Comment on 3 TED talks that still blow my mind by PM Hut

Hi Elisabeth,

I love watching TED, and these 3 videos are very, very inspiring.\

PS: It’s also hard to watch TED at night because every time you watch something you are “instinctively” lead to watch another thing.

Ok, here is another take on this and further to my previous post…..

ALL OTHER THINGS BEING EQUAL, as a customer, I would rather have a PM that understands the technical aspects of the project over one that doesn’t. I seem to remember reading that you asked other PMs if they felt a PM should be technical or not…..what do we care what other PMs think, it’s what the customer thinks. I was recently part of an organization where customer satisfaction was paramount, relentless and continuous pursuit of customer satisfaction. They required their PMs to be technical becuase their customers wanted it. Customers like knowing their PM understands the technical stuff. ALL OTHER THINGS BEING EQUAL, wouldn’t you want your PM to also be technical?

Comment on If Kent Nagano doesn’t play violin, then why should a Project Manager be technical? by Elisabeth Bucci

Elisabeth Bucci — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 01:27:24 +0000

Kent Nagano studied music but is not a musician. He’s a conductor. I have a Bachelor in Engineering, but am not a practicing engineer. I’m a Project Manager.
Yes, the metaphor does work.
PS I could never replace Kent Nagano, or any conductor, as my daughters are fond of reminding me every time I sing to my iPod.
