Agile Testing
While most of us agree that how hard it is to cope with the nagging of the documentation stuff required while the ordinary system team (i.e. the developers along with their PM) is working off to resolve the baselines of the code. In the testing world, certain things don't work right. What written up there in that document might not have the effect while its up there on the screen or is running behind the code.

The Management Update
What's your take on management? Do you think that management is all about "Managing the people". Doesn't management rings a bell or two about where the heck is the work-pressure coming from. The deadlines and milestones. The deliverables and the likes. My own personal experience makes me think that management is not just about managing people in a given organization but also managing its culture.

Understanding the User
This is a very touchy subject. No one wants to be in a position where they are not able to fully support a user. An IT Manager's worst nightmare is the inability to meet the expectations of the users. In a functional organization where the earnings are through the functional means, more or less the It department is on the mercy of the main department. And in order to keep the IT shop running - IT people have no choice but to meet their expectations and fully understand them.

Project Management & Leadership
For a successful project manager, there lies a dire need of project specific leadership. And it holds true in all sort of projects, be it small, mid-sized or large. In my recent experience, I tried different hats, being a worker, a leader, a management person, and focused mainly on working with the team, listening to the team, and thinking through them. It helped me getting a good rapport with my team; but in scenarios where the upper management doesn’t feel that this is the way the PM should work then it’s not worth the effort. Hence, in order to make a stand in front of ones those who have more power than the PM and are also seated in the higher chairs it would be worthwhile first to win the consensus across the board.

Offshore Project Management : The Business to Technical Communication (Part II)
As a project manager there are many things going through PM's mind. Many tasks - knowledge bank - technical and as well as business wise. If one understands correctly not all the information which he/she has in his/her knowledge bank is supposedly meant for every stakeholder. Otherwise there will be a zillion questions from business - "Why are we doing it this way?" or "Why weren't our department included as part of this discussion?" or "This does not meet our requirements" or "That's not the way we do business here?" or "Who'll do all this documentation?" and many more. The bottom-line is some information hiding is necessary and is fruitful in the long run.

Imagine your work; a software module, assigned to you with a timeline of 1.5 weeks. And you tell your boss - that you are telecommuting. As you need to concentrate and all for this piece of work. Instead of working yourself, you delegate it to a software developer in India or Philippines or China. And check on and off with the progress and complete your task with in a week including testing. Sure, you are on your way to somewhere. Your boss is happy and you are happy and the software developer getting pennies for his work is happy as well.
