Years ago a friend who recently graduated with an MBA asked me for resources on how to learn project management, as she started her career as a project manager. Even though I had worked for Andersen Consulting – now Accenture – and they had wanted to me to move into project management before I left, I just did not have a process to approach Project Management. It’s something I just did based upon how I observed others doing it, sometimes wanting to do the exact opposite. This is the article I wish I would have read back then.
