 Collaboration, collective intelligence, social business and innovation are some of the hottest topics of this blog. And how much hotter does it get, if they get combined? You can check that out for yourself by attending the upcoming E2 Innovate Conference in Santa Clara, CA. On November 14, I will be speaking about open innovation and the benefits a social enterprise can reap through applying this model. My co-presenter is Damon Gragg, global project manager at Thermo Fisher Scientific. He has a lot to share on how open innovation helps his company be the global leader in scientific and healthcare equipment.

 A new tool came to our lives and greatly influenced the way we communicate. Twitter turned out to be next big thing of the social media world, and it looks like it’s here to stay. How can we explain Twitter’s immense popularity? Simplicity, convenience, speed? I’d say it’s all three of them that make the tool so sticky. In fact these factors even made many of us seek a similar tool to facilitate our project communications.

Mistake #5: Poor interactions within your team and with clients
The last, but not least, most common mistake project managers make when managing multiple projects is inefficient communications.

I met Phil Simon, the author of "Why New Systems Fail: An Insider's Guide to Successful IT Projects" about a month ago. He told me that he was working on a new book that will be focused on Enterprise 2.0, cloud computing, SaaS and other next-generation technologies that are much talked about, but are not yet understood by everyone in the corporate environment. I found the idea appealing and thought that it would be valuable for you to get to know Phil’s point of view on these popular topics here at the Project Management 2.0 blog. Later on, I plan to review Andrew McAfee’s “Enterprise 2.0: New Collaborative Tools for Your Organization's Toughest Challenges ” in this blog, so it will be even more interesting to compare the two viewpoints.

 What project management blogs do you read? I’ve assembled a list of blogs that give me substantial food for thought when I write on innovations in project management. The list also includes blogs that serve as great sources of information about Enterprise 2.0, new management methodologies, leadership, motivation, as well as useful project management tips you can use in your day-to-day job. I hope these resources will help you take a look at your management practices from another point of view or perhaps even push you to radical changes in the ways you manage your projects and teams. I wrote a short summary for every blog, so that it would be more convenient for you. Enjoy!

 At the PMI Global Congress that I attended in October, I met many project management practitioners. Some of them asked me about my views on Project Management 2.0. One of the questions was “How is Project Management 2.0 different from what many organizations have today?”
I decided to summarize my answers and came up with a short list of key factors that distinguish Project Management 2.0 from traditional project management.

 Today, I entered the IT Blog Awards 2009 held by ComputerWeekly.com. My blog is nominated in the project management category, and I hope you’ll be able to support me in this contest. This is a U.K.-based blogging competition open to blogs that are originated outside of U.K. I think the ComputerWeekly Blog Awards is a great initiative that will help professionals from IT and other industries find the best authors, sharing their real life experience and useful tips. By the way, my fellow blogger Elizabeth Harrin, the author of the PM4Girls blog, won the best IT Project Management blog award from ComputerWeekly.com last year.
