Who am I and why am I taking project management?

I am Pei-Jung Chiang. In school my major was graphic design and I thought I would always in this field untill taking MBA program. I still keep my passion on art and design, but I have more interests in business right now since it teaches me how to make more money. (don't know if it's true yet...we'll see :))

I am now working in a start-up Chinese newspaper company as an art editor. Since it is a start-up, almost everyone is required to participate in each project. I like it personally because that makes me learn more by intergrate with each other. Project management has became so important to us because the news update every moment and we need to generate it before releasing to the public. So, if we don't have good management, the project will be affected immediately.

So does other business, project management plays an important role of making good product or not. I guess I will have to learn the knowledge if I get a chance to own a business.

What I expect to learn? Well, I would say everything since it's a new field to me. Looking forward to learning something new!!
