August 2005 What's New

We have long held that insufficient attention has been paid to the design of a sound project life span by project management aficionados. Jason Charvat has written a whole book on the subject, except he calls them "methodologies". In Musings we discuss his book in Methodologies: A Metaphor and in Papers we review his book Project Management Methodologies one of the few books on this subject.

This month we've added a number of new Job Description Issacons: 1013a Project Management Methodologies; 1013b Technology Management Methodologies; 1276a Chief Project Officer; 1276b Project Portfolio Manager; 1277a Strategic Project Office Director; 1280a Project Controller; 1281a Project Office Administrator or Project Officer; 1282a Communications or Public Relations (PR) Planner; 1283b Project Team Member; 1284a Program Manager; 1287a Project Management Mentor; 1290a Systems Analyst; and 1290b Business Analyst. We've also updated 1004c2 Project Portfolio Management and 1290 Project Scheduler/Project Planner.
