Welcome to Buttoned Up Projects!

Successful project management requires careful planning, organization, and leading your team effectively. When executed correctly, proper project management will lead you to:
  1. Meet goals set out for a project
  2. Keep a project on schedule and completed on deadline
  3. Ensure a project stays in line with its budget
  4. Show excellent results
As a Project Manager, I'm constantly seeking out new methodologies and best practices to improve my project management skills. I'm also on the hunt for tools to streamline all aspects of a project's life cycle, including software, web applications, and smartphone applications.

I like my projects to be "buttoned up" with no loose threads and no missing pieces. This can be tough to accomplish when a project has a lot of moving parts and multiple people involved. But it can be done successfully when managed correctly.

This blog is where I'll talk about new things I've learned, methods I've tried, and what I've found to work best.
