2009 Spring
Session Completed
George Balana, PMP, Associate
Director SCP
February 23, 2009 was the starting point for the sixth
SCP program, with a strong number of mentor / mentee pairs
very excited for the journey to come ahead.
The PM role throws us many challenges,
many to be resolved in real time. Project Management best
practices advise that at the top of your list, when preparing
for a project or dealing with risks, is to address senior PMs,
for their wealth of knowledge and vast experience. But what if
those senior PMs are not available for you when you need them,
or even worse, the Senior PM is your direct boss ? You don't
want to show you don't know how to solve the problem in the
best possible way, yet the path to getting there is still
ambiguous.
Solution? Get enrolled in our Situational Coaching Program
NOW.
