He also shares principles from his third book, So, You Want to be a Project Manager? The 3 P's presentation reviews the traditional metrics of project management which require an organization to bring projects to completion ON scope, ON budget, and ON schedule. As the discussion progresses, Jon helps owners, managers, and construction professionals better prepare for consistent outcomes with the dynamics of project management. In addition to those core competencies, modern professionals have to always be learning to improve their skills with People, Process, and Projects (The 3 P's).  The two resources that attendees most ask for after the attend the 3 P's of Project Management presentations are The DYOJO Production Sequencing and Project Tracking spreadsheets (see images above). If the reader is interested in these resources they should check out Jon's books, So, You Want to be a Project Manager (production sequencing) and How to Suck Less at Estimating (project tracking). How to Suck Less at Estimating is also a six module course available through Restoration Technical Institute. Contact The DYOJO today to discuss these resources.
