I spent a good part of last summer writing topics for the latest edition of Association for Project Management's Body of Knowledge, 8th Edition. And now I have a copy in my hands. Wonderful!

Of course, that means I cannot review it objectively - I wrote around half the topics! But it is excellent - a fantastic sourcebook of knowledge and ideas for project professionals. And our brief as writers was to focus on accuracy and clarity of information. It is easier to read, yet more packed with information that previous editions. And a big +1 for each of the type-setting and graphics.

I am looking forward tremendously to interviewing APM CEO, Prof. Adam Boddison OBE, to learn what the 8th Edition and Body of Knowlegde programme in general can tell us about how APM sees the future of project management.

I am proud to announce that I have got together with my new chum, Marvin.

Marvin is an AI bot, optimized to help answer project delivery and related questions. It is a collaboration between Praxis Framework and Projecting Success.

I was introduced to Marvin by Martin Paver and am now collaborating with Praxis founder, Adrian Dooley, to include as much of my material into Marvin's memory, as we can. This means it will come under the same Creative Commons usage terms as all the wonderful Praxis Framework.

This is tremendous for me. Praxis and Marvin are massive (and under-used) assets for the projects profession and our wider community.

If you have a question about any aspect of project management, why not ask Marvin, at llmjonah.azurewebsites.net/ His answer may access some of my thinking, along with that of many other contributors to our community.

This weeks video is proving popular. When you first encountered the words incremental, iterative, and adaptive, did they all seem to blend into one? I decided to create a short video to explain, as clearly as I can, what they each mean, so we can all understand the differences.

We've reached the top 5 of my top 10 videos of 2024. 
At number 5, I asked how much risk will your project take on? 
There are three similar measures we use. I explored the comparisons between: 
- Risk Tolerance
- Risk Appetite,
- Risk Capacity.
