Learning

It’s been a while since my last post.

 

I am doing pretty well. Busy with work and with home, and with life.

The class I am taking is beginning to require a lot of thought. At first, I was reading and ingesting the concepts. As I posted before, I’ve finished the textbook and am now working on finishing the study guide.

I am trying to implement the process the book teaches. But I do feel a little like I’m flying blind. What does a “baseline” look like? that’s the only part that has no illustration.

 

But the other things have illustrations. They show what a Work Breakdown Structure is supposed to look like. And they show the Network Diagram. I can probably figure out how to do that.

I’m sort of confusing my co-workers though, because they have never seen anything like these mighty paradigms before. I am asking them to give input on how the things should be done before we do them.

“a naming convention? that’s a good idea.”

Yes, but…I want to have one, not just talk about the concept. And to have one before the start of the reconfiguration work.

Well, I guess that’s a big part of the project management world. Getting things done while not quite having any authority. And not taking too long to get them done…
