In a past Business901 Podcast, One Page Project Manager Podcast, with Mick Campbell co-founder and Managing Partner of OPPM International, we discussed the most recent book in the series, The New One-Page Project Manager: Communicate and Manage Any Project With A Single Sheet of Paper.
The One-Page Project Manager sets a new standard as an understandable and easy-to-apply organizational tool, allowing managers to summarize complex projects on a single information-rich page. The third book in the OPPM series, The One-Page Project Manager for Execution: Drive Strategy and Solve Problems with a Single Sheet of Paper describes how to combine the OPPM with the Toyota A3 report to create an enhanced, integrated management tool.
There has been a project management theme this week on the blog so the transcription is a perfect wind-up for the week.

It might seem everything there is to know about project management already exists. But The One-Page Project Manager is something different. It is about communicating with those who are not part of the project, both inside and outside the organization. This constituency includes: the board of directors, senior management, suppliers, customers, superiors and subordinates indirectly involved with the project or its outcome, and others.
This slideshow demonstrates lots of ways of 'seeing' projects. Visualisation is an important tool for knowledge workers, including project
managers.

A talk about how to improve your UX design and implementation process to ensure the end product retains the beauty and integrity of your original concept.
UX Fest at Fresh Tilled Soil, Watertown, MA
Lean Design and Lean Construction Consultant, Trainer and Author, Alan Mossman of The Change Business was my guest on the Business901 podcast, We don’t use a Transactional Contract for Marriage, Why for Projects?
It is a well-known fact that Design Sprint is a very good technique – wonderful perhaps – but something incomplete (at least in its conception), that is for two reasons, 1.- it only allows you to concentrate on a single flow of a single product (what is not always optimal depending on the time and environment), and 2.- it facilitates you to fall into many inconsistencies that can end up affecting your entire UX process.
YOU CAN EXPECT TO LEARN:
* Ways to solve defects caused by focusing on a single flow of a single product
* What are the most common inconsistencies and possible ways to solve each of them
* Show a real case (my particular case) about how Sprint Design can be inserted in a UX macro process

WTF is a 'product-led' transformation anywayTim Malbon
A summary of what we at Made by Many mean by 'Change by making' and 'Product-led transformation', and the presentation I made on the subject at Google Firestarters
We talked about the evolution and interpretation of Lean and/or Toyota Production System (TPS) and their relationship with Scrum. It is interesting how they complement each other. In one sense, it is interesting how Scrum is hardly more than a PDCA cycle. But on the other hand it really enhances the PDCA cycle in the spirit of teamwork and flow.

How to make team collaboration suck less!Brian LaMee
Working with people can sometimes suck. You know how it goes, you have to get a team together, you hold countless (or pointless) meetings, nobody knows what the tasks are and who was supposed to do what, nobody can find the right documents or the right version and nobody can access any of the tools to share documents when you need them. This is usually the point where you just throw your hands up and scream, “FORGET IT, I WILL JUST DO IT MYSELF!”
But for most things, you can’t do it all by yourself. You need to collaborate with other members of your team, or other teams in the company or maybe even people outside your organization. Tools have always helped us make things suck less. The airplane made it suck less to get across the ocean, calculators made it suck less to do complex mathematical calculations and now the Cloud and Collaboration tools are making it suck less to work on projects and stay connected as teams.
Robin Lawton has been a long time favorite of mine. His book, Creating a Customer-Centered Culture: Leadership in Quality, Innovation, and Speed offers some valuable insights even though it was written 20-years ago. I still use it on a regular basis and find it valuable in assisting people to more service centered thinking. The podcast with Rob, Let’s Talk Voice of Customer is an excellent resource for both sales and marketers and quality professionals. This is a transcription of the Business901 podcast with Robin.
Ed Muzio, president and CEO of Group Harmonics was my guest on the Business901 Podcast. This is a transcription of the podcast, Creating a Great Workplace. We had a great discussion on his new book, Make Work Great: Super Charge Your Team, Reinvent the Culture, and Gain Influence One Person at a Time. He is a leader in the application of analytical models to group effectiveness and individual enjoyment. I thought it was a must listen for Kaizen Leaders and participants. Ed gives some great tips and tools that can be instantly implemented. I was very impressed on his ease of explanation and mastery of the subject.
This was a presentation that I gave at AdTech London 2008. Its about harnessing the power of online communities and digital advocacy.

Customer Value Mapping: Using customer value mapping to understand what custo...Business901
Customer value mapping is a qualitative approach that looks at the perceived value of a product or service from the customer’s perspective.
The Business901 Fractional Marketing Services allow customers to focus on their core operations while the business development and marketing experts at Business901 handle customer-facing campaigns. The plans are tailored to each business, considering each company’s existing capabilities, budget, and industry.
Business901 offers a unique combination of traditional and progressive methods to maximize customer growth. Social media campaigns, in-person and online events, and partnerships with industry organizations are all available, depending on the company’s needs. Additionally, Business901 utilizes AI-based tools to accelerate the sales and marketing process. This modern approach ensures that customers get the most out of their time and budget.
“At the end of the day, Business901 is focused on providing clients with the best experience possible,” said Dager. “We strive to give our clients access to the expertise and resources they need to succeed in their respective industries.”We act as teachers, consultants, strategists, or implementers. The program is designed around your desired deliverables with specific milestones and time frames to meet your outcomes.
Are you looking at growth through the right lenses? Or are you still operating in the Doom Loop? Is your disciplined actions focused on experimentation?
Jim Collins has been talking about the Flywheel Effect for many years and most of us (should) know the intricacies behind the concept. Reviewing the recent book Experimentation Works, author Stefan Thomke reinforces this effect through Booking's Growth Flywheel and his own 7 System Levers.
Expanding on just 3 of the 7 levers:
1. Scale: Number of experiments per week, months, or year
2. Scope: Extent to which an organization’s employees are involved in experiments
3. Speed: Time from formulating a hypothesis to completing an experiment
In the past, I have written about using the Lean trio of SDCA, PDCA, EDCA with an umbrella of CAP-Do or in Non-Lean terms; Standard Work, Continuous Improvement, Design Thinking (Exploration), and Reflection.
In the book, Cracked it!: How to solve big problems and sell solutions like top strategy consultants, the authors lay out their 4s Framework in much the same manner with a flowchart to guide you through the use of it. Their dive into each discipline is excellent. Enjoy the read.
The part of the framework that they took the time with that most problem-solving books don’t is the Sell Stage. Of course, I am partial to that area but even though I am, when doing it for myself, I often just think people get it. Everyone wants to grow revenue or save time and money?
I also like that though it is convenient to put documentation at the end and part of this stage, I took a little deeper meaning from it. The part of sustaining, and even improving again often rests on the idea of how we deliver/sell the results.
Branops - Making Your Story Your StrategyBusiness901
In BRANOPS, we scale by looking at marketing from a Growth Mindset. We don’t start with a complex market and try to work back by tweaking and modifying it.
Roles of Intuition & Rationality in Strategic DecisionsBusiness901
Author Julia Sloan in the book, Learning to Think Strategically, emphasizes the need for both a Creative and Rational balance in the approach.
Sloan says, "Without a well-honed intuitive sense, problem analysis can remain clinical, sanitized, and ineffectual, in that problems are exposed only superficially and analyzed without much, if any, examination of the “truthfulness” of their cause. Rationality then plays the critical role of identifying relevant information and analyzing facts." I find her approach the rest of the book equally enlightening.
This process reminds me of the Divergent/Convergent Design Think approach and equally similar to Disney’s Creative Strategy: Dreamer, Realist, and Critic approach.
I have both an electronic and audion version of the book. It is a good listen. Amazon: Learning to Think Strategically 4th Edition https://amzn.to/2Z1vyKB
Onboarding Freelancers LinkedIn Group Deck Business901
Would you contribute to empowering Freelancers in your work environment?
Please consider joining this LinkedIn Group:
https://lnkd.in/eRuGzsm
As the use of Freelancers proliferate across organizational departments new ways of thinking are required. We have created instances of success in employee onboarding but often we have similar expectations of Freelancers in very condensed cycles.
This group is intended first and foremost to create awareness of these issues and elaborate on ideas for enhancing the flow of work between the stakeholders.
Lean Scale Up: Lean as a Growth StrategyBusiness901
The Lean Scale-Up ebook has been a handout and lead generator on my website for several years. It was created with the understanding that if you can build a culture of PDCA, a culture of learning, growth becomes part of everyone’s job.
It is this aspect I have always believe that separates good companies from great companies.

In creating an International Strategy, "Where to play" is a critical component, maybe the most. And the scariest part is that it can change rather quickly. What is your risk? Are you prepared?
This is an excerpt from a recent Prime Target and Euromonitor International webinar about risk hosted by Tatiana Miron: https://lnkd.in/eXr_8dU
PrimeTarget.tech helps SMEs and startups accelerate growth and improve performance globally through the power of data and analytics. The management team is versatile and abreast in growth hacking for companies with global ambitions. Their purpose is to open access to small and medium enterprises to a fundamentally new approach in decision making with regards to global strategies, one designed to match today's fast pace of change and new technologies.
Get On Track with a Strength-Based Sales and Marketing ApproachBusiness901
If the video does not play in the 2nd slide, this is the YouTube Link: https://youtu.be/fmWWut0rjBY
The video incorporates the disciplines I use within a Strength-Based Sales and Marketing effort. Taken from great leaders of Appreciative Inquiry, it may look complicated but all of these are founded on the basic principles of AI.
Appreciative Inquiry is a shift from looking at problems and deficiencies and instead focusing on strengths and successes. It is a tool for change, and it will strengthen relationships throughout your business. Most people struggle to obtain this mindset without training. We have just been conditioned otherwise. I always use the example that is about obtaining the flow of what and how versus the drilling down of why. In sales and marketing when you analyze your wins instead of your losses it makes you 10X more likely to understand the events that trigger decision-makers to become motivated about buying your product or service.

Understand the Purpose Behind the QuestionBusiness901
The ability to ask good questions is essential in today’s world. However, as Stephen Covey categorized in one of his 7 Habits; “Seek first to Understand, then to be understood.” Or another way Dale Carnegie phrased this, “To be interesting, be interested.” To accomplish this, I think one of the areas that most of could work on is to develop our ability to quickly recognize the purpose of the question. When we do this, it is much easier to align perspectives and therefore engage in collaborative efforts.
Adapted from the work of Stafford (2009) and from the book, Collaborating for Inquiry-Based Learning: School Librarians and Teachers Partner for Student Achievement by Virginia L. Wallace and Whitney N. Husid, the Purposes for Question diagram is an ideal training aid for me in sales and marketing.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Joe: Welcome, everyone. This is Joe Dager, the host of the
Business901 podcast. With me, today is Mick Campbell. He is the
co-founder and a managing partner of OPPM International, which
stands for One-Page Project Manager, and, co-author of the most
recent One-Page Project Manager book that includes updates, the
original version, and a section on using the One-Page Project
Manager in an agile type environment. I would like to welcome
you, Mick, and would you start out by updating me on the four
books and what is going on with them?
Mick: I would love to. I appreciate, Joe, the invitation to be with
you today and with the audience and I look forward to our
conversation. The One-Page Project Manager series of books have
been well accepted in many different areas and were first
published by Wylie some years ago with the green book. The
original One-Page Project Manager. That was followed with the
yellow book, the One-Page Project Manager for IT Projects, two
years later. Two years after that, a red book was published the
One-Page Project Manager for Execution.
The compilation of those three books and our best thinking was
then summarized into the new One-Page Project Manager which
replaces the first two books and adds elements of OPPM both
from a traditional project standpoint, as well as an agile project
standpoint. So, we have been well received and are pleasantly
surprised at the acceptance and adoption of the new book out in
the world at large. So, thanks for having me.
Joe: I think I was the first reviewer on the original One-Page
Project Manager over six years ago on Amazon.
Mick: I think that's accurate. I think that is accurate. We went
4. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
back and looked at that, and that is a fun connection to have.
Joe: I was struggling trying to create a one page document to
give to clients. I had tried this out and built one up in Excel on
my own, then I ran across this book and I said, "This is better
than mine."
Mick: Thank you.
Joe: When you first think about an Excel document in project
management, you think of a simplified version of Microsoft
Project. However, I think the One-Page Project Manager wasn't
exactly a project manager document to begin with. It was based
on an X matrix and was a reporting tool, wasn't it?
Mick: It absolutely was. If we go back in time to 1985 if you can
remember that far back. I know you and I can, probably some of
our listeners may not, but at that time we had a transition in the
organization from a manager who was a micro-manager in his
nature, to a manager or President/CEO of the company, to be
specific, who was not. In the context of a project he said, "Here's
ten million dollars to execute this particular project. Keep me
posted." So, as a team we had to devise a way to communicate
to a person who was not interested in the details.
As you stated, clearly we are interested and needed to follow and
manage and track and use multiple tools to do that. Invariably,
some of the reporting elements that would come
out of those tools that we'd hand to management were not clearly
understood, not intuitive and in general, missed the mark in
communication.
So, this genesis of, back then as you called it, we actually called
it the Matrix report, not the little blue pill one, that we've seen
the film on, but the Matrix report and then changed it the One-
5. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
Page Project Manager several years later. It became a standard
for reporting project status to stake holders who don't need all
the details.
Joe: I think it's better than a reporting thing. I have always used
it as a communication tool. I think, it raises questions, allows
things to move around, assigns a lot of responsibilities and you
can even do some "what ifs" with it if you would like. How has it
developed in your mind? It's much more than a reporting tool
isn't it?
Mick: It really is. In our new book, as we thought on how to get
the idea of communication to the market in general, we used the
analogy of a watch face. For anyone who flies knows that still
dials are well used, despite all the electronics that we can still put
into our planes. It is because they communicate so crisply.
So, we used that analogy to say that communication if I take one
step back, communication is the great statistical difference maker
in, certainly, in project success and we would probably take,
even, a step back and say in business and life and other
elements. Our ability to communicate well provides for us an
opportunity for success.
Recognizing that you have hit the nail on the head identifying
that the One-Page Project Manager, albeit, the genesis of a
report, facilitates for communication, pushing really, a lot of,
what we might call from a Lean perspective, non-value added
work out of our communication and making it intuitive.
You look at your watch, you don't do calculations, you just have a
general sense if you've got a meeting at 11:30 and you're looking
at your watch, and it's 11:00 you know in your gut how long a
half an hour is how many different things you might be able to
accomplish before that.

We wanted to have the OPPM, the One-Page Project Manager, be
just that. A communication tool that, when provided to any
individual, they might look at it and have a sense intuitively as to
what's going on, what's the status, how are we doing, what areas
might we need some more help on, or, at a high level, you were
spot on.
It's a tool that facilitates communication. We've had a woman
send us her daughter's wedding on an OPPM and maybe a little
bit later I can tell the listeners how the effort
to put Governor Romney in the White House from a transition
team was done on OPPMs as well.
Joe: Well, I've noticed through the years the flexibility that the
document has because it's based on Excel. I think that have I
ever used it, and I did reconfigure it slightly and is that
typical? Have most people made it their own through use?
Mick: They have. They've used it as a core template and then
adopted it to the norms of their organizational needs.
Joe: And, do you think that is the strength of it?
Mick: I do. I look at it, and I had an interesting call one day
from a program manager for a small, little organization up in
Redmond, Washington, some of us might be familiar with. He's in
charge of Microsoft project. A brilliant person, and in our
conversation it stemmed into this idea that this simple One-Page
Project Manager was something that, intuitively, they wouldn't, or
didn't currently provide. It is being adopted.
When the books had some success, Wylie, our publisher, came
back and asked us, "Why is it working?" I will be completely
honest with you, this is a little bit of behind the curtains truth, we
7. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
didn't know all the answers initially, as to the "why?" We had
created it, it had been moving forward, it found adoption but, we
then began to understand that there is power in pictures when
you communicate.
Pictures are so much more communicative than are words and/or
numbers, even. Then we found that there's a necessity for
simplicity coupled with pictures. And, as those two elements
came together in a format that, when I am across the world
talking about project work, when I ask people, "What's your
number one project tool?" As you would probably guess, they
say, "Excel." Just as you've said.
So, the fact of the matter that's in the tool that they're already
used to using, and it provides them an opportunity not to rip and
replace some of these other more robust tools that they may
need to facilitate the project work, it just lays on top and can be
used in coordination or conjunction with.
Joe: I think it is so adaptable because it went through a lot of
changes within Excel and maintained its integrity, hasn't it?
Mick: It has. The core matrix, or that built off that X chart has
stayed, but there have been little iterative changes over the
years, and our best thinking shows those in the new book. Most
interestingly are the changes that were necessary to take it from
a traditional standpoint and make it as powerful and useful from
an agile standpoint.
Joe: Well, and the new book has come out to include Agile. I
thought it was a great step. It never was a waterfall or a Gantt
chart project manager, it always was more of a communication
tool, and it was very agile in nature.
Mick: You bet. It really was. As you come to understand it or, as
8. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
you have done, read the books you know that much of the
conclusions that go onto the document itself come from the team.
The collaboration that takes place among peers and different
people who have ownership in accomplishing the work, everybody
has got to be in alignment and in agreement before that gets
communicated, and certainly from an agile communication
standpoint, you're right. That is native to the actual experience of
working through the use of an OPPM.
Joe: I have a couple of real basic questions for you. One of them
is, when I pick up the book, does the book teach me about
project management? Or, does it just teach me about the project
manager?
Mick: The book itself is an attempt to provide some
simplification to the work of projects so that you can have a
context to think about it and then apply that to the use and
creation of the One-Page Project Manager.
We view projects as having five essential parts. For people who
have gone out and studied project management institutes, PMP
methodology you're well attuned and understanding the five
process groups, well it used to be nine knowledge areas, now
with the new release this year ten knowledge areas as they
added stakeholders to that relationship. Then we would identify
inside of those all the different nuances that are required from a
PMI's perspective to execute the project. I think that's wonderful
thinking.
We tend to simplify it down to say that projects, in general, have
five basic parts and we speak to those, and it's the understanding
that it takes twelve steps to create an OPPM that you walk
through with the team. Once those are done you have a
communication tool that communicates the plan. So, the first
9. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
step is it communicates the plan.
Next we teach just five reporting steps to the, already now
created OPPM. Those five reporting steps simply stated
communicate progress to the already communicated plan. So, as
I move through that, that's my expectation. The book, itself,
again, teaches five basic core fundamental ideas in project work,
twelve steps to create an OPPM, five steps to be used to report
an OPPM to improve communication.
Joe: Has anyone ever claimed that there is too much information
on a page?
Mick: That's an interesting conversation. I recall a wonderful, in
depth conversation with a friend of mine at Texas Instruments
whom I've come to know. He talked about using the OPPM as a
front door step, as a boiler plate. As something that would draw
in attention and then he wanted to have cells that you could click
and find a litany of data in and behind that. That is as you would
expect, because he is a detail oriented person.
One of the best thinkers and probably most successful project
management writers, a gentleman by the name of Harold Kerzner
has talked about an idea that we like and use, and he mentions it
in some praise for some of our books. That executives, those who
are making decisions have so much information to look at, and
we, ourselves, we've got hundreds of web sites, we have multiple
news publications, who know how many cable stations or satellite
stations we have at our disposal, how many e-mail accounts you
manage personally. We are inundated with information and so,
how do we parse through that?
The idea being that when he goes out and does some things he
causes that people write up a report, and invariably it is multiple
pages and people have beautiful documentation that accompanies
10. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
it, at the end of that he throws all this away to make a singular
statement that I'll share with everyone. I love this statement. I
think it's applicable to your comment about too much information
on one page.
He says that if there is a paper clip around it or a staple through
it they won't read it. So, we took that and applied it directly to
our thinking, saying that you can't choose or scrunch down your
fonts size, you've got to keep it legible, and that, actually, for
most of us who are detail oriented, which many people in the
project world are, that becomes quite a bit
of a struggle. In fact, when we're out talking about the One-Page
Project Manager that is sometimes the hardest thing for people to
do is to try to determine how much information they're going to
put and what information is salient.
Joe: I look at it a lot as an A3 and as a cover document, a
summary document over the top and, of course, it may not be
able to express every detail in its entirety, but if you have a
hyperlink or you have a place to go to find the rest, the people
who need that can go get it.
Mick: You bet. I think your point about adoption, people have
been able to use it as a core idea and build on it for their own
organizational needs.
Joe: What are the limitations of it, then?
Mick: Because it is one page it can't communicate everything.
You have to choose the elements, or think of it as high level
tasks, or high level deliverables that you're going to track or
watch or the elements of risk or opportunity that you, maybe,
want to communicate to the project team.
That, to some degree for some people, in and of its nature does
11. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
not provide them as much information as they would want,
because of that we've learned and found ways to cascade them in
what we call Level One, Two and Three. One being a high level,
two being
taking a singular line item and extrapolating that into a secondary
document and subsequent tertiary document if the need is
present.
Joe: So, this is like the front cover of my file cabinet and it can
maintain everything that 90% of us need but 10% is going to
have to open the door.
Mick: Very well said. In fact, as I mentioned, it doesn't
necessarily replace, at all, many of the tools whether they're off
the shelf or home grown tools that organizations are using to
facilitate the management of their projects. It just becomes a,
back to the point, communication vehicle to more clearly
understand where people are.
Joe: You have an online version of this. Can you tell me a bit
about that?
Mick: When we decided to create our business, in and around
the One-Page Project Manager, we chose what I think is probably
the best year to do that, 2008. We launched out on our own, and
it was a wonderful growing and learning experience, and we have
provided an expanded core set of templates that are
downloadable on our website. Those, as you have already
mentioned, are Excel based and with several examples in PDF
and
other ways.
What we have found is organizations sometimes forget the how
do I build this, and/or someone gets the template somewhere
cascaded from someone and they go through the effort of trying
12. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
to create or use it and, invariably, have sections that are left
unfilled
in and/or not tied to the other pieces. The document itself, from a
design standpoint, everything connects, back and forth with one
another.
So, to be able to do that our online tutorial is much like, maybe
appropriate since it is tax season, a Turbo Tax. It takes you
through a wizard to ask you those twelve different questions as to
how you might create it, and as you fill those out, it automatically
populates those into, either, a Web-based template that you can
manage and/or once you use that to create your OPPM what
we've found is that people use that to create it and
then just download it into Excel, tweak it a little bit for their
organization and fire it off and use it throughout the course of
their projects.
Joe: Okay, so I can go in there and customize it and still have all
these things in Excel after using it. It is just not all up in the
cloud.
Mick: That's right. You have the option of leaving it in the cloud
and getting e-mail reminders. As you stated, a lot of people use,
we call it My OPPM, use My OPPM as just a creation engine to
facilitate the first document. Remember once you're done with
those that communicate the plan and then they download in Excel
and then use that ongoing to communicate performance to the
plan.
Joe: OPPM, the corporation is more than just the One-Page
Project Manager. What else do you do?
Mick: We have started out with the books and as we have
learned, unless you're J.K. Rowling or Michael Crichton most
people don't write books to make money. Books are a wonderful
13. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
opportunity to validate some ideas and to share those with the
community at
large. In this case mostly the business community for us.
The books have been a wonderful effort, and we continue to be
grateful to have our connection as I mentioned, with Wylie our
publisher to facilitate our books out there. That's the first element
of the business.
The second element is the Web deliverables. We talked about the
forms, the templates that are available for download and we've
had just a wonderful interaction internationally with those going
all around the world being used in projects, small and large, back
and forth. That community has grown. That, also, has expanded,
as you mentioned, to the My OPPM offering, which is that wizard
based creation tool for OPPMs online as well.
So, we have the books and the online offerings. I spend a
significant portion of my time out in the world of training and
coaching. Where I am out, some of my other team members are
out talking to project people and executives about simplification
and
communication improvement in the realm of projects, of course. I
think I was in about 26 cities this last year having a conversation
with hundreds and hundreds of professionals about that.
Then, as you would guess, the old horse and cart scenario is we
spend some time in-house with organizations who get exposure
to any of those three previously mentioned areas of business
focus and then we come in and do a little bit of, whether it is
customized training or particular consulting with different
organizations.
It's been a ton of fun to continue to grow the business, and like
many of you who are entrepreneurial in your nature, you
14. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
probably feel the same pull that I do in my company is that you
have multiple irons in the fire all of which are yielding something,
and you
have to choose where you can focus your effort because we don't
have teams of dozens and dozens of people sitting around looking
to us to assign them something to do. So, it's been a wonderful
growth of the business in those four basic areas.
Joe: I noticed that you have a video for entrepreneurs on your
website. Should an entrepreneur use the project plan? Should he
use the One-Page Project Manager?
Mick: We've found that little bit of thinking structure helps in a
tremendous way. It helps us in our efforts, so, just from
essentially stepping in our own glue buckets over time we've
tried to share and help other people not have to step in the same
ones. So, it becomes a wonderful tool for focusing your efforts
and energies in an area that will yield the most for
your effort.
Joe: So, what's upcoming for OPPM?
Mick: That's a fun topic for us right now. We are just finishing up
a . . . it's a historical document. We have an opportunity to have
the One-Page Project Manager be used by Mike Leavitt. He was
the three term governor of my home state of Utah, and during
Bush he was asked to be Health and Human Services Secretary.
You can imagine, if any of us was asked to head up that type of
department and all the litany of activity and projects that were
going on from Medicare and Medicaid to the international
pandemic planning and the Center for Disease Control and
Prevention, he wanted a simple way to understand how this work.
15. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
So, he found OPPM, asked us to help them and for many years,
the OPPMs were used to communicate, for example, International
Pandemic Planning. Then, when the Obama administration took
over, and Kathleen Sebelius was asked to be secretary in the first
term, Governor Leavitt was able to hand all those documents to
her. Well, he was asked
to head up the effort for Governor Romney's attempt at the
presidency. As we are not partisan, we have a little joke to say,
"We don't work for red states or blue states, particularly, we work
for both because, oddly enough they both pay with green
money."
We've worked for the National Science Foundation helping some
of the global warming team communicates more successfully
back to Washington, and as I'm telling this little story now, we,
obviously had some efforts with the Romney transition team. But,
our job was not to talk about politics; our job was to talk with the
transition team on how to communicate project work
successfully.
We had over a hundred OPPMs that would roll up to one singular
OPPM which Governor Romney would review every Monday
afternoon to assess the status of the transition team that was
being put together and executing the work to stand up the United
States of
America government on OPPMs.
So, we couldn't be more ecstatic and thrilled, and that book is in
the finalization, actually, this week as we're talking a publication
and will then be out there and prominently features many of the
OPPMs that were used and the efforts to share that. So, that was
obviously a huge project of immense proportions, our entire
government if you're listening to this from the United States of
America.
16. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
Yet, as I mentioned earlier, we had feedback from a woman who
did her own project work managing her daughter's wedding on an
OPPM, so the future is wonderful and we're happy to be able to
share that. Additionally, with just our new book that also, that
template and that example out there to the world, as well.
Joe: That sounds pretty exciting.
Mick: It's more than exciting for us. It was a ton of fun. It's the
first time in a long time that we'd been fired from something, Joe.
Fired by the American people this time, unknowingly, but still you
feel the effort.
Joe: You originally had a book on Lean IT using the OPPM. Then,
in your execution book it was Lean orientated with how to use
OPPM with A3s. Another part of Lean software especially in the
agile has been Kanban. Is that something that the OPPM can be
used with?
Mick: We initially, as you stated, thought OPPM was agile in its
nature, which it is. From the perspective, the idea is you're
pulling work instead of pushing work, and the
opportunity, whether it's working with sticky notes and/or areas
of communications where you've got teams that are co-located
and you're expecting that this osmotic communication takes
place, and you're information rated or set around the work areas
to tell people what's going on.
Invariably, though, we found as we got into that world that there
were not many good way to communicate to management what's
going on. So, management would have their agile teams and
they're out there doing the work and they'd want to know what's
going on and the teams, themselves would say well come into our
work areas, and you'll intuitively know by looking around.
17. Business901 Podcast Transcription
Implementing Lean Marketing Systems
One Page Project Manager Podcast
Copyright Business901
For many of them, one, they wouldn't come, and two, they
maybe weren't well versed enough to understand exactly what
was happening. So, we, then had to re-craft what in its creation,
in its teaming as an agile experience, but its reporting is
different. So, we took the original and kind of had to scrap it, go
through our own experience from a Scrum Master and a Kanban
and a Lean thinking perspective and change the OPPM to mirror
how agile projects are being run. We've received wonderful
feedback from multiple organizations on their use of it to be able
to help communicate more effectively.
Joe: I think your document covers that well and most agile
people, most software people should take a look at it and see if it
fits them. Because, I think it's very unique in the way you did it.
Mick: Thanks. We spent some time. That went through a lot of
iterations, I'll be honest. We had wonderful collaborations with
some of the top thinkers whether it was Jim Highsmith or Alistair
Colburn or others and, so that was helpful to make sure it was
aligned to what people wanted to see.
Joe: Is there anything you would like to add to this conversation?
Mick: The only thing I'd love to add is as you think about what
all of us are trying to accomplish, I think we started out in the
right area, and we should close in that, it's about communicating
more appropriately. I will be honest with you; this might be a tool
that could be as I've heard from many people, the best tool
they've ever found to use to communicate.
I've also had people on the total other side of that, who have
said, "You know, this doesn't help me in the least." So, we are
comfortable with either, and would say to you that if it helps,
fantastic. Use it, leverage it and find success in it.

If it doesn't fit, that's okay, too. We don't believe ourselves to be
the answer to all things, but if there is a little opportunity to
improve and enhance what you're already doing we'd love to see
some more success on your part from our thinking.
Joe: Well, Mick, I would like to thank you much for your time and
your generosity in giving us this information about the One-Page
Project Manager. This podcast will be available in the Business901
on iTunes store and the Business901 blog site. So, thanks again.
