Every project is a little bit different, each with its own unique set of objectives and desired outputs. Each may also see you and your team working with several different departments as you strive to create a finished product. It’s working with those different departments that makes project integration management a necessity. Without this type of management, it can be difficult to ensure that all teams are communicating well, and that processes are flowing as they should be.

What’s the difference between a project manager and a technical project manager? It might be easy to assume these are just two ways to refer to the same general job, but that isn’t the case here. Technical project managers fill a crucial role for certain teams and projects, bringing skills, knowledge, and leadership to the table that standard project managers don’t usually have.

Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for agencies to experience bouts of poor resource management which can lead to poor performance and dissatisfied employees and clients (which is never good!).

If you work in an agency or do any client work, your world likely revolves around your inbox. But what happens when what your world revolves around is completely and utterly...chaotic? Enter, inbox overload. In fact, it's more likely that most mornings you don’t even want to “enter” your inbox for fear of what you might find, or fall behind on! All joking aside, it is something to take seriously.

Effective resource management is a key component of any successful business, but it’s particularly important for teams that deliver client work. Why? Well, when you’re juggling multiple projects at a time and have hard client deadlines to hit, efficient resource management becomes core to what you do. Want to reap the benefits of increased transparency within your team, maximize efficiency, and also prevent burnout? It starts by getting your resource management problems in check.

Every project needs a plan. But sometimes, even the best, most carefully drafted plans need to change. That’s the basic premise behind agileproject management, a project managementmethodology that’s wildly popular among software development teams. In 2021, 86% of software development teams were using agile, and it's quickly becoming the dominant practice in industries where iteration and flexibility are essential.

Marketing teams bring so much to the table within an organization — but they aren’t typically known for their militant scheduling and detailed organizational skills.

On the flip side, project management as a discipline doesn’t have much of a reputation for being creativity-friendly or flexible.
