PM ADVISORY:

Who’s Shaking Your Snow Globe?

By Michelle LaBrosse, PMP®
Founder & Chief Cheetah, Cheetah Learning

When I think about what’s happening in the world right now, it reminds me of those snow globes that I had as a kid. The world is calm and serene in the little village until someone shakes the snow globe, and then in an instant the world changes.

There are two ways to handle change. One way is to keep doing what you were doing and ignore the change that is happening. The other way is to forget about the old way of doing things, embrace the snow and set up some new rules for your wintry world.

On the following pages, let’s take a look at some of the old rules that have defined many of us over the last decade, and new rules that can bring us forward. Then, we’ll look at our role as Project Managers in creating value in any environment -- serene or shaken.
