Almost everything at work and in life is a project.
Do you ever feel like life is just a series of never-ending projects? In a certain sense, you are not wrong. Everything from cleaning out the fridge to launching a new initiative or product can be considered a project, which is why learning more about effective project management is a game-changer. Antonio Nieto-Rodriguez is a project management champion and he has just the insights we need about how to manage our projects.
Antonio is the Director of the Project Management Office at GlaxoSmithKline Vaccines and the founder of the Brightline Project Management Institute. He is the author of The Focused Organization, and in his new book, The Project Revolution: How to Succeed in a Project Driven World, he sheds light on the shift to the project economy and how we can best manage that.
We often don’t realize how much of our lives are based on completing projects to get to the next stage or milestone, or how small things can, over time, derail a project. Antonio shares some of the things to look out for to avoid this, as well as the two things we need to have to ensure a greater chance of success at completing our projects — clarity and capacity. He reveals how we can determine which projects are a priority, and the elements of a Project Canvas and why it works in helping individuals, teams and companies be more effective, more successful and more innovative.
