205: Process vs. Principles: A Debate

PMI Talent Triangle: Ways of Working (Technical Project Management)

Hey, IMPACT Driver!

Recently, I was part of a fabulous debate at the University of Maryland Project Management Symposium. The UMD team has a special place in my heart because they’ve been the host of the Project Management Day of Service since our second year so many years ago now! 

UMD is a staunch supporter of the power of Project Management and what better way to showcase the variety of ways that project people can show value than a friendly debate between two industry leaders? 

It was so much fun! 

I had the pleasure of debating with my friend and fellow thought leader Crystal Richards.  

We tackled the age-old question facing so many project people: Is it better to have a process-first or principles-first approach to projects? 

In this episode, you’ll learn why I believe that if you really want a seat at the leadership table to drive meaningful business value for your organization, there’s one approach that gets you there a lot faster than the other.  

I won’t give it all away here, but I can’t wait to see what you think after you listen to this episode, so let me know! You can find posts about it on LinkedIn. 

Enjoy!
