At first sight it’s hard to connect the football vigor with the precise organizing of the project management. Look at the pictures below and try to analyze carefully:

Picture no.1
                           

Picture no.2
               


In both pictures there is striving for something – the ultimate goal.

In the first picture the two players are trying to beat each other so they can shoot a goal.

The second picture is describing how the whole team is trying to organize themselves in a manner to finish their project on time and with best quality.

Still, nothing in common?

Maybe I won’t compare these two incomparable acts, but I’ll suggest you a tool that conjuncts football and project management in one.
