[REPLAY] How to Approach Your Writing Like a Project Manager

[REPLAY] How to Approach Your Writing Like a Project Manager

How can you break projects into tasks to make them easier to manage? As academics we are constantly juggling multiple projects, and being able to approach them with the skills of a project manager can be the difference between smooth sailing and burn out.

We're on a short break from publishing new episodes, so today's episode is a replay of one of our most popular past episodes. It's all about learning tools and systems for approaching your writing like a project manager.

I hope you enjoy this replay episode, and we'll be back with brand new episodes in September.
