A few weeks ago, I read a post that really stayed with me (literally, I saved it on my Readwise Reader).

It was called “Are You a Product Person Lost on Substack? Here’s the Map” byKaro (Product with Attitude). You can check that map here.

In that post, she described something very familiar: the frustration of searching for fresh content, only to find dead newsletters, corporate brochures disguised as insights, and those famous “Why I’m starting this newsletter” posts that never went anywhere.

Reading that, I had a simple thought.

This is exactly what happens when you search for project management, too.

So, I decided to create a version for our project management folks.

This is not a ranking. There is no top X. Ok?

This is me simply sharing people who are writing useful, honest, and real project management content.

People who reflect, teach, and talk about the actual work, not just the theory.

If you see someone missing on the list, PLEASE, leave a comment and let’s keep this up to date (or we can create the Map v2).
