Recently I attempted to start up a metope.com group dedicated to Project Management Professional exam study. Since I have developed my own study tool over the last several years that has proven valuable in the marketplace as my PMP Exam Simulator for Windows, my proposal basically combined sharing my tool and how to use it best on light hikes around my home base in the beautiful Southern Appalachian mountains on the Chattahoochee National Forest trails, which include of course the Appalachian Trail (AT), the Benton Mackaye (BMT), which I live on, and many other trails.
This combination of study technique and hiking to me highlights the two essential skills of a project manager: the ability to budget time to study (which my Exam Sim helps you do), and the love of walking tough trails - a good analogy to something that not enough corporate managers do - manage by walking around, "on the difficult trails", as it were.
If you can relate to this, then at least buy and use my PMP Exam Sim for Windows as a study tool to help you pass your exam. If you like the meet up idea I proposed and they rejected, let me know and we can arrange a hike along the Appalachians where I can share my philosophy.
