Discussing Innovation at Silicon Valley Product Camp

Andrew Filev , Thursday, April 07, 2011 comment Comments (2)
Soon after giving a speech at the Web 2.0 Expo conference, I headed to another event – Silicon Valley Product Camp – for a day of interesting discussions on designing better products. It has become a good tradition for me to attend this get-together, and this year my company, Wrike, was one of the sponsors of the Product Camp.

Since at this “unconference” the participants themselves vote for the topics they want to hear, it was a pleasure for me to have my proposal chosen on the event day. As usual, the camps are much more interactive than a typical conference, so it was fun. The audience loved the topic and brought up great questions and ideas.

Traditionally, spring is the busy season for various events, and my schedule is really tight these days. On Tuesday, I took part in the Web 2.0 Expo in San Francisco, where I gave a speech on efficient ways of delivering innovative software to business users. I was especially inspired because the practical tips that I shared were based not only on industry anecdotes, but also on the story of my own company. Thank you to everyone who was there!

“Email is Dead…” To Be Continued at Enterprise 2.0 Conference 2010

Andrew Filev , Thursday, November 26, 2009 comment Comments (1)

I recently submitted a presentation to be featured at the Enterprise 2.0 Conference 2010 in Boston. My session will be called “Popular to Ubiquitous: How to Skyrocket Adoption.” In this future session, I plan to develop the ideas that I previously mentioned in my “Email is Dead… Long Live Email!” slide deck. By the way, my “Email is Dead” presentation was marked as “Hot on Facebook” and placed on slideshare.net home page, since the slide deck was talked about on Facebook more than any other document on SlideShare at some point. I really hope that the talk about skyrocketing adoption will generate even more interest.  

You can find the description of my session proposal at the Enterprise 2.0 Conference site and leave a comment there. I would really appreciate your support and feedback!

E-mail Is Dead…Long Live E-mail! from Enterprise2Open

Andrew Filev , Wednesday, November 18, 2009 comment Comments (10)
A couple of weeks ago, I took part in the Enterprise 2.0 Conference San Francisco. As usual, it was a very interesting event, and I was glad to make my contribution to the discussion. Below is the presentation I prepared for the Enterprise 2.0 conference’s Enterprise2Open session. My session was not meant to be just a regular speech. I wanted to create a discussion and share the stage with other E2Open participants. That is why many of the slides in the presentation contain questions to the audience.

Talking to Project Shrink about Project Management 2.0

Andrew Filev , Monday, November 16, 2009 comment Comments (1)
Bas de Baar from Project Shrink interviewed me at the PMI Global Congress and asked me about Project Management 2.0 and our project management software, Wrike. I tried to briefly explain my view on what the new trend in project management is about. My opinion may seem controversial to some of you, but I think it’s only natural. Project Management 2.0 is an emerging trend, and it constantly evolves.

Why Project Management 2.0 Is a Different Ball Game

Andrew Filev , Wednesday, November 04, 2009 comment Comments (42)
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.

Project Management 2.0 is Nominated for the IT Blog Awards 2009

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.

Networking, Education and Project Management Resources at the PMI Global Congress

Andrew Filev , Wednesday, September 30, 2009 comment Comments (0)


In the first week of September, I started getting ready for one of the biggest project management events of the year. I expect PMI Global Congress to be a very valuable experience. Though my view of project management is not canonical and sometimes generates hot debates around it, I do believe that PMI is doing a good job at building connections between project managers and allowing them to share their experience and skills with each other. PMI events play a significant role in moving the whole industry forward, and I’m happy to take part in one of these events this October in Orlando, Florida.
