Readers

Would you like to write for us? We are keen to receive
your articles, photographs and videos of your success
stories and challenges.
hat do you think about the new revamped
PM@CH?
We have worked hard to revamp the PM@CH as a new
emagazine, which we hope you will find interesting
and easy to read. While you can read the journal
online, you can also download it and read it offline or
print it out. What do you think? What do you like and
what would you change? We would love to hear your
comments and suggestions.
As PM@CH is now a digital production, we can integrate videos and photos and we are keen to increase
the use of multimedia in the journal over time. If you
experience a successstory in your project, why don’t
you video or photograph the outcome instead of
writing about it? Or perhaps you have a planning
challenge and you are not quite sure how to tackle it?
Perhaps other readers can help if you share your
experience with them through PM@CH.
How did you find our 2016 feature on Creativity and
Project Management?
Do you have an interesting story to share with us
about a project you have managed or are managing
now? Do you have examples of how you planned a
project in the creative field or where the creative
process was a key element? If so, don’t hesitate to get
in touch with us!
