In support of PMIEF’s global youth serving non-profit partnerships, PMI and PMIEF continue to highlight the exceptional student project managers from regions all across the world. Here a student shares his experiences with JA (Junior Achievement) Worldwide.
PMIEF’s student project manager series continues with a Q&A with Naomi Nordeen, a student project manager for her F1 in Schools North America team from Pennsylvania.
Project managers must be action oriented and task focused, and must build and train their project team to follow these principles. These PM fundamentals are good reminders on how to keep your project on track.
The concept of a minimum viable product is at the heart of agile, but it’s not something that everyone understands. When is "good enough" actually good enough?
With the ongoing global shortage of project professionals, PMs are being asked to manage two or more projects simultaneously earlier in their careers. How do you do that?
Does an agile team need a project manager? Should a scrum master be bossy? A practitioner in a software development project makes some observations as he adapts to a new way of working.
Many project managers start their careers with informal projects, which are managed without using any formal structure, approach or control. Is that an appropriate first step for a potential PM?
New research shows that organizations can motivate young project professionals by providing a transparent career path that enables personal growth and development—and demonstrates how projects act as motivators for them.
Deciding to take a PM course may not be an obvious choice for students—and may be a hard sell. Positioning project management as a way to learn about life skills can change the perception students may have—and set them up for success.
