An article by the PM Times written by Mike Morton (2007), discusses what senior managers ask "How do I know who is a good project manager".

Read the article for a full understanding. https://www.projecttimes.com/articles/brin...oject-managers/

The article entails the prospect of a guild system which the writer describes as an ancient but revered that uses the apprentice, journeyman, and master hierarchy to gradually make sure a professional is of sufficient quality and skill to be unleashed on mankind.

The process would include setting up the Project Management Office as a center of excellence and having project managers go through an apprenticeship program before they’re given unsupervised responsibility for projects. Moreover, it is something that can be adopted in mid-size to large scale organizations.

What are yall thoughts on something such as this?
Would it be something that would be relevant and be of value to those in the project management profession?
