Come to my seminars!

If you are going to NA Global Congress, you should really stay a couple of days and come to my seminar. Or, come out to NYC in November and participate there, and see the sites on Times Square!

I'm back... been an interesting 14 months

After a 14 month hiatus, I am back. Since July 2009, I was pulled into a lot of doing both professionally and personally, which left me with no time to add to the blog.

Since July of 2009, I've been busy at my day job, leading a long ERP system selection project, then the pre-work project for an SAP implementation before turning it over to an experienced SAP project manager. I've also spoken or presented at PMI congresses and SeminarsWorld events in the US and Australia, and also attended and presented at an academic research conference in Australia.

This October will be a repeat of 2009: Busy. I will present a seminar after the North America Global Congress (Oct 13 - 14), then the following week I am off to Taiwan to teach as a visiting professor for the International University of Monaco's Master's in Project Management program. More speaking and teaching in November, too for PMI nationally and the Milwaukee, WI chapter's annual Professional Development Day.

I continue to teach for UC-Irvine, Lakeland College and UW-Platteville, although this fall I have a semester off from Platteville as their new full-time faculty member takes on some course load.

Back on the work front, I am diving deep into Agile project management both from a practioner and academic perspective, as I lead a software development project using Agile as well as develop our IT department's Agile PM methodology. I'm hoping to get back in the habit of regular and hopefully thoughtful posting again.
