Reading through my Feed this morning, I’m reminded of this real example of what could happen when you shoot the messenger rather than listen to the message. And I wonder if some of these now shelved projects we read about had a similar moment. Kind of makes you wonder what might have been. Unless you’re rolling in cash, every project is critical and every project is important. That’s why you can’t afford to put all of your eggs into the rose-colored basket of optimism bias. It’s also why just having good project controls isn’t enough- you need an organization that uses these tools and processes and individuals. No-one wants to be the bearer of bad news. But neither do they want their name associated with yet another case study of why projects fail. #projectmanagement #projectcontrols #projectservices

Hello all Project Managers out there. I’m curious—how did you kickstart your career in project management? Did you work your way up within a company, or did you enroll into a study program or get certified first? I am looking for study programs that would help me get PM roles in in the HV cable / renewable energy market. Do you think a course like this would make a difference? Or to you have advice on other courses I should look into? https://lnkd.in/gYhnQBzS Any insight is much appreciated.

📊 BP Oil's 1995 Solution to Project Management Challenges In 1995, BP Oil faced several project management issues: • 👥 Loss of experienced staff • 🔄 Frequent dismantling and rebuilding of project teams • 🌱 Lack of new talent development • ❓ Uncertain future project workloads These problems are still common in many companies today. Who says history doesn't repeat itself? To address these issues, BP created the Project Management Praxis. This was a 💿 CD-ROM containing important project information. Yes, a CD-ROM - the 90s were wild! The Praxis included: 1. ✅ Detailed Checklists: • Covered all project stages • Listed over 1000 steps for different project areas 2. 📚 Reference Library: • Contained more than 6000 pages of documents • Included BP's guidelines and industry best practices 3. 💻 Information Management Software: • Linked checklists to relevant documents • Allowed users to add notes and bookmarks BP's goals for the Praxis were to: • 🧠 Keep important project knowledge • 🤝 Share expertise from experienced team members • 🔍 Make information easy to find and use This approach helped BP maintain project management knowledge even as teams changed. It also helped new project managers learn from past experiences. Many companies today still face similar challenges. While technology has changed, the need to preserve and share project knowledge remains important. 📖 I encourage you to read the full 1995 article about BP's Project Management Praxis. It's surprisingly relevant, and hey, it's a great way to look busy while avoiding that project status meeting! #ProjectManagement #KnowledgeManagement #CorporateMemory https://lnkd.in/djnY7dbm

A watermelon project is a term used in project management to describe a project that appears to be green on the outside (i.e., the project status is reported as being on track and progressing well), but is actually red on the inside (i.e., the project is behind schedule and facing significant issues).
