6 things to help LEARN Project Management

Hey, Folks -

I remember becoming so overwhelmed when I first started trying to learn project management. I didn’t have a mentor to help guide me along the path when I was first getting started, so I created this video to guide you through learning any knowledge based skill. Learning Project Management doesn’t have to be hard! That’s why I shared 6 things I wish I knew when I was learning Project Management:

1. PMBOK is a reference tool

2. Figure out your learning style

3. You're going to be drinking from the fire hydrant

4. You won't learn new skills if you don't put in the time

5. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.

6. Learn the 90/10 rule

I hope this mindset helps guide you through your learning journey. If you enjoyed this content, please check out the next video in this series that walks you through all 49 Project Management Institute processes in the order you’ll encounter them in an ideal project. We cover all five of the process groups - Initiation, Planning, Executing, Monitoring and Controlling, and Closing - within the video.

Thanks for showing up today. Your future self will thank you.
