Field Notes

Over time, I’ve become increasingly clear that my strength is not just delivering projects on time, but turning complex, dependency-heavy work into a delivery rhythm that can actually move forward. My current role is still Agile Project Manager, but the work I have really been doing for years is building and stabilizing delivery systems: aligning […]

I came across both Kano and MoSCoW quite early on. They are often discussed together because both are used in conversations about requirements, value, and prioritization. But the more I’ve used them, the more convinced I’ve become of one thing: they are not models operating on the same dimension. They may both seem to answer […]

Looking back, one of the projects that shaped my delivery style most was a Phase 2 justice-sector IT and infrastructure upgrade (project name de-identified).

The overall goal was to build a city-level capability to control, monitor, and manage multiple traffic-related points, including: It was one of the […]

VUCA is one of the most common challenges in modern projects—and it’s often hidden. Clients usually don’t sense it proactively, which is why many of mine still insist on a waterfall approach at the policy level. I don’t blame them. They’ve been working that way for years. But as their financial situation has worsened, they’ve […]

When I look back on my relationship with Agile, I realize my true awakening didn’t come from a book, a course, or a certification. It came from real work in 2015—when a friend and I co-founded a small studio focused on visual identity (VI) and website design and development. At the time, we were only […]

Here is my first step towards the world stage. In recent years, I have set a goal to broaden my perspective on project management to a global level. I want to step out of my comfort zone, moving beyond outdated and conventional project management methods, and instead embrace more advanced knowledge and concepts from around […]
