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.

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.

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.

Thanks for watching! I"m often asked" what does a project manager do?" Now that you know, were you surprised by the role of the project manager? Cheers!

Applyed for conception job, got hired as a PM 😱 Fresh out of school. I'm kinda hyped to be honest 🤓

I m doing master in computer science and i have project management as one subject so can i take it as future career!! 🤔

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!

I'm still in high school figuring out what I want to do but this looks really cool

Amazed with how helpful this was! Thanks for answering the question, "what does a project manager do?" So important to understand the role of the PM before you step into it.

Great video explaining what a project manager does. Very smart tip about setting out strict rules for project updates with the team right at the start of the project...get everyone on board and going in the right direction from the start.

I am currently attending a university and going for my bachelors in PM. I have enjoyed your insight and the positivity you show.

I was expecting the Project Manager to be different, you are basically managing people to work on a project, min 4 and on were more detailed, I appreciated that. Thank you.

Thanks so much for sharing! Organization is key. I worked with project managers who we so unorganized they had no idea who was doing what and what needed to be done. It's extremely stressful for the whole team.

HI Adriana, I have an interview this week for a PM role and I am sooo grateful for your videos! Thank you!

Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge about PM. I have just been volunteered to be PM to move equipment and processes from on plant to another and shut one down when the move is complete. This is new to me. I will be successful.

The amount of positive happy energy you threw at me. Thank you!

Great video ! Got to know about the major roles of a Project Manager in an organization that helps them to run successful projects.Definitely, it will also help me to be a good leader or manager in my career in project management. Also, some of these responsibilities are very useful in our day-to-day life. It is very helpful for me and others to watch such videos of yours to gain more knowledge about project management or other programs. Thank You !!!

Thank you for creating this video. I’m ready for a career change and this helped provide guidance.
