About Us
We are Project Together —
and we are just getting started.
A reference, a community, and a movement for everyone who runs projects — regardless of methodology, industry, or experience level.
Who We Are
Not a platform. Not a course. A community built on shared knowledge.
Project Management Reference started as a place to make PMBOK 8 genuinely useful — not just a reference to cite in exams, but a roadmap to apply in real projects. Over time, it became something more: a gathering point for practitioners, agilists, entrepreneurs, and anyone determined to run their projects well.
We believe that project management is not a methodology reserved for certified professionals in large corporations. It is a way of thinking — one that belongs to anyone who has a goal, a team, a deadline, or a dream they want to turn into reality.
Project Together is the name we give to that belief. We grow together. We learn from each other. Every contribution — a correction, an example, a template, a story from the field — makes this resource better for everyone who comes after you.
Built with care. Reviewed in detail.
Every number here represents a commitment to depth, not volume. See our live OKRs with current key results →
Our Values
Six values. No exceptions.
These are not aspirational — they are operational. They describe how every piece of content on this site is made.
Transparency
Our OKRs are published on this site — goals, key results, and current numbers, updated monthly. Every contributor is credited by name. We operate in the open because accountability cannot survive in private.
Rigor
Every article cites the PMBOK 8 Guide by page. Two real-world examples per process. A ready-to-use template. We do not publish until the content is complete enough to apply on a real project today.
Generosity
The best resources here are free. Always. Templates, tools, articles — open to every practitioner regardless of budget or certification level. Quality knowledge behind a paywall reaches fewer projects.
Practicality
Theory without application is just vocabulary. Every process article ends with an exercise for your actual project — not a textbook scenario. That is the baseline, not the exception.
Community
This reference will never be finished — that is the design. Every correction, example, and template submitted by practitioners like you makes it more useful for every professional who follows. We grow together or not at all.
Growth
PM is a discipline in motion. PMBOK 8 replaced PMBOK 7. Agile rewrote how teams deliver. AI is changing what project managers do every week. We stay current so your practice does not fall behind.
The Story
Why this exists.
I passed the PMP exam and went back to work. Within a week, I was in a project that did not match any of the clean diagrams from my study materials. The processes were right. The real project was messier, faster, and full of decisions the guides never described.
I started writing. First for myself — to document what actually happened versus what the methodology said should happen. Then for colleagues who asked the same questions. Then for a newsletter that grew into a 40-week series covering every PMBOK 8 process with real examples.
That series became a book. The book became this site. And this site is becoming a community.
Project Together exists because project management is too useful to stay behind a paywall, a certification wall, or a methodology wall. If you run projects — any kind of projects — you belong here.

Project Together
This is what we believe.
“Every practitioner has knowledge someone else needs.”
“Methodology serves the project — the project does not serve the methodology.”
“A correction submitted is a gift to every future reader.”
“Agile or waterfall, corporate or solo, certified or curious — if you run projects, you are one of us.”
“We publish our goals. We publish our progress. We publish our gaps. That is what transparency means.”
