Just food for thought: Have any of you found ways to blend PMP with creative workflows or does it clash more than it helps?

Curious to hear your thoughts.

Hi Carlo, it is difficult to answer this question without more details on the exact creative workflow you are referring to.
I can imagine scenarios where PM methods might work very well in fields related to creative pursuits. For instance, if you are managing a marketing campaign complete with external vendors and internal processes to get creatives approved and out the door, that would be a great place to use PM methods.
If you are writing your own book, that would also be a great place to use PM methods, not in a rigid manner, but in a way that will help you stay on track.
Perhaps, if you gave this group a specific description, you would get tailored answers to your specific situation :)
