		<description><![CDATA[SpanishPMO is a Spanish-language project management blog run by Fermin de Rojas that focuses on elements within PM, namely methodologies, tools, jobs and coaching. A bilingual project management expert educated at Brighton University, Fermin was startled to find a wealth of PM blogs available in English, compared to the relative lack in his native Spanish, and decided to take care of such matters himself as a major audience seemed to be missing out. &#8220;I took for granted that everybody could speak english or at least could read it, but realised that there were very little information regarding Project Management in Spanish,&#8221; Fermin told us. &#8220;Bear in mind that there are 350 million Spanish speakers, mainly in Latin America, EEUU and Spain. &#8220;This is the main reason why SpanishPMO.com was born, a website focus in project management in spanish, specialized in articles of how to set up a PMO, methodologies like Prince2 and PMI, tools, cyber security, coaching, negotiation and leadership skills.&#8221; Fermin uses SpanishPMO as a portal in &#8220;specialized in articles of how to set up a PMO, methodologies like Prince2 and PMI, tools, cybersecurity, coaching, negotiation and leadership skills.&#8221; He says his audiences not only centers on those practising or interested in practising project management and leadership, but also those who work in an office environment. &#8220;I motivated to blog through my own goals of personal self-improvement and self-satisfaction. I want to evangelise the word of Project Management and Agile method in the Spanish mentality.&#8221; Fermin says his most ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The AFA blog is one of the most recently established blogs on PPM Community, premiering 1st November 2010. It&#8217;s company blog for AFA, established as a management consultancy organisation 15 years ago and since developing into a reputable training course provider. Alan Ferguson suggested AFA to PPM Community, as the blog updates 3-5 times per week. &#8220;As one of the most successful and well known project management specialists throughout the UK and Europe, AFA would like to give a unique insight into the mind of some of the most respected managers within the community and a unique &#8216;all access&#8217; view of our organisation,&#8221; he says. &#8220;We hope the AFA blog will give people an insight into practices for delivering change, including portfolio, programme and project management as well as AFA as an organisation. The newness of the blog creates an uncertainty as to where the content of the blog will lead over time, though change could be a key area of focus. &#8220;What will we be discussing? Of course we don’t know – that is the beauty of a blog,&#8221; Alan says. &#8220;When AFA was founded by me over 15 years ago the world was simple – we used project management. But as time has moved on we have all realised that we need more tools, methods, methodologies, disciplines, practices… Then there is programme and now portfolio management, offices, maturity models and a whole range of super-techniques: benefits, risk, value. And below all this sits the softer side of achieving ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[EarthPM&#8217;s oft-mentioned slogan is &#8220;at the intersection of Green and Project Management,&#8221; a power-packed credo for two veteran project managers left with an indelible imprint on the importance of resource sustainability. Rich Maltzman and Dave Shirley have worked primarily as project management practitioners in their respective 30 years of field experience, and in launching EarthPM they both have undertaken a regular publication they describe as &#8220;part altruism, part business idea.&#8221; More than that, environment-oriented projects and sustainability tap into a growing concern in world economic growth and prosperity, giving that business idea an opportunity like never before. Rich says that project management principles remain central to the goals of EarthPM because of their closeness to the medium. &#8220;We&#8217;re motivated to blog by news stories and other pm blogs,&#8221; Rich says. &#8220;Our site is devoted to the intersection of Project Management and &#8220;Green&#8221; &#8211; where green has to do with preventing climate change, preserving resources, and getting things done effectively and efficiently, which should already be flowing in the &#8216;green&#8217; blood of any project manager worth their weight in risk registers.&#8221; While they are unable to cite favourite posts or a most widely read post &#8211; &#8220;We have 125 posts, all with roughly equal readership&#8221; &#8211; they describe the blog in buzzwords that tap across all mediums affected by sustainable project management. Or &#8211; considering the buzzwords they used included &#8220;Eclectic&#8221;, &#8220;electric&#8221;, &#8220;executive-level&#8221;, &#8220;energizing&#8221;, and &#8220;engaging&#8221; &#8211; all the relevant ones that shared the same first letter as &#8220;EarthPM&#8221;!

		<description><![CDATA[The Back from Red Blog, is a popular project management blog which brings together thirty years of program and project management experience from Todd C. Williams. Back from Red started in August 2009 and gains its title from Todd&#8217;s experience in recovering &#8220;red projects&#8221; .&#8221;From this experience, I have developed a process to make recoveries more efficient and prevent their reoccurrence.  This experience provides a wealth of knowledge on avoiding project failure.&#8221; The Back From Red Blog focuses on the reasons for project failure.  The subjects range from technology to leadership, from teams to the individual.  They are intending to be thought provoking.  Each article is written to provide value to every reader.  Even if you do not agree with the content, the approach should make you think. The blog is not industry specific, although the examples are usually high-tech. The Back from Red blog is aimed at VP and C Level Directors, Project Managers and team members. Todd shares his experience in weekly blog posts and enjoys the whole writing process including the research prior to each post, his blogging approach has brought many avid readers and fans. Todd describes himself as focused on project audit and turn-around, he looks at projects that are failing or in trouble, identifies their real problems, drills down to the root causes and applies the corrective actions to get them moving again.  He saves organizations between 500,000 and three million dollars (US) per engagement.  Recently he signed a contract with AMACOM books to ...]]></description>
