Practical depth for experienced project managers
You already know the basics of project management. What you need now is better judgment in complex situations.
The Project Professional's Toolkit helps experienced PMs apply familiar tools and frameworks more effectively — in real projects, with real constraints.
Free access for registered users.
Who this is for
This toolkit is for project managers who:
- Have already managed several projects
- Know PM frameworks and terminology
- Face uncertainty, pressure, and competing expectations
- Want better outcomes — not more documentation
How to use it differently from Starter Toolkit
Resources are the same for both toolkits — but you can use them differently. Read on to see how to benefit from the resources as an experienced project manager or professional.
✔ Project Manager’s Guide
Focus on how and why to do different PM activities in the Guide. Use questions as starting points for discussions with different project stakeholders.
Here the emphasis is on:
- interpretation instead of instruction
- judgment instead of compliance
✔ Project checklists and templates
as part of the Project Manager's Guide including:
- Project Charter
- Project Plan
- Status Report
- Final Report
Evaluate and use templates critically focusing on things that add most value when managing your projects. Use checklists as starting points for discussions with different project stakeholders.
✔ Project Success Vector Guide
A practical tool for governing and delivering successful projects.
🚀 The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Project Management
You can skip sections that are not critical in your projects, and read instead with insight the sections that are possible pain points in your projects. Use Guide's twisted tone to make your stakeholders see things from new viewpoints.
✔ PM knowledge base
Again focus on articles describing how and why to do different PM activities. Ask other project stakeholders to point information or knowledge that should be distributed within project organisation or network.
⚙️ Tools and guidance
When comparing project management tools focus on sections which fit in your PM model or methodology. Look at the features that add most value in your projects.
