All good Project Managers maintain a Daily Log (written or mental) in which they record informal issues, required actions or significant events and lessons learned that have not been caught by other project artefacts. It acts as the project diary if they ever were to be hit by a bus!
It is from my own personal diary that I intend to share with you some of the lessons learned, better practices I have come to rely so heavily on, hints and tips to make project management less of a black art and finally to share anecdotes and situations that demonstrate the points I want to make. It will obviously be de-sensitised to protect those I have had the privilege to work with but without diluting the key messages and learnings.
I proactively would like to encourage you to post comments and share your own experiences too - the interactivity from sharing is what drives the value.
I've personally had plenty of experience blogging over the last couple of years (check out Not So Grand Design) so this blog should start to fill up pretty quickly therefore please drop by on a regular basis, or alternatively join the blog, follow me on twitter or simply add me to your LinkedIn network to get all the latest news feeds directly on all things Project Management related.
Warm wishes
