25.01.2022 Since the pandemic began, substance abuse, domestic violence, suicide, and psychological distress have increased astronomically. We are living in abnormal times and without the right support network, we can't expect ourselves to maintain a normal state of mental health. Liptember is a campaign dedicated to raising funds and awareness for women's mental health, harnessing the true potential of the collective, encouraging, and inspiring people to listen, share, and learn. Make... it your mission this September - ask her how she's doing. Whether that be your mother, daughter, sister, wife, partner, friend, colleague, neighbour or your local barista. All it takes is a simple question to make the difference between a bad day and a really bad day. Chuck on some colourful lippy underneath that facemask and help the women in your life have a good day! https://buff.ly/2YIiuHG #Liptember #MetaSupports #ForAGoodCause #MentalHealth

21.01.2022 The days of the siloed project manager and skilled development team are becoming a thing of the past. In many cases, the knowledge gap between the project manager and the developer is large, making it nearly impossible for any non-technical person to effectively manage the entire scope without significant input from the development team. In their latest blog post, DevOps explores 5 Project Management skills that every Developer should have. As they explain in the article - ...we are no longer living in a world where teams can speak different technical languages. At MetaPM we believe everyone should have the basic technical know-how of Project Management fundamentals. That's why most of our staff (regardless of their specialisation) have completed one of our many accredited courses. Take a look at the courses coming up here: https://buff.ly/3aj1q2q and take a look at DevOps' article here: https://buff.ly/30lObL2 #ProjectManagement #Upskill #Learning #MetaPM

20.01.2022 Knowing which projects to invest in, and those that will promote a company's growth, is a challenge; on the other hand, investing in the wrong projects could lead to lost revenues, lost markets and, in extreme cases, make a company's existence unviable.

17.01.2022 I think that it would be safe to say that R U OK Day is more important this year than any other year we've seen.

R U OK has heaps of useful resources to help guide this conversation to get below the surface level "I'm fine" to find out how they really are. ... #RUOKDAY #MentalHealth #MetaSupports See more

17.01.2022 A recent report from the Project Management Institute indicated that 7 in 10 project professionals say their organisation invests in and rewards innovation.

"More than half of project leaders rate their organisations as below average when it comes to facilitating innovation and motivating project professionals to pursue new ideas."

15.01.2022 This years' R U OK Day theme is 'There's more to say after R U OK?'. You don't have to be an expert conversationalist to be able to continue this dialogue and show your support, but sometimes it can be tricky. The R U OK website has a full conversation guide with tips to keep you on track. If you know someone that might be struggling and you're not sure how you'll handle it in the moment, have a look through the useful resources on their website. R U OK Day may be once a yea...r, but checking up on each other on a more regular basis is crucial to our current mental health crisis. You know how good it feels when someone shows that they care about you - do the same for someone else. https://buff.ly/2L8xiNG #RUOKDay #PayItForward #MentalHealth #MetaSupports

15.01.2022 In Australia, nine children pass unexpectedly every day. That's more than 3,000 babies and toddlers a year - which is more than double the national road toll.

Send your mate a silly photo or a simple "how are you going?" to check up on them. To all our friends of MetaPM, we say Happy International Day of Friendship.... #InternationalDayofFriendship #MetaPM

08.01.2022 Companies are trying to buy innovation, but you need to enable the organization before you go invest, Khan of Etihad says.

With an Australian diagnosed with cancer every 4 minutes, it's hard to believe that anyone could be untouched by it - whether that be through a loved one, an old school friend, a workmate, or even yourself.
