Ask the PMO Manager: Let's Talk Shop

Cost: $99 | Duration: 1 Hour | Format: Virtual Coffee Chat

Ever looked at a project plan and thought, “There has to be a better way”?
Or maybe you’re eyeing that next step in your career but aren’t sure what skills — or scars — actually matter.

Grab your favorite mug, because I’ve had my morning coffee (and my backup coffee), and I’m ready to talk shop.

This is an informal, no-judgment session designed for aspiring and seasoned project professionals who want real-world insight — not another textbook definition.

We’ll cover:

So You Want to Be a Project Manager?
How to build the right foundation — in the right order — and develop the skills that actually move you forward.

📜 Certifications: The Truth Behind the Hype
Which ones open doors, which ones collect dust, and how to choose the ones that align with your goals.

🧭 Real-World Advice
How to survive (and thrive) when projects get messy — from stakeholder wrangling to scope creep triage.

🏢 Inside the PMO
What it’s really like to work within a Project Management Office, how PMOs operate, and yes — a few trade secrets.

💬 Open Q&A
Submit your questions in advance or bring them live — no judgment, just practical advice (and probably a few sarcastic metaphors).

Materials: You will be provided with the following materials post session:

  • 30-Day “Experience Fast” Project Management Checklist

  • PMO Learning & Certifications Pathways: Building Skills for Today and Tomorrow

  • Project & Program Management Core Competencies Guide & Growth Plan

We’ll tackle as much as we can in one caffeine-fueled hour — because if there’s one thing I don’t waste, it’s time or espresso.
