Ok..so we all already know how rapidly the Mobile Market has been growing and a lot of companies are jumping to the next level by taking their products/services/information over to Mobile. Look at the first blog here for appealing reasons to be on Mobile Web. Mobility is the mantra -> the speed at which new mobile websites are launching is very similar to the dot com boom.
Are you still stuck with that old traditional desktop site and do you still believe that it’s going to be enough for your business to sustain in the market with an ever-advancing technologically savvy customer base? If you answered “Yes” to that question...well maybe visiting a Mobile Web Blog isn’t a goo...

What's this buzz about Mobile Web
Siddhi Pathak, Project Manager : 27 May 2010 / 10:28 AM : 5
Everywhere I go these days, I see a Mobile Website or Smartphone application in commercials. Believe it or not our local smoothie store has a Mobile Website. So why is there such a rush of Mobile Websites?
The analysis is simple – fast moving consumers (even high school students) like to reach to information instantly: anyplace, anytime – all the time. Being an iPhone user, I can tell that even when I am at home, I like to pull up my iPhone for a quick information search rather than booting my laptop. It’s convenient and easy.
All of us can see the growth around us every minute of our lives. For those of you who would like to see numbers here are a few:

Michael Vick's on your team!

Michael Vick’s on your team!
In the not too distant future, you get a call from your program manager. Former NFL heavyweight Michael Vick has joined the company and is being assigned to your team. Do you – A. Panic and quit; B. Complain up the chain; or C. Be glad you have a star performer.
Obviously a rhetorical question, Michael Vick and people like him pose an interesting challenge for management, however, no matter how you view the recent debate on his reinstatement. On one hand, Mr. Vick is a high performing athlete who’s value to the franchise can be measured in his per annum salary that’s greater than that earned by probably 98 percent of the people alive today. On the other hand, he’s apparently morally challenged and his byzantine ap...

For the Successful Project Manager, the Cup is Always Empty
John Roach, Senior Project Manager : 21 May 2009 / 9:27 AM : 2
Is an empty glass better than a full one? We often use the example of a glass and water as an analogy to illustrate our position on whether or not someone is an optimist or a pessimist depending upon whether they see the glass as half full or half empty. There is, however, another analogy we can use involving a glass and water that digs a little deeper into how successful someone is at assimilating new information—and how they should be expected to respond when things really heat up. It goes something like this: a full glass cannot accept anything new-- whereas an empty glass can. A person can be said to be either empty or full depending upon how certain they are about the nature of things.
If we ourselves are full of ideas and preconceptions on how things should...

Repurposing Your Project Management Office (PMO)
Woody Walker, Director, Project Management Office : 11 May 2009 / 1:52 PM : 0
In an economic environment characterized by near unprecedented losses in business profitability, jobs and personal wealth, the average business professional is focused on keeping the lights on. With thousands of organizations faced with delivering an acceptable level of business with fewer and fewer resources, who can afford Project Managers or a Project Management Office (PMO) full of Project Managers and Project Administrators?
Some leaders may feel that project management is not critical to the operation and survival of their business and so the PMO is sometimes the first thing to be disbanded. Project Managers are laid off or re-purposed into other areas of the business. This critical mistake can lead to catastrophic impact on your business when your organi...
