Everyone interested in pursuing project management should subscribe to this blog. It consists of a team of PMs who regularly contribute posts devoted to the field of project management. There are countless topics related to all aspects of PM. Using the search engine, I randomly selected a few topics and I was surprised to find a list of resources for each one. I like the fact that these are experienced PMs sharing their experiences as well as tips and advice on successful project management.
The title of this blog caught my attention, “Herding Cats.” I found it to be a very informative blog, once again by a PM expert. The premise of his blog is to provide ideas, practices, and resources that increase the likelihood of project success. His blog shows evidence of utilizing researched-based practices. He also provides quick and easy tips that make PM easier.
I really liked the layout of this blog. Topics are organized into categories and easy to locate. There are numerous resources on cost management and estimation. From articles to step-by-step guides, this site makes the daunting task of creating a project budget feasible. I especially liked the job listings feature as well as the fact that it stays updated on current trends in project management.
Can't get enough? This website contains the top 25 project management websites:
