Share: • Facebook • Google+ • LinkedIn • Twitter A while back, a client emailed me about a particularly difficult article topic. Her email started off something like this: “ Megan, let me find an SME I can get you in touch with for this article… ” *Crickets* Um… find a what ? A quick Google search told me “SME” could be an acronym for Sony Music Entertainment, Society of Manufacturing Engineers, or small and medium-sized enterprises.

The technical project team is one part of that recipe, add in the business stakeholders, the executives who support the project and of course the functional/business subject matter experts and you’re off to a good start. You have a vision, you have a charter, you have a budget and a timeline and you have your team. Let’s look at one ingredient in the project recipe, the Subject Matter Expert (SME). The Subject Matter Expert (SME) is that individual who exhibits the highest level of expertise in performing a specialized job, task or skill within the organization; therefore the selection of the SME is critical to the success of the project.
