In today’s podcast, Payson Hall, consulting project manager and founding member of Catalysis Group, Inc., proposes an expansion to the existing PMBOK knowledge areas by adding a new knowledge area called Project Blame Management (BM).This knowledge area covers the identification, allocation, and management of blame for project failures.Payson believes that by formalizing an approach to Blame Management, project managers can demonstrate the value of more rigorous process to other knowledge areas and protect their rears at the same time.
Payson presented his proposal to a packed house during the Sacramento Valley Chapter’s January dinner meeting (January 10, 2008) and his presentation was recorded in front of a live audience. If you’d like more information on this important and needed PMBOK knowledge area, please contact Payson via his website at www.catalysisgroup.com.

According to Doug DeCarlo, author of eXtreme Project Management: Using Leadership, Principles and Tools to Deliver Value in the Face of Volitility,
“When working under adversity and extreme conditions, the biggest project we face is ourselves. Unless we learn Self-Mastery, we are destined to a life of self-misery.” As PM’s, we spend countless hours honing our skills to support and serve others on our projects but how much time do we spend on honing our own life skills?
In this episode of the PMI-SVCast, Doug DeCarlo and Dina Henry Scott, PMP, have a chat all about self-mastery and the importance of having a strong inner direction in order to be the best Project Manager you can be.
