    This is a personal preference for a PM. My suggestion is to ensure that everyone on the team has access to it otherwise you lose accountability very quickly. There are lots of good software out there. Because I interact with so many different companies, with different budget and needs I tend to use excel as everyone has this and I don’t have to train anyone. Hope this helps.

    Look at what is being said with some detachment. Don’t link the comments to you personally. Try to understand where they are coming from…strategy and plans you may not be aware of??? Speak to your manager about this and ask for neutral feedback from someone who understands the players and situations and be open to feedback.

    Terms all project manager know and understand! 1. Have you got a fag packet to put my estimate on? 2. Supplier yes of course we will finish on time 3. Customer demands gold plated requirement on tinfoil budget 4. Deployment stage is the new requirements stage according to Customer 5. BAU = breaking a unique-product 6. When it goes wrong everyone blames the PM 7. Threats are what the sponsor projects to the PM after findings of benefit realisation. 8. Stakeholders are always experts and vocal after an output but less vocal in before an output in its development. 9. When something goes wrong everyone is an expert 10. PM is alway wrongs and everyone is always right!
