This video is GOLD, thank you for sharing your knowledge 🙏🏽

[@leemilene]

Great video! I started as a PM last month and while PM wasn't on my first plans (actually, I intended to become a librarian because I have a graduation degree), I found myself thinking how Library Science and Project Management have a lot in common, especially when you said about making all the things go in the smooth way I'm trying to rediscovery myself in this role and I really like your content!

[@themaxmao]

thank you for sharing - it’s inspiring hearing your journey, goodluck!

[@dechenlama2863]

Thanks for the great content as always 😄

[@themaxmao]

thanks for the support!!

[@alejandrocastro211]

Would be nice a video about how to manage projects when you're yet alone as freelance

[@themaxmao]

great topic; noting for a future video!

[@antwill8283]

Great video dude! We use Cuppa for our project management tool and I think there's still a bit of refining we need to do to really polish off our workflow. Cheers for the tips.

[@themaxmao]

thanks for sharing!

what a relaxed high quality video

[@lulubee4826]

Many corporations are using the project manager as a Secretary Assisting teams. In fact many big companies converted Secretaries and named them Project Managers. And the most valuable skills are: 1. Schedule meetings 2. Take notes- scribe 3. No voice, no leadership, just following orders

[@TheMariemarie16]

That's not half of what a PM should be but I can totally see that happening. A good administration assistant is not a bad job, guess they just wanted to make the title sound more fancy or they are hopping on a bandwagon when they honestly had no real need for a true PM. I would take advantage of having that title to spring board to a real PM job with more pay and I would actually try to use and adopt some PM tools while in that role.

[@dineshkumar-nc6cw]

Really great video. It helps me learn about the importance of project management in the business. Thank you for uploading this video.

[@nasfsu]

Thanks for creating this video! I am working on creating tools to support my teams that manage projects but are not experienced project managers and this is a great intro to share with them.

Does Having a electrician estimator background help landing a project manager job ?

[@luthoxlwethu]

So what's the difference between that and a management consultant

[@themaxmao]

@@luthoxlwethu there is certainly overlap in skillset between the two. I’d say PMs are typically hired for a more specific role / project need. Management consultants are typically more broad generalists that can be staffed to tackle a wider range of business / operational needs (I.e. from financial modeling to M&As). This of course can vary depending on the job.

[@klohr311]

Basically upper mgmt and micro managed people..lol

[@IroquoisPliskin6789]

Micromanagement is doing the job for the team member. Managing is leading the team to the objective.

[@Franchize_OooWEEE]

Thanks for the video. It was so calm and relaxing. I'm subscribing just of the strength that you made the content to explain being a PM to its simplistic form. There is so much ups and downs, smiles and frowns when it comes to being a PM. However, as kings and queens it should never detour us from dropping our crowns! Thanks King for providing valuable content. God Bless You!

[@themaxmao]

@@Franchize_OooWEEE Thanks so much!! God bless

[@mcgwiretuffy25246]

Hey man! I am in my last year of grad school and I am very interested in getting into project management. I don't have any work or internship experience because I was a college athlete. Do you have any advice on where to start and if you know of any specific companies that offer internship programs. I appreciate it so much!

[@themaxmao]

Hey McGwire - I recommend starting with your school & reaching out to any resources you have there first. Then, start thinking about what industries you have interest in. Finally, just keeping applying. Goodluck with your last year of grad school!
