Hi, Stockdam!

Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

You’re absolutely right—when used correctly, project management tools can do their job well.

The real challenge often isn’t the tools themselves but how they’re applied. Misalignment between tools, processes, and goals is where many teams run into trouble.

I also agree that the core principles of project management have stood the test of time. However, I’d argue that what’s “modern” about project management today is how those principles are being adapted to new ways of working—whether it’s remote collaboration, increased agility, or the need to navigate faster-paced environments.

The tools, methods, and even terminology may evolve, but the fundamentals do remain solid.

As for the tone of the post, I appreciate your perspective.

My goal is always to share insights that spark thought or discussion, so if the message came across differently, I’ll reflect on that for future posts.

I value constructive feedback like yours—it keeps the conversation balanced and grounded.

Thanks again for engaging!
