  • PPP 328 | Why You Need to Know about LogFrame, with Terry Dean Schmidt

    14/07/2021 Duración: 37min

    Strategic Project Management There's a good chance that right now, as you listen to this episode, you’ve been tasked with delivering something that feels big. Perhaps even intimidating. Even if this isn’t you right now, it will be eventually, and today I can’t wait to introduce you to an approach that can help lead you out of the fog. Terry Dean Schmidt is the author of Strategic Project Management Made Simple. Though that title might sound like it’s over-selling--that strategic projects can be made simple--I think you’re going to find Terry’s approach to be something that is straightforward and can apply to just about any type of project and life cycle.

  • PPP 327 | What is Sustainable Project Management? A Conversation with Rich Maltzman

    06/07/2021 Duración: 32min

    Sustainable Project Management Insights One of my favorite voices on how to lead projects is Rich Maltzman. Rich contributed to A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK® Guide) Seventh Edition in the areas of sustainability and value delivery. In this episode, Rich talks about what sustainable project management is (and isn't). Perhaps more importantly, he talks about what we can do at our level, especially when we feel we don’t have much influence to make a difference. And Rich shares some project and career lessons that he’s gleaned over the years. It’s a great discussion with a guy I consider a friend. Here are some resources that Rich mentions during the interview: His book Green Project Management, co-authored with David Shirley His book How to Facilitate Productive Project Planning Meetings: A Practical Guide to Ensuring Project Success, co-authored with Jim Stewart His blog on projectmanagement.com Let's Stay In Touch!

    22/06/2021 Duración: 44min

    Two Interviews in One I've been looking forward to sharing this interview with Dana Brownlee for many weeks. In many ways, it's two interviews wrapped up into one. We start by talking with Dana about her book entitled The Unwritten Rules of Managing Up: Project Management Techniques from the Trenches. It's a book packed with insights to help manage those who manage us! But I didn't want to miss the opportunity to have a conversation with Dana about race. She's a valued voice in my life on many topics--including race--and I so appreciate the insights she shares with us today. Learn more about Dana and her work at https://professionalismmatters.com/. Also, check out her YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfFT3dbydRwGM2_qBz-lt_A.

  • PPP 315 | The Voice in Your Head, Why It Matters, and How to Harness It, with author Ethan Kross

    29/01/2021 Duración: 44min

    Evidence-based Ways to Stop Ruminating and Worrying After working with hundreds of coaching clients from around the world through our Leadership Fast Track Program, I can confidently say that I probably know who your worst critic is. Yep, it’s probably you. People leading teams and projects typically have plenty to worry about. We ruminate about the past and can stay awake at night about risks that are lurking. Those voices in our head--that chatter, so to speak, can start to weigh heavy on us, and current events in the last year certainly haven’t made this easier. In this episode, I have a conversation with Ethan Kross, author of a new book entitled Chatter: The Voice in Our Head, Why It Matters, and How to Harness It.

  • PPP 314 | How Men Can Be Better Allies for Women in the Workplace, with authors David Smith and Brad Johnson

    21/01/2021 Duración: 01h03min

    Being Allies for Women in Project Management Project management is a fantastic career path for us all, and especially women. As much progress as women have made in the workplace, there remain many barriers that, quite frankly, many men are blind to. In this episode, we’re going to focus on this in a way that I hope you will find empowering, encouraging, and actionable. It’s not a discussion that is blaming or shaming men. It’s about helping us see that there’s work to do, and I think both men and women are going to walk away from today’s discussion with ideas you can take action on right away. My guests in this episode are David Smith and Brad Johnson, authors of the new book Good Guys: How Men Can Be Better Allies for Women in the Workplace.
