The Complex World of Project Management Methodologies and which one to choose.
There are various project management methodologies to choose from, such as Agile, Waterfall, and Scrum, each with its own unique approach and set of guidelines. The selection of the most suitable methodology depends on factors like the project’s scope, requirements, and team dynamics. Implementing a well-defined methodology not only ensures efficient project execution but also enhances collaboration and communication among team members. By following a specific project management methodology, teams can establish a clear framework for tasks and responsibilities, which helps streamline the project workflow. Agile, for example, is ideal for projects with evolving requirements, as it allows for flexibility and continuous improvement. On the other hand, Waterfall is better suited for projects with well-defined and stable requirements, where tasks are completed sequentially. Scrum, with its emphasis on short sprints and regular team meetings, promotes effective communication and adaptability. Ultimately, selecting the right methodology fosters a cohesive work environment and increases the likelihood of project success.

Enabling Content Management to Drive Business Outcomes

How the Office Will Change In 2021
It is the big question everyone is asking themselves, “how are things going to be different after the pandemic when we are back in the office?”

Project Management 2021
Organisations need to redefine how they run their PMO’s because those organisations that have such established processes in place are 24% more likely to provide end users/clients with a service that is ‘expected or better than expected’.

Business Model Innovation
Business Models can energise existing products and services with new cost, go to market and business approaches to exploit investment that may have already been made in past budgetary cycles. How this is done varies considerably depending on the organisation, product, service and people involved but there are upwards of 70-80 common models that can be utilised in order to lay siege to that illusive value that often gets hidden deep inside a tried and trusted product or service.

The Rise of the Machines

The Time To Change Is Now
Covid 19 has been a nightmare for many companies, if not all companies in one form or another. Obviously, a few have prospered but many have not performed at all and have struggled in the current financial climate.
When has there ever been a better time to change how your company operates and culturally behaves than now?

Commercialising Products and Services
Technology is everywhere in our lives both professionally and privately.
We all know we need it in varying forms. We also know that it provides professional and personal advantages if used correctly.
Email is a prime form of how many people now organise their lives with calendars and appointments providing a structural backbone of day to day existence both at work and privately.

The Hybrid Workplace
Flexibility, time management, travel costs, and when you finish for the day you are home immediately, unless of course you work at the bottom of the garden in a home office/cabin set-up. The problem with working from home is of course no one else works from your home.
