I have witnessed the Project Management sector transform from what was arguably a technology-centric endeavor into one more affiliated with business-centric enterprises. To borrow from the late John F. Kennedy, the focus is no longer 'ask not what you can do with technology' but rather 'will this endeavor keep our company competitive?' I not only understand but embrace this new paradigm as consistent with a philosophy developed over the course of a 30 year Information Technology career.. My career and experience introduced me to the Project Management Institute's (PMI) PM Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) 'what'. I have gained a deep appreciation of this standard in order to dovetail with the business oriented 'why' and 'how' on project teams. Thus, I have been responsible for projects ranging from: Size, Budget & Duration • 8 to 24 multi-discipline personnel • $380,000 to $6.0 million • 6 weeks to 3 years Methodologies • Formal 'Waterfall' to Agile/Scrum methods • Hardware/Software Integration Functional Areas • Full SDLC from embedded software to Client-Server to Web based application • Cellular telephony switching and back office operations • Design, plan and scheduling formal performance testing A Project Manager's job is difficult at any time; we must work with multiple organizations and people who have differing perspectives, understanding and goals. To efficiently bridge such disparate groups, the Project Manager must use ethical, conceptual and analytical skills to effectively lead a successful project. Those skills comprise the very foundation of my career.
