Project Management is Boring

The Quiet Comeback of Planning


Listen Later

For years, “planning” has been treated like a dirty word in project management. Too slow. Too rigid. Too waterfall. Too… boring. And yet, here we are.

In this episode of Project Management Is Boring, we talk about why detailed planning is quietly making a comeback — even in organizations that swear they’re agile. Not because frameworks failed, but because reality has a way of punishing wishful thinking.

This isn’t an argument against agility. It’s a conversation about why strong execution still depends on thoughtful upfront work, clear assumptions, and plans that are allowed to evolve instead of being avoided altogether. If you’ve ever watched a project stumble not because the team lacked talent, but because no one slowed down long enough to think, this episode is for you.
