Dependencies are a critical part of #project #planning, but they aren’t always as clear cut as they may at first appear. A better understanding of hard and soft dependencies can help. ow.ly/KbNw50EePq5 via @RoffensianPM

Just as maps need legends, work breakdown structures need WBS dictionaries. Without a WBS dictionary, you aren't using your work breakdown structure to its fullest extent. Avoid this mistake and learn to create one in this blog: ow.ly/uiKT50Ej4tY #projectmanagement #WBS
