The Blog Awards!

Posted on November 26th, 2009 by by Elizabeth

The lovely people at Computer Weekly announced the winners of the IT Blog Awards last night at a presentation at Shoreditch House.  And I’m really pleased to say that – thanks to you all – I won the Project Management category!  I was also the runner up in the IT Professional Female category – Flynny’s [...]

Vote for me!

Posted on November 15th, 2009 by by Elizabeth

This is a shameless plug:  I’ve been nominated in the Computer Weekly IT Blog Awards again this year and I would love to keep the title I won last year in the project management category.  I have also been nominated in the ‘best female IT professional’ category, and it would be nice to give the [...]

Edward Logan won the International Young Project Manager award recently, and collected his trophy at the IPMA conference in Rome at the end of last year.  I interviewed him for Projects@Work, and you can read what he had to say about the whole thing here.

Posted on December 6th, 2008 by by Elizabeth

The BCS held its annual IT Industry Awards on Thursday, at the Grosvenor House Hotel on Park Lane in London.  Everyone in the hotel was in black tie: there were are number of events taking place that evening but we were in the largest and grandest room, aptly titled The Great Room.

The Glass Hammer: Blog of the Year

Posted on November 16th, 2008 by by Elizabeth

I often get asked what are good resources for women in business and I’m pointing people more and more towards blogs as a source of up-to-date, quality information.  The Glass Hammer is a good example (and I also write for them, so I’m biased).  It’s a blog aimed at women in business, financial services and [...]

Good news!

I was really excited to find out that I had won the Project Management category of the Computer Weekly IT Blog Awards the day before yesterday. I wanted to wait until I had the official confirmation and this little image, which I got today, before putting posting about winning… just in case it wasn’t [...]

Voting for the Computer Weekly IT Blog Awards closes today, so it’s your last chance to have your say. I’d love it if you voted for A Girl’s Guide to Managing Projects – of course – but there are great nominees in all the categories. If you haven’t already, have a look at [...]

A Girl’s Guide to Managing Products?

Posted on July 11th, 2008 by by Elizabeth

If you’ve come here as a result of the Computer Weekly IT Blog Awards, after searching for A Girl’s Guide to Managing Products, then you’re in the right place. It’s not the name of the blog, and you won’t find anything about product management. There’s a typo on their website, and in this [...]
