Project Management
Project management is a broad topic. Here at Twennie we plan to focus on the newest thinking on the subject.
When you think about it, you'll realize that project management is a bit of a misnomer. You're not actually managing a project, but rather the people completing it. This might be why project management is such a challenging discipline to learn. People are not technology. People have habits that need breaking and attitudes that need adjusting, but if you look at it that way, you will surely make them less inclined to engage with the work in a constructive way. Managing people is always best done as a pull rather than push strategy, because people don’t like being pushed. Pushing just makes them slam on the mental brakes. They want to think that everything they do is in some way their idea, which is when they do their best work, by the way. That is the biggest challenge for the project manager – to engage people in ways that help them experience satisfaction and inspiration in their work. The work they produce under these conditions will speak for itself.
