Do You Know What “Concatenation” Means?
Have you heard of the word concatenation? It might sound complicated, but it’s really just a fancy way of saying “linking things together in a series.” In project management, we use this idea when connecting tasks, data, or even ideas to create a bigger picture or a seamless process. For example, when managing a project timeline, you might concatenate smaller tasks to form a sequence that leads to completing a major milestone. Similarly, in reporting, data from multiple sources can be concatenated into one clear and useful summary. It’s all about making things work better by bringing the right pieces together. So, what about you? Have you used concatenation in your work—or maybe without even realizing it? Let us know in the comments or by voting in the poll! Your insights might inspire others to think differently about how they link things together in their projects.

Lessons Learned: Creating My WBS
Before this week’s assignment, I thought the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) would be a pretty straightforward, small document based on what I’d studied for my PMP. But after diving into it, I now see just how crucial the WBS is in shaping the overall project plan. It’s the backbone that helps ensure all the details are covered, making project planning more thorough and inclusive. I did hit a few bumps along the way, especially when it came to navigating technical IT jargon and figuring out who’s responsible for what deliverable, and what stakeholders need to be involved in such a large-scale project. That said, I’m actually grateful for the challenge—it pushed me to think more critically about roles, responsibilities, and the finer points of project planning. It was a tough but rewarding exercise, and I feel much more prepared for tackling complex projects in the future!

Lessons Learned: Creating My WBS
After going through the exercise of creating a Work Breakdown Structure, I was surprised at how difficult it was for me to break down the actual work without the expertise of a team. Coming from a tech background I understood at a higher level what would be needed to execute this project, but found breaking things into bitesize subtasks down trickier than I originally thought it'd be. I found System Design to be the easiest main task to break down because I’ve had to do that for work. Development was definitely the hardest for me. To me, this emphasizes the need for your project team and SMEs in their respective areas to be able to plan a project effectively.
