Add "Deliverables", "Procurement", "Statement of Work", "Contingency", "Risk Analysis". Also, if you could make a video just about Earned Value Formulas, that would be cool, too.

[@king0vdarkness]

Great video! I had a quick question, 2:12 what do you mean by relative progress? Is this your estimation of how you think the project should move forward from task to task?

[@Psoda]

Hi, good question. Relative progress is how far you've progressed against an agreed metric. E.g. you said it would take you 10 days to do something, you're 5 days in so your relative progress is 50%. This is different to actual progress, where you might be 5 days in but only completed 25% of the work. I hope that makes sense

[@AamerAli]

if i am talking about E-Archiving Project "being part of a project team" what should I tell the interviewer if i am in a job interview ? I can't waste their time telling them about project charter or stakeholders and all these details. so please let me know what points should I talk about while interview

[@Psoda]

Hi Aamer Thanks for your comment. What you would tell an interviewer depends on the role you’re applying for. If it’s a project manager position then you absolutely should talk about the project charter, stakeholder engagement, how you would manage the team and how you plan on delivering the project. That’s the kind of information the interviewer would expect. However, if you’re a team member things you can talk about in response to the being part of a project team question are: • How you managed your specific deliverables and communicated with the other team members • The tasks you were responsible for • Any activities you did to support the project manager I hope that helps.

Hi Andreas, thanks for the suggestion. You've created a great debate in the office this morning with this one! How do you define it? We have 2 camps - one saying it's separate to stage gates and the other saying it's part of a traditional stage gate so shouldn't be separate....

[@kristiyantsvetanov8082]

I am working for a company that uses Jira for managing tasks, releases, tests, etc. I believe Jira is really badly organized due to its flat structure of tasks(and not only) - they are all in the same place and the only way to find something is by using an advanced search, specifying status, type, some keywords, labels, etc.. I know there are far better tools than Jira nowadays, ClickUp, Asana and many more. However, I was not able to find a nice tool which allows your project to scale infinitely by utilizing a simple abstract tree structure. That is, - your project is a root node and it may have many child nodes - each child node can have child nodes and so on - each node is either a topic or a task - tasks may still have subtopics and subtasks - you can create custom roles and give access to a specific set of nodes and their subtree(for great flexibility when working with freelancers for example) - you can follow a certain set of nodes and receive notifications for any changes in them so that you don't accidentally miss something and at the same time you will not receive spam from topics you are not interested in (for example if I am a front-ender, I would not be interested in back-end design decisions or marketing/business strategies) - you can have a kanban board or a Gantt chart generated for a specific node(if a team/member is working only on a given topic at the moment which allows for better focus) - users can navigate through the tree as if exploring folders(topics) and files(tasks). You have a 2-column layout, the tree is on the left and the preview of the currently selected node is on the right. Clicking once on a topic/task previews it and if you click twice -> you enter it and see its child topics and tasks. Let's hope this sums up the idea well. What do you think? It is complex in order to accommodate complex projects and employee structures but is it TOO complex? Would you use it and if not, why? What else would you like to see? Thank you so much for your opinions and suggestions!! :)

[@nnallam]

CA Rally is good to use

[@Psoda]

Hi Kristiyan, that is a very interesting suggestion. With the exception of the 2-column layout this is exactly what Psoda (www.psoda.com) gives you. You get infinite levels in your hierarchy with Gantt charts and kanban boards at each level that automatically rolls up all the levels below. You also get an AI assistant to process photos of your physical boards to automatically add new cards and update your Psoda kanban.

[@kristiyantsvetanov8082]

Hello @@Psoda , thanks for your comment! I don't see why a two-column layout would be a problem though :) the more products that use it, the more accustomed users will become to it ;)

in this Video "kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXScl4itht6ln6c" you said PMBOK is a framework, where here at 2:41 you said this is the framework you used to manage the project, but Prince2 and Agile are Methodologies but not frameworks. which video to believe while I seeking your help through youtube ?

[@Psoda]

Hi Aamer, thanks for the comment pointing out the discrepancy. I see where the confusion's come from, it's in my turn of phrase. In the 12 terms video I used framework to mean conceptual structure, rather than the PMBoK definition of framework.

Hi Brave Coconut, most people have professional project management qualifications rather than a degree.

[@bravecoconut4028]

@@Psoda yea I guess that proves my point no?

[@Psoda]

I think I may have misunderstood your first comment. Are you talking about a degree in project management? Most PM people I know have a degree in their relevant area of expertise. E.g. civil engineering, computer science etc. and then follow that up with professional project management qualifications.

[@bravecoconut4028]

@@Psoda right. So the people who just directly get a pm degree should get a specialization first.

[@Psoda]

That's an interesting question. I've asked around the office and everyone here that knows people who have project management degrees did them at the post graduate level after a good few years of working in projects. Project management's a very marketable skill but I've taken a quick look at 30 project manager jobs on a local job website and none of them ask for a project management degree. They want project management experience and in some cases mention a relevant degree, but that's it. As to whether it's worth doing an undergraduate project management degree - that's really up to each individual to make that call.
