Last week we welcomed 5 bloggers on the program to take a look back at what's been going on in PM over the past few months. So let's turn around and look into the future.
I wanted to know from our group what they think is the cutting edge of PM today, what trends they see, what trends they would like to write about, what they feel is missing from the PMBOK® Guide and if they see anything in the horizon that will come after Kanban, Scrum and Agile.
The bloggers that you will hear from today are:

Have you ever wanted to take "The Pulse" of project management? You know, have a simple way at your disposal with which you could see and learn what's going on with project management these days? To learn what people are talking about, maybe learn about new tools & techniques and just generally understand where our field is heading?
Well... I have... many times. And my answer to this is a new feature here on The PM Podcast called "The Pulse" that you will be hearing here every few months. In the pulse you will hear the voices of a number of Project Management bloggers out there and learn what they are writing about, what they hear from their readers and what they read on other blogs. These bloggers are at the forefront of project management today. They constantly ask themselves "Where is PM going these days?", "Where am I going as a PM?" and "What's new and cool that I could write about for my readers?".
And it's that inquisitiveness that we are bringing together here on The Pulse for you to learn from.

In 1965 Bruce W. Tuckman devised the five stages of team growth and today, we are going to take a look at all 7 of them... yes you heard me right all 7.
For this we welcome back Pam Stanton. We will first review the 5 traditional stages, explain why she sees the need for 7 instead of 5 and review the major differences. Then we discuss the need for us PMs to be masters of our soft skills for team development, how we sometimes fail in this endeavor and how the 7 stages may help us overcome that.
We are still in the process of giving away 2 copies of her book The Project Whisperer. One copy - as always - is reserved for our premium listeners and one copy is up for grabs. To win the book please go to our Facebook Fan Page, look for the post about the book giveaway and leave a comment.
