags: business analyst, project management, project manager, project schedule

There is always a chance – depending on the organization structure and project load on the project managers available – that this could be happening in any organization.

Some projects experience some disastrous situations and you wonder, “Can this project be saved?” Maybe not out loud in front of the project client, but you do wonder it. Some can be fixed, some can’t and some take some alternate routes to get back on the road to success. The act of actually throwing in […]

What if Things Don’t Go Off According to the Project Plan?

10/27/2015 by Brad Egeland Tags: project management, project manager, project plan, project planning, project schedule

Does your day usually go exactly how you planned it would go when you hit the shower in the morning? Does it ever? Why should we expect something different from the projects that we manage? The teams that we manage? T/he customers that we engage? So many variables. So many things that can go wrong […]

Considering a career in project management or know someone who is considering such a move? Are you ready? Are they ready? And what does it actually mean to be ready? What steps do you need to take to get to that point? Other things to consider… Are you being thrust into the role, or do […]

Removing Unproductive Project Resources

Have you ever had a project resource that wasn’t really contributing? Who am I kidding…if you’ve managed more than 10 projects, chances are you’ve run into this. You know the ones…their contribution is low or non-existent. They aren’t serving a purpose on the team. It may even have been their last ditch effort to show […]

Control. We all like to be in control of what we are living, managing and doing on a daily basis, right? Both personally and professionally. At least it’s the goal.
