If you or a colleague are leaving a role and thinking about how to manage transferring your client work to someone else, this is for you. It’s really important to do a smooth handover process, and there’s an email template in this article you can use to tell clients that you are moving on.

I know, that’s not rocket science. It’s how you prioritise and use your time that matters, and that means focusing on the...
Hello Reader, People often ask me how project managers can be evaluated, or what targets should be set for people in project roles.
