I just realised I already do project management , but with video games. I get together a team usually 2 to 5 people. Then I work on something a few hours for up to one day to seven days . Remember the results , tweak my performance test the results on the next attempt and keep making adjustments until I have the desired results.

It’s been a year that I have been a project lead and I wished I had learned about this early on. I realize I have so much to learn. I didn’t know that project management was even a profession, I just thought it was a natural progression in the career to become a manager. Turns out it’s more than just experience in your chosen field, but management is really a different skill to master.

@AdrianaGirdler Год назад

Management really is a skill that needs to be built upon by experience and lessons learned along the way. I do have a 45 min webinar that I think will benefit you. In this free training I walk you through the five key items needed on all projects, it's what I call the FAB FIVE FUNDAMENTALS OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT. The FAB FIVE are the 5 key items that you must do on every project - if you only do 5 things, these are them! It’s a great way to simplify projects, while still doing the essentials needed to ensure project success.

There's a new position on my team for a PM, so thank you for posting these videos. I've been doing PM work my entire career, but my title has never been PM. I'm going to watch all of your videos to make sure I have a standing chance to interview against current PMs, people with PM certifications, etc.

@AdrianaGirdler 3 года назад

Hi Felicia! First I would like to thank you for watching. I hope that my content will be helpful to you as you continue to grow in your career. I have a video on Project Manager Interview questions and answers. I will leave the link below. I also have a free webinar (I will put that link below) that I think will really help you prepare as well. Just because you don't have the title of PM doesn't mean that you don't have the experience or capabilities, have confidence in yourself and the experience you have already gained to date. I wish you the best of luck! Cheers! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-k6Ii6yzB1XU.html www.slayprojectmanagement.com/webinar

I am a month into a new project manager roll and even though my past jobs contained elements of project management, this is my first solely manager position. This week I am learning fairly quickly that I need to alter my communication structure with managers and sometimes it is like drawing blood from a stone in terms of replies to my questions.

@AdrianaGirdler 3 года назад

Congratulations on your new role! Seeing that you need to make some changes is your first step toward the win! Wishing you all the best and great success with your current project. Cheers!

@AkshayKumar10xTech 7 месяцев назад

Transitioning to a dedicated project manager role comes with its unique challenges, especially in communication. Persistence and adaptability are key-consider adjusting your approach to suit different managerial styles, and don't hesitate to follow up strategically to ensure responses. Building strong rapport and clarity in communication will enhance project efficiency over time. Keep up the proactive effort!

@jorgerivera8933 Год назад

I still don’t understand. A project manager for what type of job? I kind of understand the material covered from a military leadership perspective. But how do you fit my set of skill sets (included everything that you covered) into the actual type of project in the civilian world. Can you provide a video breaking it “Barney style”. For example, “Joe is a going to build his resume, interview and accept a job as a project manager dealing with landscaping (this area can be changed), but he provided his 5 year experience as a landscaper to now accept the task of recruiting landscapers, assigning their tasks, assessing their performance as well as understanding the future landscaping projects, getting his higher ups at ease by letting them know that you know what you are doing. Then providing them with updates on the progress of the projects, etc…” this could be applied into any other type of areas as a project to manage, right?

@mattwood11 3 года назад

This video was helpful to me. I really like the idea of getting updates from your team and using those to provide an update to the client. I was a "Company Computer Guy" for 20 years but started working as a Project Manager 6 months ago. Sometimes I still feel like I don't exactly know what I should be doing with my time but these were some great pointers. Thanks!

@davidc2758 Год назад

Guess it depends on the department u work what’s their expectation of a PM. Sometime they give a PM title but want more than a pure PM. I myself r PM title but also does BA/Product. Although u r not expected to be a SME on it but with those skills set, definitely helps with understanding and managing the project timeline and result better. Sometime if is just PM role, the expectation of deliverables and schedule doesn’t make sense to business and tech team. Especially if the department is a small one and resource is limited, then a PM role will likely be doing more job title.

Go Team! What are the primary software used by project managers to communicate with the team?

@AdrianaGirdler Месяц назад

There isn't a specific or primary software used by project managers. Sometimes it will depend on the company and if they have implemented a program for them to use. I use a sharepoint site with my team. Check out this video, I think it may be of help to you ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-t28rU_3bIyA.html Thanks for watching, cheers!

Hi Adriana, Great Video. I have a question: I am currently stuck between doing my scrum master or project management certification. What is your opinion on this Thanks in advance

@AdrianaGirdler 2 года назад

Hi Oyewale…thanks for your question. Let me ask you, what industry do you work in? Knowing this will allow me to better answer your question. In the meantime, here is my general recommendation: Getting your PMP will always be a good thing, no matter the industry you work in. Plus the fundamentals apply to all PM methods, including agile. Getting your scrum master certification is great if you work in software and if your organization supports agile ways of working. Hope this helps you in making your decision. PS….one more option is you can do both. Do the scrum certification and take my practical project management course which will teach you the foundational items based on PMP frame work. This will give you the best of both worlds. Go to: www.AdrianaGirdler.com to check out the course. Cheers. 🙂

@AdrianaGirdler 4 года назад

Hi Albie....it’s a combo approach. The lessons are pre-recorded so you can take them at your own pace. I provide all the templates in downloads and have a live FaceBook group where you can ask question as they arise and I will coach you through it.

Hi, Leonardo. There aren’t specific degrees for project management but most employers require a degree of some sort. I have and engineering degree and go into project management by asking to be part of them then one I had experience asking to lead one.

We get the responsibilities of a PM but what site are they actually on warehouse, restaurant construction,.... Or is a project manager just a project manager and then they manages the project?

A project manager is a specific role....like a teacher, doctor, etc. Depending on the organization, they may have a dedicated role for a project manager...others may combine it with other activities. When I was doing engineering work, everything I did was a project but I was called an engineer. I hope this helps.
