Helping companies and teams eliminate waste, accomplish more and improve the way they work with better project and work management systems.
Stop thinking about a milestone as a process. It’s an event. A milestone is binary: YES (Done) or NO (Not Done). That's the only metric that matters. Use this clarity to measure real progress in your project. #PMguy #ProjectManagement #mondaymagic
Most of us who work in organizations desire more autonomy and more influence. Greater autonomy, however, requires greater responsibility. It's a two way street. The more your team trusts your work and your decision-making, the more autonomy you will receive. It's really that…
Every extra meeting, process, or tool is a tax on project momentum. Simplify. Simplify. Simplify.
AI will take over more and more of the production work. But great project and product managers will still be invaluable: The ones who can communicate clearly, align teams, and distill what’s next.
A simple filter for reducing meeting waste is to give people a clear path - If you are not adding value or receiving value during the meeting, leave. No need to ask.
Complexity often hides in the everyday. When teams simplify their checklists, consolidate processes, and remove unnecessary manual work, they reclaim time for higher-value problem solving and creativity. Real progress often starts with subtraction, not addition.
The hardest part of project leadership isn’t strategy. It’s restraint. Knowing when not to add another project, process or meeting.
If your process needs a process to manage it, it’s time to prune. Relentlessly ask - does this 'thing' really need to exist? How can we simplify?
Poignant quote from Susan Scott’s book - Fierce Conversations. Simply put…words matter. We can all do better. “For a leader, there is no trivial comment...Each time we speak, each time we send an email or text, we leave an emotional wake. We soothe panic attacks or cause them,…
The hardest part of project leadership isn’t strategy. It’s restraint. Knowing when not to add another project, process or meeting.
Companies that execute well aren’t chasing the next shiny tool. They’re intentional, grounded in their values, and focused on the long term. That’s what keeps them moving with purpose instead of reacting.
Speed to market requires decision velocity. Excessive project delays are often a function of slow decision making. If you’re leading a project, define the decision chain from the outset - who will decide what and by when. Get crystal clear on how decisions will move through your…
Here’s a modern dilemma: New promising tools are coming out every day - which is great. But if we start adopting every new tool we like, we risk losing continuity across the team. How are you making sure you’re intentional about managing your tool stack?
The moment your “process” becomes the work, the real work gets put on the back burner. Simplify. Then watch your momentum return.
This quote changed me: "Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away." – Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
The best project plans aren’t long documents. They’re honest conversations about capacity, timelines, and what “done” really means.
When there is a lack of clarity, people waste time and energy on the trivial many. When they have sufficient levels of clarity, they are capable of greater breakthroughs and innovations – greater than people even realize they ought to have – in those areas that are truly vital.
It’s convenient to just send a message and move it off your plate. But that convenience often comes at someone else’s expense. Protecting your team's focus means being thoughtful about when and how we communicate.
The real test of project leadership isn’t how hard you push. It’s how clearly you align. Relentless external pressure creates distraction. Quality suffers. Clarity, space, and self-imposed pressure create progress.
Process should serve progress, not become the focus. When teams start optimizing for systems instead of outcomes, momentum slows. The customer and the product should always be the thing that drives attention and energy. Where has “process” started to get in your team’s way?
