Episode 167: The Lazy Project Manager

This week The PMO Podcast™ Featured Story introduces, “The Lazy Project Manager” presented by Mark Perry (about Mark), host of The PMO Podcast™. Recently, I had the pleasure of reading a fun little book called The Lazy Project Manager, by Peter Taylor, a PMO manager and author in the UK. Would you like to be twice as productive and leave the office early? If yes, listen on because that is what this book promises to the reader. The PMO Podcast™ Points Memo suggests, “True leaders don’t play politics." Have you ever worked with a person that spends more time managing their career than they do the business? These folks are bad enough to work with and they can even be worse to work for. Nonetheless, in just about every organization, especially larger ones, you will find the politicians. They may rise quickly through the organization, but always, sooner or later, it is merit, not politics that prevails. The PMO Podcast™ Mailbag answers a listener question about whether or not EVM can be used on software and agile projects.
