Power Quotes From The Show

It's really lining up and having your systems, and processes, and resources in place that you're able to adjust for whatever it is that comes up.2023 is really all about those blocking and tackling written procedures and behaviors as we move to 2024.A project is a promise. It really is about coordinating the unknowable future events to deliver something of value.The real PM work is in not needing the last-minute save. Isn't that what we're all after? It's just a nice, calm, hassle-free experience. That's the ultimate gift to the client.I think great project management is intentional. It's not just showing up as Superman waiting for the bad thing to happen. It's better than that.
