We Want to Help You Achieve Project
Success
The focus and purpose of Project Success Tips is helping project managers and business organizations
improve their rate of success in managing projects.
Why? Because projects are how strategy gets implemented and
new capabilities come into being. Because project management is a demanding and increasingly important aspect of
business.
Those of us in the profession are constantly seeking ways to
get become better as project managers for those reasons just mentioned - and, by so doing, make our business
projects more successful.
So Project Success Tips brings you insightful information and
useful tips on increasing project success. Here's how:
- First, the website focuses on project management success and provides
information on how to make that happen. In our articles, you will
find tips based on the personal experience of myself and others who have learned in the trenches about failure
and about success. We study which principles and practices result in the most successful projects, and then we
write about them for the benefit of others.
- Second, we've added a
blog to allow the publisher, Raymond Posch, to write more
frequently and informally about observations on project management. It also allows you, our readers, to
interact by leaving your comments about articles and blog posts.
- Our free email newsletter goes out weekly, and we are
now keeping it shorter so you can scan it more quickly. You can link to full articles that are of
immediate interest - or you can come back later when you have time. Email newsletters are still great because they come
to you, and they remind you to open and read
them.
- Finally, we will continue to seek out and publish articles by other experts,
project managers, and writers. We especially want to include insights from project managers based on real
firsthand project experiences.
If you are new to the site, sign up for the
free Project Success
Tips newsletter, and it will be in your inbox every Monday morning giving you useful information
and tips for project success.
Our goal at Project Success
Tips is to give you useful observations and insights to put you
on the project management "success track".
Please give us feedback on Project Success Tips - see the post "Comments ...
welcome" on the blog. We want to know how we can best serve you.
