Project Management + Social Networking = User-Driven Product
Improvements
Knowledge-Rich Peer Networks Enhance Project Managers' Ability to Get
Work Done
OREM, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Social media exposure via blogging, Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn
enable project and portfolio management provider AtTask (www.attask.com)
to share industry news and best practices while receiving instantaneous
feedback from customers and other project professionals.
?Customer feedback has always been an important part of the product
development process at AtTask?
Social media allows project management professionals from around the
world to tap into a bottomless pool of knowledge whenever the need
arises. Without involving a search engine, academic tome or an advanced
degree, social media makes project management best practices and the
experience of industry thought leaders accessible to any organization.
Social media has changed the way we communicate, teach and learn. Peer
networking has moved online, where it?s easy to create, build and
interact with multiple networks of knowledgeable people, without
geographic or industry boundaries. AtTask recognizes that participating
in these ?knowledge networks? is a powerful tool for learning what is
top of mind for CIOs, PMOs and other project professionals--and is
dedicated to positively contributing to the online project management
community.
The ability of social media to improve project/team collaboration with
blogs, wikis and dedicated project sites provides instant feedback and
streamlined problem resolution. This makes project teams more
efficient--able to avoid the lag time email creates, and more
resilient--able to make, and adapt to, change in real time.
?Customer feedback has always been an important part of the product
development process at AtTask,? said Kevin Hayden, AtTask?s CMO. ?Social
media like Twitter and LinkedIn provide real-time access to what our
customers and others within the industry are looking for in a project
management solution, and enable us to react quickly to those needs. It?s
rewarding to be part of the virtual assemblage of industry experts who
used to charge thousands of dollars for personal appearances, but are
now providing best practice advice just for the asking.?
