Tipping the Balance

As an activist for the project community at NASA's Ames Research Center, I see my role as finding out what resource project managers need to help them run successful projects. I need to go out and advocate for those resources, if necessary, and I need to be supportive, not just for the projects, but also for the project managers and their teams. It's not something I can do sitting at my desk waiting for the phone to ring. To me, that's what an activist does. It's public service. In this case my public is the project-practitioner community.
