April 13th 2018:Get Executives To Act For Project Success - Michael O'Brochta
Rick welcomes Michael O'Brochta back to the show announcing the release of his new book "How to Get Executives to Act for Project Success." Even world-class project managers will not succeed unless they get their executives to act for project success.

March 23rd 2018:The Man Who Changed My Career: Rob Thomsett
As a young project manager, I was becoming frustrated with the process. I was on the verge of quitting. I was literally walking through the book store looking at job titles wondering what to do next. I then came across a book called "Radical Project Management" by Rob Thomsett. It changed my entire career. It was the first book that taught me how to really approach project management while utilizing humor at the same time. It is also the first book that discussed Agile. I read the book cover to cover and have quoted from it in almost every speech since. I reached out to Rob as a young

March 09th 2018:Customizing Agile for Your Project or Team - Johanna Rothman
Too often, people and teams select an off-the-shelf agile framework. Well, if you’re a cookie-cutter team, that might work for you. But Johanna has seen too many teams struggle with ceremonies, collapse under the weight of the metrics, and fail to deliver anything useful in a reasonable amount of time. Their supposedly agile projects feel like a death march. Instead, you can design your agile and lean approach from principles, not frameworks. Rick will interview Johanna about how you can succeed with an agile approach that fits for you.
