    What I Learned This Week We continue our series of short videos talking about an idea or observation that was learned this week. In American football, a quarterback sometimes needs to make an audible. Back in the huddle, they called a play, but now that they see how the defense has lined up, they see an opportunity to make a change.

  • PPP 165 | Why MacGyver Would Be a Great (and Happy) Project Manager

    08/02/2017 Duración: 46min

    Constraints are.... Good? Timeframes. Budgets. Staffing. Project managers constantly face confounding constraints on their journey to deliver a project. Constraints limit our options.

Scott relates why being MacGyver-like, adaptable to the constraints we encounter, can help us not only be more successful, but happier as well.

    24/11/2016 Duración: 53min

    Project Managers Influencing Without Authority Increasingly, project managers need to influence but do so without authority.
