Drupalcon Munich is just around the corner. I'm busy revamping my presentation on Project Management, thinking hard about what I've learned since the last couple of times I've presented on this subject. The truth is, I'm constantly learning new tips and tricks from the people I work with. These days, I'm busy learning the styles of an almost whole new crew of folks. One guy, Morbus is a well known quantity.

My role at Trellon is somewhat different than what I was doing at Examiner. Examiner was leveraging my overall experiences and allowing me to take part in some strategic decisions - but wasn't fully making use of my experience since 1995 when I got into the crazy business of information technology. Strangely enough, my work in Technical Theatre was some of the best preparation for the Internet world. I'll write more on that another time.

In Munich, come to my session and learn why:

• Waterfall doesn't always work
• Agile has a place, but isn't the holy grail
• Cowboy can kill the relationships you have with your stakeholders
• How "Fixed Scope" is a lie
• That a combination of approaches is the answer
• Over the last 17 years, I have carefully honed, updated, improved, and iterated project management techniques. It continues to evolve, improve, and make development more consistent and predictable.
