Today, companies are engaging not only local/domestic assignment but global projects. The number of global projects is increasing and global projects are more challenging compare to those of locals. Global Projects are hard because of Time zone difference, having a Face-to-face meeting, Language problems, cultures.. If we can solve those problems, stress free global project management.

2009 Summer Global Project Managemnt Presentation Communication with no Boundaries

No boundaries for communication on Global Projects

Global business is growing faster, Offshore development, globalization, oversea branches and trading with other countries. Even though now we are using Video Conference, emails, we are not satisfied with those tools. The problems are lack of appropriate tools, different regulations. Our dream is to have a Technology Framework that opens a Door to anywhere(Dokodemo Door). We need to Create some place to share multichannels of information.

Technology and Communication on Global Projects

Global Projects are impacted by communication. The problem is that the majority of project managers spend alot of time on communicating but there is not enough information sharing. Global Project Managers need to flatten the organization to improve the communication. How to solve the problem is to introduce more realtime communication tools like Google Wave which can support voice, video data and IT Office tools.

Creating a Knowledge Cloud

Senior Japanese Project Managers from diverse industries, such as finance, networking, construction, mobile communications.... converge together at PMBOK Cafe to collaborate and discuss with each other about the future of Global Project Management. This Facilitated Workshop used the Best practices from The Project Management Book of Knowledge. Specifically, the new tools and techniques in the Scope Collect Requirements were utilized.

This video is part of the Brainstroming Process. PMBOK Cafe describes it as a knowledge cloud. A knowledge cloud sorts ideas and discusses the relationships between ideas. Images are added to encourage visualizing information. The Sticky Notes are 16 peoples different ideas, and this team is discussing the different ideas with the purpose of uncovering deeper knowledge about an idea.
