There is project management software and there is FLOW software. Project management software has been around for a long time. Alas, without many benefits. According to the infamous Gartner studies, or a report in The Economist[i], most projects take too long, exceed the budget or don’t deliver the agreed quality, often all three at the same time. Why is that?
A quote attributed to Albert Einstein states: “Insanity is doing the same things again and again and expecting different results.” Most project management software automates and facilitates existing practices. For example, it allows you to manage more details with less effort. But what if bringing more detail into your schedule is slowing down the flow of projects?
Here is where FLOW software comes in. FLOW software supports better practices. Practices that increase both the speed and quality of your projects. Practices like not overloading professionals, good work preparation, focusing, synchronising tasks at the strategic level and fast issue resolution of just those issues that hinder flow.
