Project Delivery Success with Olajumoke Akinwunmi and Dharam Singh | Episode 2

Project Delivery Success with Olajumoke Akinwunmi and Dharam Singh | Episode 2

๐ŸŽฏ Project success doesnโ€™t come from flashy toolsโ€”it comes from purpose, clarity, and people.

In Episode 2 of the Innovative Project Management Practices series, I had the privilege of speaking with Olajumoke Akinwunmi, EDGE Expert & PMPยฎ, about the real strategies that drive project excellence.

๐Ÿ’ฌ We explored what truly transforms project deliveryโ€”not just emerging tech or trends, but:
๐Ÿ”น Early stakeholder engagement
๐Ÿ”น Clear communication and agile-inspired transparency
๐Ÿ”น Meaningful team morale boosters
๐Ÿ”น Smart but thoughtful tech adoption (yes, drones included!)
๐Ÿ”น Negotiation strategies that build trust, not walls

This episode is a masterclass in grounded leadership, and Olajumoke’s insights are a must-listen for anyone managing complex projects or diverse teams.

Why KPIs Fail: Common Pitfalls & How to Fix Them | vCare Project Management

Why KPIs Fail: Common Pitfalls & How to Fix Them | vCare Project Management

โ“ What does it mean when key performance indicators (KPIs) donโ€™t provide the expected information? Share your thoughts in the comments! ๐Ÿ‘‡
KPIs are designed to measure success – but what if they mislead rather than inform?
In Episode 5 of Managing High-Stress Projects Q&A, I had a thought-provoking discussion with Tom Witterholt on why KPIs often fail and how leaders can avoid common measurement mistakes.

๐Ÿ’ก Key Takeaways from Our Discussion:
โœ” KPIs are rarely perfect on the first attempt – continuous refinement is critical
โœ” Unexpected results? They might highlight real performance issues or flawed metrics
โœ” Qualitative vs. Quantitative Data – choosing the right measurement approach is key
โœ” Hidden factors matter – some root causes go beyond surface-level indicators
โœ” Bad KPIs exist – some metrics may be impractical, misleading, or unmeasurable

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ Featuring: Tom Witterholt – A global leader in defense, aerospace & high-stakes industries, with 34+ years of expertise in program & portfolio management.
