Project Management Basics - Part 2 [THE ULTIMATE STARTER PACK]

[@katrinap.1040]

It would be really great if you could do a “Day in the Life” video of you working as a project manager just to give us an idea what it’s like in real time. Love your videos by the way! Super helpful. I’m considering changing careers, project management seems like it may be a good fit for me.

[@pitolinmotion]

Hiya lovely :) I’ve had so many suggestions to do this! So I defo will, it’s just that I’m currently working from home mainly, (and currently moving) so there isn’t much for me to show really. I will get to it soon though. And thanks hun 🤗 I’m sure it will be a great match for you

[@papiichuu2349]

Did you ever make a video of “Day in the Life of a PM”

[@pitolinmotion]

Day in a life video! Is finally out yall! Enjoy :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJ6nqomphqqmaZIsi=LWeaPIS0a6qRl90D

[@yuxianli3756]

I don't often comment on tool/course videos, but I really appreciate you taking the time to make these high-quality videos, clearly and professionally explaining the basis of PM and making dry content fun to watch. This is very helpful. Thank you!

[@pitolinmotion]

Thank you!!!!!! Project management can be interesting at times 😅😅😅

[@theehizojiefirm6542]

Please make a separate video in RAID and project documents. Great videos and very straightforward and helpful

Hey it’s on the list of videos to make :) and thank you

[@greenasgxld9503]

I decided to embark on a career in PM after I graduate and I’ve just been offered a role as a Project Officer! These videos are so helpful, thank you!

[@pitolinmotion]

Amazing! Congrats on your new role 🎉 and thanks !

[@abrahamayabam3381]

Amazing video. I am currently studying for a masters in IT Project Management in the UK and must say I found this extremely useful and insightful. I have spent over 2 hours watching your videos and eagerly look forward to more. It is a career change for me after 15 years of working in the banking profession but I am willing to learn and committed to seeing it through. I am patient person, exhibit great leadership skills (proven from a lot of feedback) and manage time well too. I know I'll be fine but need a mentor to guide me properly as I feel I am getting in at an advanced stage of my life. A lot of people may watch and not drop a comment but it does not mean you are not reaching out. Please keep up the good work and don't stop as you are impacting so many lives. Best regards

[@pitolinmotion]

Hey, sounds like you are super determined and have everything you need to be successful. I say just keep going and trust the process! And thank you. I’ll keep doing what I do :)

[@TwoMarshmallows1]

Thank you so much for this two-part introduction. It is perfect. I'm learning about project management for my own business (and hobbies), and your videos were the perfect starting point. You explained everything so clearly and there's so much here I can apply to my own situation. I also really love your clear enthusiasm and enjoyment of project management! You make it seem fun, all while being clear of exactly how much work is involved. I've liked and subscribed, and will definitely watch more of your work. Thank you again!

Have an interview for an assistant PM role coming up. Was honestly not particularly confident that I had the skills necessary to function were I to get the job before I found your vids, as I've been a banker for the past 17 years. Tremendously appreciate the organized and detailed information that you have provided. Confidence is now at (a conservative 🤣🤣🤣) 8 because the functions of a PM completely fits my personality and natural inclinations. Truly appreciate your content. Thanks so much!

[@pitolinmotion]

You have got this girl!!!!! A conservative 8 is a great start! And you can blag the other 2 . I’m so happy you’re feeling more at ease with the role now. All the best in your interview! Im routing for you x

[@Red-fg9qr]

So for the time frames, requirements, budget do you ask directly to your team: 1. What the project entails for them (what they need to do) 2. What they need ($ for tools etc, colab with which teams and deliverables) 3. How long (realistically) 4. What are the potential risks (technical) When I managed my team in my agency I always spoke to them asking exactly what they need and make the calendar that way, they’d tell me the deadlines that works for them (negotiating to keep it on track) and where could we need a little more time in case something happened (I.e. design developer feedback and changes before starting production of code). Is this right? I had an agency in Mexico but I moved to California as I got married, thinking on pursuing PM for the AI market as it’s growing by the day, but working in America is completely different (from a corporate structure point of view), looking for entry positions 😂 a step back but I think I can do it, especially with the help of automation to keep everyone in the loop of what’s happening.

[@pitolinmotion]

Hey yeah basically the same process Hope your pm transition in the US goes well!

Time Management is my top skill on this list even in my personal life! I always had alternative options in the back of my head and can estimate accurately how long something will take. I do if effortlessly and just shock myself each time. Some skills need to be developed of course but a career such as Project management, people need to pay attention to their natural skills and ability such as time management and I’m very organized. Not technical like Engineers but my mind knows how to put all the technical people together to paint a picture! I could do technical skills (example I can make websites) but I don’t have the patience it’s too tedious lmao.

Defo sounds like your skill set it more tuned for project management . Do you currently work as a project manager ?

Do you create the budget too? Or you work with someone in the finances department to estimate the cost?

[@pitolinmotion]

I create the budget then submit it for approval to finance (if internal) / to the client. If it’s too high and gets rejected then I can look for ways to cut the cost, but 9/10 that also means removing some items from the scope of work, reducing quality or increasing the time in which it takes to get the work done
