Project management is a complex field.
The industry is a new field and those who are new have to learn the language of “Lean project management” or “Agile Software development”. They also need to know how to manage a team to deliver projects on-time, on budget, with quality.
Are you ready to implement agile methodologies into your work flow? These agile project management solutions will help you get started. I started my career as a project manager and reviewed project management software. It was exhausting to sort through hundreds, if not hundreds, of online resources for project management advice in order to find quality information.
I had to understand industry jargon, navigate various project management certifications, and memorize workflows. I didn’t need to read about the daily life of a once-prolific project manager or scroll through a blog about project management tools that contained company updates.
I started to search through online project management resources in order to find regularly updated, high-quality content. My RSS feed contained less than 20% of the reviewed content.
These resources are mine and I’m now available to you.
