Friday Again Already?
In the last time it happens again regularly that I ask myself at the latest on Friday around noon the question; "Friday noon, where is this week already again"? Yes, I really ask myself this question in this form. And not as the universally quoted TGIF - "Thank God is Friday"; because I like to work! So my motto is IIFRA - "Is it Friday really again?" ;-)
So now I'm taking some time to review selected topics of the last week. Maybe I'll be able to slow down the pace a bit... or what's the consultant term for that: "deceleration".
PM Camp Hamburg

Finally, the preparations for the „biggest class reunion of German-speaking project managers" (I like to quote myself) are underway. After a few attempts sabotaged by Covid-19, a new orga team has now been found, which has already found a place and a date:
On May 19 and 20, 2023, the PM Camp will
take place on the premises of ISM Hamburg.
More details will follow very soon. Until then, block the date in your schedule. I will definitely be there!

We received the following question just recently:
I’m using the latest version of Merlin Project on a mac and have created a project file for a client. He has requested a project handbook to be printed or read in Preview or Acrobat Reader. The project handbook should list activities and attachments in a master–detail interface and export a set of predefined properties I am interested in. I don't mind if I need to use a script but I would like the action to do all works in one go; ie. iterate the items, extract the data and create the PDF. Is this possible?
One way to implement the customer's request would certainly be to use the File > Export > Image menu to export customized project views to PDFs or to call File > Print to print your documents.
However, to meet the requirement described above, an AppleScript solution developed by us comes in handy.

Je suis sûr que beaucoup d'entre vous sont comme moi. J'organise mon emploi du temps avec des listes de choses à faire. Ainsi, aucune tâche n'est oubliée. Même la liste des tâches à faire absolument avant les fêtes est maintenant classée.
Récemment, je suis tombé sur une liste de choses à faire pour les étudiants sur le Web, qui leur donnait des tâches à accomplir pour les vacances de Noël. J'y ai lu des choses comme
- 🎬 Regarder un film de Noël
- 📖 Lire un bon livre
- 😁 Fais rire quelqu'un
- 🍪 Mangez de délicieux biscuits de Noël
- 🍹 Sirotez un délicieux punch.
Je me suis tout de suite sentie concernée, même si je ne suis plus une enfant, cette liste est maintenant sur mon bureau et j'ai l'intention de la faire pendant les fêtes. 😉
Il est temps pour moi de relever mon clavier et de profiter de Noël avec mes personnes préférées.
Toute l'équipe de ProjectWizards vous souhaite un joyeux Noël, une bonne année et le meilleur pour 2023.
Artificial Intelligence in Project Management – Blessing or Curse?

Nov. 30, 2022 permanently changed the world of so-called knowledge workers; OpenAI released access to the Chatbot ChatGPT to the interested public.
How will artificial intelligence change the project management profession? Will it make the profession easier or threaten it? These questions, of course, immediately come to mind for us project managers.
But let's ask ChatGPT itself…

In recent weeks, we have occasionally received cancellation requests due to recurring payments which the requester associates with a payment service. Although no products of our company are used, a corresponding subscription does not exist, we nevertheless get these cancellation requests.
