In this episode of The Project Shrink Podcast I am addressing two questions concerning Project Managers and social media: what is the problem that social media is solving and why is it suited to tackle this problem?

This is an introduction to my talk at the PMI EMEA Congress in Amsterdam on the 20th of May called “Everything a Project Manager Should Know About Social Media”. If you visit the event, I would like to shake hands :)

Elizabeth Harrin is a Project Manager based in the UK. She is also the author of the “PM for Girls” blog. In this episode of The Project Shrink we are addressing this all important question: Is Project Management different for girls/women?

She has written the book “Project Management In The Real World”. In the second half of our conversation we talk about this great book.

I have said it before: every Project Manager should start a blog. It creates the right skill set for virtual and global project management and it helps your personal marketing.

In this episode of The Project Shrink I have the pleasure of talking to Stephane Grenier, author of “Blog Blazers”, a fabulous book for every type of blogger. He also runs a software company and has his own blog (of course).

I asked Stephane the following questions:

  • Most of my viewers are Project Managers and other professionals. How would you convince them to start a blog?
  • What are your personal 3 favorite tips you encountered during the book interviews on how to write successfully blog posts?
  • If people have one day of spare time, have the desire to start a blog, how would you recommend they arrange their day?
