- Willcox 4 Project Management
- I'm a practising Project Management consultant who is keen to share some of my views on how to improve project success from 30 years of running projects. As you may detect from the posts I like a bit of humour but there is a serious point to them too and I believe that use of cartoons and proverbs aid memory retention. If you get benefit from the blog posts you may be interested in my book written in the same style. Enjoy!
