2024.06.02 18:06 LifeOfSpirit17 What are your job functions and what industry are you in?

Just curious, in my job we don't really do any SOW or WBS or some of the other formal project management documents/procedures.
My job is essentially to manage the staff responsible for the project's completion, send updates and communicate with the client, and to finalize the bill, which we charge pretty much flat fees for everything, so I'm not tracking labor hours etc. Most of the project plan itself is done before I am even assigned a project, basically handled by our client and an account manager.
I also work in Marketing and our avg project lifecycle is very short, like 2 weeks. But I want to get more experience in the more tangible aspects like creating charters and costing projects, coming up with timelines etc. but this job just isn't it.
Wondering if others here would mind sharing what industry you're in and specific PM functions (or others) you perform?
Maybe kind of something like this as a template
  1. Role: Project manager
  2. Job functions: Create SOW, Create WBS, All Project Costing, managing teams for delivery and execution, Performing *insert timeframe* updates. etc...
  3. Industry: Things and Stuff.
Example documents and functions including but not limited to:

2024.06.01 23:22 9mHoq7ar4Z How to customise the project sidebar in Jira Cloud

Hi All,
I feel like this must have been answered elsewhere but I can not really find anything.
Im still new at Jira and am testing things on the free account. I notice that the Project sidebar on the left of the page is different between different templates.
For example the Default template that you start with has one set of links (Timeline, Backlog, ...), then if you start a blank project there is no sidebar on the left but instead it looks like there are links on the top (Summary, Board, List, ...) and then if you start another template like the bug tracking the Project sidebar is populated with a set of filters.
I thought that there would be a setting that would be able to adjust the Blank template according to anything the other templates already offer by default but I am not able to find this setting.
Is anyone able to explain this and post a link to the relevent documentation?
Thanks

2024.06.01 15:08 odesauria Just submitted as a second author, but...

It was such a strange experience in retrospect. A more established colleague sort of guilted me into doing this project with her. I didn't want to because I'd worked with her previously and had had a nightmarish experienceince, hating the way she thinks, works, and writes (which seems rushed, chaotic, unfounded, and vague to me - I don't understand how any of her work gets accepted). But since I was going to do it anyway, I figured it'd better be something that actually interests me and makes sense to me. So I wrote the proposal. We went back and forth a few times and she agreed. So, in her mind, this is all my idea, I made her do it, and I'm leading the project.
We are on a very tight timeline. In the early stages we sort of alternate taking the lead prompting each other to move forward. At some point I'm thinking it's just not possible to get it done in time for the call for papers, so I suggest we call it quits. She responds by significantly delineating and limiting the scope and prompting me to move forward with that. I do.
I start taking it very seriously, finding and analyzing lit (the study is partly documentary) We both recruit interviewees and conduct interviews together. I do the analysis and write up findings on my own (I have no idea what she would have done for this part, as she didn't even seem to understand what our data was or how to draw conclusions from it). She's supposed to be writing the intro and methods. All this time I've been thinking I'll want to be second author, since I was so ambivalent about the project and wasn't confident I'd like the end result.
We're approaching the deadline, and I send her part of the methods, the findings (which she loves), and a draft for the discussion. She's supposed to complete the intro, methods and discussion. When I get it back, her sections are so monumentally disastrous to me that I rewrite them. Also, parts of the findings are now disfigured (which she herself realized in hindsight and said I could get back to their original shape). At this point it's so close to the deadline that we're not meeting anymore - just texting and sending things back and forth. We never discussed author order (I know, I know), but her assumption matches mine, because she entered our names in a paper template and she's first author.
The last few rounds of revisions from her I actually find helpful. I finalize and submit just in time. The paper would have needed closer revisions, and I'm sure there'll be mistakes, but now I'm thinking the article is actually decent and a cool contribution. And it also occurs to me that I did most of it...

2024.06.01 10:51 Ok_Statement_5739 Any data careers without data visualization?

I've been a data analyst in a consulting firm for three years now. What I have started to dread is the data visualization bit, the fruits of my labor. It's not because of the tools we use, currently Tableau, Power BI, Excel, Powerpoint, and the occasional Python. It isn't my job title because my superiors are also equally involved in the visuals. Maybe it's because I'm in corporate. These are products we ultimately deliver to clients and stakeholders and are often bloated with "innovative" beautification of results and verbose language to provide the most "bang for the buck". We do this every week, month, quarter, and year. Sticking entirely to a template is unacceptable. I strongly think data visualization is a given for a data analyst so I'm starting to think this is not the career path or place for me.
What are some entry level data or adjacent careers that sound like a better fit? Ideally, the data exploration/analysis I perform is the product with succinct highlights delivered to my direct higher-up. I've ruled out accounting, data science, and quantitative finance.

2024.05.31 21:58 Present_Position9222 React: A Balanced Look at its Strengths and Weaknesses

React is a JavaScript library created by Facebook and is a library and tool for building user interface components based on JavaScript. Although React is a library rather than a language, it is widely used in web development. This library first appeared in May 2013 and is now one of the most popular front-end libraries for web development.
React is open source and aims to simplify the complex process of building interactive user interfaces. Imagine a user interface that React builds as a collection of components, each responsible for the output of a small piece is a reusable piece of HTML code.
It is also a declarative and component-based library that allows developers to build reusable UI components and follows a Virtual DOM (Document Object Model) approach that optimizes rendering performance by minimizing DOM updates. React is fast and works well with other tools and libraries. We use React in different parts of our website
B. What does React Js do?
Typically, you request a webpage by typing its URL into your web browser. Your browser then sends a request for that webpage, which your browser renders. If you click a link on that webpage to go to another page on the website, a new request is sent to the server to get that new page. This back-and-forth loading pattern between your browser (the client) and the server continues for every new page or resource you try to access on a website. This typical approach to loading websites works just fine, but consider a very data-driven website. The back and forth loading of the full webpage would be redundant and
create a poor user experience. Additionally, when data changes in a traditional JavaScript application, it requires manual DOM manipulation to reflect these changes. You must identify which data changed and update the DOM to reflect those changes, resulting in a full page reload.
React takes a different approach by letting you build what’s known as a single-page application (SPA). A single-page application loads only a single HTML document on the first request. Then, it updates the specific portion, content, or body of the webpage that needs updating using JavaScript. This pattern is known as client-side routing because the client doesn’t have to reload the full webpage to get a new page each time a user makes a new request. Instead, React intercepts the request and only fetches and changes the sections that need changing without having to trigger a full page reload. This approach results in better performance and a more dynamic user experience. React relies on a virtual DOM, which is a copy of the actual DOM. React’s virtual DOM is immediately reloaded to reflect this new change whenever there is a change in the data state. After which, React compares the virtual DOM to the actual DOM to figure out what exactly has changed. React then figures out the least expensive way to patch the actual DOM with that update without rendering the actual DOM. As a result, React’s components and UIs very quickly reflect the changes since you don’t have to reload an entire page every time something updates.
react.js C. Why React
React’s popularity today has eclipsed that of all other front-end development frameworks. Here is why:
· Easy creation of dynamic applications: React makes it easier to create dynamic web applications because it requires less coding and offers more functionality, as opposed to JavaScript, where coding often gets complex very quickly.
· Improved performance: React uses Virtual DOM, thereby creating web applications faster. Virtual DOM compares the components’ previous states and updates only the items in the Real DOM that were changed, instead of updating all of the components again, as conventional web applications do.
· Reusable components: Components are the building blocks of any React application, and a single app usually consists of multiple components. These components have their logic and controls, and they can be reused throughout the application, which in turn dramatically reduces the application’s development time.
· Unidirectional data flow: React follows a unidirectional data flow. This means that when designing a React app, developers often nest child components within parent components. Since the data flows in a single direction, it becomes easier to debug errors and know where a problem occurs in an application at the moment in question.
· Small learning curve: React is easy to learn, as it mostly combines basic HTML and JavaScript concepts with some beneficial additions. Still, as is the case with other tools and frameworks, you have to spend some time to get a proper understanding of React’s library.
· It can be used for the development of both web and mobile apps: We already know that React is used for the development of web applications, but that’s not all it can do. There is a framework called React Native, derived from React itself, that is hugely popular and is used for creating beautiful mobile applications. So, in reality, React can be used for making both web and mobile applications.
· Dedicated tools for easy debugging: Facebook has released a Chrome extension that can be used to debug React applications. This makes the process of debugging React web applications faster and easier.
· The above reasons more than justify the popularity of the React library and why it is being adopted by a large number of organizations and businesses. Now let’s familiarize ourselves with React’s features.
D. React Js Advantages
React JS is actively maintained by Meta and a community of skilled developers and companies. It is known to be fast, scalable, simple, and highly advantageous to be used to create large web applications where we can change data without reloading the page. In this article, we will talk about its various advantages.
D.1 Effortless Maintenance
Creating large applications with multiple integrations is a complex task; however, maintaining it with changing business requirements can be more complicated and expensive. But you don’t need to worry, as React JS got your back with its modular and flexible architecture, leading to modernizing each component independently without affecting others. In addition, objects defined for a particular element can be reassigned to other components to reduce the developer’s effort. As a result, less time is consumed in modernization, code is maintained, and all this is performed economically.
D.2 Fast Rendering
Handling high-volume user data and updating the application simultaneously is every enterprise’s primary business and technical goal. React JS comprises the in-built functionality of virtual DOM, making the rendering faster and enhancing the overall user experience. In addition, it makes the application lightweight, leading to boost performance and productivity. Moreover, it leverages the developers tobuild cutting-edge applications without considering state transitions, making the development timeline shorter. Also, Virtual DOM’s in-memory tree representation of real DOM makes the process sprightly accelerated between the call and display functions.
D.3 Search Engine Friendly
Every service-providing organization wants its website to display at the top of list of the search engines to reach the target audience. For this purpose, search engine optimization is performed. Many websites cannot reach the top search pages, as JavaScript pages are complex to read and rank across search engines. But, the Virtual DOM feature of ReactJS renders the application more accurate and returns the web app as a typical web page. Due to this, search bots are able to crawl through the React JS website and effortlessly analyze the relevance and rank the website on the search engine.
D.4 Reliable Development Tools
Having authentic tools for crafting and debugging an application is an essential requirement of software creation. Furthermore, it aids both the development team and users in integrating and utilizing forefront features. Developers can access several developments, designing, and debugging tools freely over the internet to fabricate React JS application development. They can also seamlessly add extensions of these tools to their Google Chrome and Firefox browsers. As a result, the development team can inspect hierarchies as they generate in Virtual DOM, and it also enables them to isolate and extend the functionality of a particular component.
D.5 Redux Facility
Redux helps to effortlessly store and manage the different states of large and complex applications for providing a seamless experience to the end user. Hence, it is one of the most desirable elements found in React JS. The primary purpose of Redux is to enable other elements to access different transition states without creating a bottleneck, interacting with the child module, and utilizing a callback. Additionally, it makes code debugging and testing easy and improves server rendering.
D.6 Offers Mobile Application Development
React JS is probably seen as a library for building websites and web apps, but it has been upgraded to be considered for creating native mobile applications in recent years. The phrase “learn once, write, anywhere” purely blends with the feature of React JS, as it allows to use same code structure and components for innovating mobile apps development. The applications crafted using React JS can be installed, configured, and utilized on Android and iOS devices. In addition, its multi-platform compatibility aids organizations in building a relationship with their users diversified across different operating systems. With this open-source library, you will be capable of extending your digital presence from desktops to mobile devices.
D.7 Stable and Streamline Code
Having a fault-tolerant front end is the requirement of every organization, and you can entirely depend upon React JS to accomplish this development goal. The React JS application holds the code for each unit independently, aiding developers in performing unit tests on every component and precisely patching potential loopholes. Additionally, with a streamlined code structure, any software development company finds it easier to reinforce the business solution and adjoin features according to current business requirements. Moreover, the stability of React JS refers to flawlessly integrating any change and smoothly running it on users’ devices, reducing the probability of system crashes and clearing the barriers in the road to migrate the system to a newer version.
D.8 Ample Community Support
If we compare React JS with any other open-source JavaScript library, its community is immensely growing, and thousands of people contribute to it daily. Around 1200 contributions are made to the React JS repository with new templates and resolved code queries every day. You can quickly resolve the difficulties during development and even use pre-developed templates to shorten the time-to-market. Additionally, Facebook Inc. actively contributes to the React JS GitHub repository, ensuring the integration of only legitimate modifications and prevention of malicious codes.
D.9 Comes with JSX
JSX is an optional extended feature of React JS used for creating components for the application. The main objective of these tailored elements is to make code simple and leaner for large enterprise-graded solutions. While writing code, you will benefit from it as it displays more errors, exceptions, and warning messages, which you can handle in the initial phases and guarantee the delivery of a quality product. Moreover, it helps the developers by providing a better insight into the working of the user interface inside the JavaScript code.
D.10 Component Re-usability
Components are the most creative way of building an application from scratch and then upgrading it to a futuristic, cutting-edge business solution. React JS provides the architecture and ecosystem to build business software based on components and reuse each component multiple times. Also, experts can utilize a particular module built for a web application for a mobile application. With this, efforts are reduced, the timeline is minimized, and it directly affects the cost to minimal for software development. In addition, it allows you to use the most optimized components in different applications to make them more appealing with a consistent look.

2024.05.31 19:28 GoodBerryKC Cost of App "Starter Bundle" Work

I recently approached a colleague of mine on an app business I'd like to start with him (he's a mobile app product manager in his day job and has launched several successful corporate apps).
Ideally, he would've been my co-founder and product owner (understanding we'd be outsourcing main dev), but he's recently decided that he wants to start his own app building agency. While he's very interested in helping kickstart this thing, he's focused more on his own business. He mentioned that his team could provide the following bundle of work for 10K. We've discussed the business at length and I believe he'd potentially (over)deliver on these items, but just unsure if this is in line with how much I'd spend with other agencies for this type of work....
For the project mentioned last week, we were considering a bundle of the following work: - Planning priority features and development scope for intended releases (MVP, phase I, II, etc as needed) - Planning resources and proposed timelines for the above - Logo, app icon, brand guide, voice and tone, and visual design book + app store release assets - “Happy-path” prototype or animatic of the core software - Presentation deck template and help with content
I also know that I would be able to do an 'ok' job putting this stuff together myself, I'd just be much more comfortable pitching my idea to other potential co-founders or investors if I had material put together by someone who has "been there, done that". Any/all feedback is much appreciated!

2024.05.31 16:02 McNoxey Can I easily link pages across multiple databases to tasks in a singular database?

Hi!
I'm mapping out a data warehouse rebuild using Notion, and my current structure looks like this:
I want to show a timeline of dependencies from Metrics > other Metrics > fields, however i seem to only be able to create dependencies within the same database. I could put all of these items into a singular db and use tags to separate them - that's one option.
But I also have a Task database anyway, so I'm thinking it probably just makes sense to relate each of these pages to a task in the task DB. Is there an easy way to do that?
Am I overthinking it? I come from an analytics engineering background where I generally prefer having many tables with attributes specific to that table, but maybe it's better to just make each of these items a Task with templates set up to differentiate the Metrics, Fields and Tables? Is there any concern (from a best practice standpoint) that my task DB may end up with hundreds of various property columns?

2024.05.31 13:31 Yurii_S_Kh History Timeline, Reconstruction of Lost Towns and Art Treasures. Teaching Church history at a Sunday school

History Timeline, Reconstruction of Lost Towns and Art Treasures. Teaching Church history at a Sunday school
Author and Sunday school students holding the history timeline
I have been teaching Sunday school for over fifteen years. While already a teacher at the catechism department of a theological college, I finished the course there. Currently, I mostly teach children aged eight to eleven in our middle level class.
While preschoolers readily come to the right conclusions and emotions when offered an interesting story, the elementary schoolchildren typically need a little more information to achieve this
I used to teach for quite awhile the subject that had the “Church Calendar” as its working title. I talked to children about church feasts, important events from the church life, and the saints. So, if preschoolers easily came to the right conclusions and emotions when entertained with an interesting story, the elementary students needed a little more time and information to achieve this. They ask a lot of profound questions, correlate my story with the historical events they have already heard about, and opine on the actions, background and consequences.
In this regard, I was no longer satisfied with the idea of “telling them something about the saints.” Children are more interested in the context of the time, but when you skip and first tell one story followed by another, you end up with a lot of inconsistencies as a result. For example, in one lesson, we are talking about one monastic saint who lived in the woods of the Russian north in the twelfth century. Then, at the next lesson, we discuss a Roman martyr from the time of Nero, then later on, the life and works of one of the apostles. But the children would constantly distract you by asking the myriad of questions about who reigned, what they wore, and what they rode at the time.
During the Church history lesson
Over time, I conceived the idea of teaching a course on the universal Church history. Sure, I teach young children and so it is a scary and momentous undertaking, but I wanted to reveal to them a holistic view of the development of Christianity. They also learn about the Old and New Testaments, so history would have complemented their understanding of it, bringing it forward, closer to our time. As for the stories about the saints, they would have logically fitted into this context.
But I needed to arrive at a core concept to build such a course. Young schoolchildren cannot be given lectures—it would kill their interest and motivation. They need something that appeals to their experience, and at the same time, prompts their active participation during the lesson. That’s how the idea of creating a history timeline was born.
Of course, this is not my invention, nor is it anything new; history teachers actively use it in classrooms. But this idea is truly ingenious in its simplicity—displaying the movement of time on paper, placing events one after another.
So, all I needed was:
  • sheets of paper I cut in half lengthwise;
  • a glue stick to connect the cut sheets together into a long scroll;
  • a pencil and a ruler to separate the images from the captions;
  • marker pens so that children could write dates, names, and events;
  • colored printouts—mostly icon reproductions.
I prepared the paper scroll in advance, but we glued the images and added notes at the end of each lesson. The children were assigned roles in advance: someone glued, while another added notes. I allocated about five to seven minutes for this assignment.
There was nothing special about this set of lessons. At first we tried to remember what we learned during the previous lessons, and then, in a free-flow discussion, we talked about a new topic. I made a PowerPoint presentation for each lesson. This is a critical element; no colorful stories sans pictures will ever work for younger schoolchildren. Pictures help them to visualize the epoch and remember the important things.
Timeline of historical events
What were our images? First of all, the images of saints: reproductions of icons, paintings and graphic art. We started our conversations about each saint with an impromptu research: the children looked at the icon and contemplated what they could say about the person on the icon based on his appearance, clothing, and the objects he held in his hands. Over time, we learned to distinguish the holy hierarchs from the monastic saints, and martyrs from the holy rulers—the Equals-to-the-Apostles. At the end of our lessons, we would usually look at our icon and try to analyze it once again.
I also made sure to include photos and drawings of locations of the events we have talked about. The Egyptian desert and its monasteries made a strong impression on the children. It looks so unlike the one in the “Aladdin” cartoon: none of those dunes, only stones, cliffs, and the sky pale from the heat. While we were looking at those photos, we had a conversation about ancient monasticism.
The children showed great interest while viewing pictures of reconstructions of ancient cities, such as Alexandria, Antioch, Cappadocia, Constantinople, and Rome. They studied palaces, hippodromes, temples, baths, figures of people and horses. This way, they saw the lesson material coming to life before their eyes. At the same time, the modern photos of those places reinforced their impressions about them.
At first glance, it may seem that it is necessary to talk only about the saints and important events in the life of the Church, while the rest is a waste of time. They only have one lesson every week, and it’s a short lesson, so why don’t we just speak more about the deeds of the righteous people and miracles? I tried it. It gives poor results.
If you focus on giving the children only the hagiographic material, there is a danger they will begin to perceive it all as fairy tales
If you give children only hagiographic material and talk exclusively about Holy Tradition, there is a danger that they will begin to perceive it all as fairy tales. Many of them do perceive them as fairy tales, especially the ones who rarely or never attend church (we have such children in our Sunday school). What can they think of St. Spyridon of Tremithus holding a brick with fire bursting out of it and water flowing from it? How can we convey to them that this is not a fairy tale, but the saint was one of those who preserved and defended the true Christian faith? This is where historical material comes to our help.
The children enjoyed our lessons. They asked a lot of questions and were happy to learn new things: “We’ve got this icon at home!” “My mother read about this to me!” “I saw it at church!” Or, one of them had been to Turkey and saw the ancient ruins similar to the ones I showed on the pictures. Others watched a cartoon about St. George the Victorious. Someone else is fond of Roman legions and is happy to add to my story. Ancient history comes to life, and visual elements help in this process.
Before each lesson, the children unfold the ribbon of time. They look at the pictures and reread the captions. They compare who is older, St. Nicholas or St. Athanasius of Alexandria? What happened earlier—the Dormition of the Most Holy Mother of God or the First Apostolic Council?
We learned the course of the general history of the Church—from the Descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Apostles to the fight against iconoclasts—in two years. I intentionally took my time and didn’t plan these lessons to last long; it was more important to see how the children reacted, to return to one topic and stay longer on another. It was interesting to experiment—some topics were a hit, while others were taken in poorly and didn’t stir any enthusiasm. For example, the children really enjoyed discussing Tertullian's words, “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of Christianity,” but the conversation about heresies and the fight against them was difficult and way too abstract for them.
Next year, I plan to begin a study of the history of the Russian Church with the same group of students, and create a new timeline. Of course, we didn’t get to the Church schism, but we didn’t need to—it's too complicated for younger schoolchildren. It is enough that we have looked at the first formative stages in Church history, from the Apostles who gathered in the Upper Room, to the Christian capital city of Constantinople. Children will grow bigger and study these topics once again, dwelling more deeply and gaining new information. The major thing is to keep their interest alive.

2024.05.31 08:52 skydom_solutions How Do You Combine Multiple Templates and Add-Ins into a Single Document? 🤔

Hey everyone,
I've been grappling with a challenge that I suspect many of you might have encountered: integrating multiple templates, like add-ins, into a single document. Specifically, how do you manage to include tools like a **Gantt chart**, a **timeline**, and a **brainstorming template** all within one workspace without running into issues?
It seems like something that should be straightforward, but I find it often isn't. I'm curious to hear how others are handling this. Do you have any tricks or tools that you use to simplify this process? 🛠️
**Looking for Community Input:**
Thanks in advance for your help and looking forward to our discussion!
Cheers!

I manage an independent record label. I'm proud of what I've built to manage our work - everything exists within 4 databases. Here's an example of our dashboard 🙌
I'm a label manager at an independent record label/management company. I'm also a freelance operations manager and love systemising creative businesses so people have more time for creative stuff. I've been using Notion for about 6 months, and mainly used Monday before that. I've learnt a lot from this community so wanted to share a breakdown of my dashboard in the hope it might help others!
1. The Databases
Everything you see here exists in one of 4 databases in a PARA set up.
  1. Areas / Resources
  2. Projects
  3. Tasks
  4. Notes
There are a ton of benefits of this approach, to name a few:
  • I can used Linked Views to filter the information down to what matters for a particular context (E.g. a Linked View on our marketing dashboard that shows all videographers we've saved in the Areas / Resources database)
  • I never have to double handle an item. (E.g. if we change a task deadline or name in one page, it is reflected everywhere.)
  • Every item can relate to another.* (E.g. Write a press release (TASK) for XYZ album release (PROJECT) for ABC artist (AREA))
2. The Dashboard Sections
  1. Shortcuts - for capturing quick notes/issues/tasks
  2. Values/ Rock - our core focus - i.e. company values, and rocks for that quarter
  3. What's on - an overview of upcoming 'key' tasks (e.g. releases, announcements, etc)
  4. Projects - projects with a defined end date, made up of smaller tasks
  5. Areas - ongoing projects without a defined end date, (e.g. artists, finance, process, marketing, etc)
  6. Notes - for quick thoughts as well as templates for meeting minutes
  7. Tasks - day-to-day tasks that contribute to the completion of projects, grouped by person
  8. Resources - useful pieces of information that can be applied to tasks, projects, areas (e.g. contacts, articles
I have a lot more standardised pages and could go into a lot more detail (timelines, issue dashboards, synced cals), but I'll save it for now. I'm a huge advocate of the PARA method for organisation and Traction by Gino Wickman for business management.
I've worked with a few labels and tech companies so far doing this, and am considering starting a consultancy for small creative businesses (labels, agencies, studios, etc). What do you guys think? Does this look like something that might work for you? Or is it too complicated. I welcome others' thoughts and feedback..
If anyone is interested in learning more or even connecting please leave a comment or hit my DMs :)
