The new pmZoneTM is a microsite within the CM Crossroads online developer community that provides a consolidation of resources and information about project and portfolio management. The new pmZone is available online at - http://www.pmcrossroads.com Project Managers face a myriad of challenges on the journey to achieve resource, service and financial optimization. The Project Manager Zone (pmZone) helps to empower its members through a community resource that offers a wealth of expertise, promotes learning, collaboration and the exchange of best practices to help project teams formulate forward thinking strategies and promote project success in their organization. One key section of the pmZone is "Average Joe's Tips and tricks" a blog by Joe Komperda, IBM Executive Project Manager and PMP, in which he shares a series of tips and tricks for effective and results oriented project management. Another is "PPM Methodology" a compilation of articles and resources by Mike Hanford that span the many aspects of project portfolio management. Mike is the IBM Rational Domain Lead for PPM Methods, and, the Chief Methodologist for IBM Rational SUMMIT Ascendant Methodologies. According to Patrick Egan, Editor in Chief of the Configuration Management Journal, "The idea of the pmZone is to serve a potential audience of IT professionals who play multiple roles in their organization as both project manager and configuration manager, quality manager or release manager. Before the pmZone, this audience had to search multiple sites in order to find answers to their questions about how to manage their project in conjunction with their other tasks. CM Crossroads provides the perfect home for the pmZone as its member community is composed of a broad scope of individuals from many industries whose common link is a concern for the production of quality software." "We have found that this type of site doesn't exist and we have access to a large array of material that could really benefit this audience." Said Karen Kay Miller, PMP®, IBM's GTM Manager for Process, Project and Portfolio Management. "We worked with CM Crossroads to create the site so that this audience would have all of the resources they need to successfully accomplish their jobs right at their fingertips." In the Project Manager Zone, community members will gain access to blogs by industry thought leaders in project and portfolio management, educational material, best practice articles, white papers, webcasts and a wide variety of other resources specific to the needs of a project manager.
