Taking Our Project Management Careers to the Next Level
The project management field out there is pretty crowded out there. Its no longer enough to be just really good at what you do. You have to be more. It’s no longer build it on time, on scope and budget. You have to add value over and above the normal requirements of project managers.
So how do we add value? How do we stand out in the crowd? How do we get recognized in this very crowded field?
Our speaker will get us thinking about what we can do to innovate our careers and get to the next level.
Key Learning points
- What is our industry looking for in a project manager these days?
- How can we stand up and be recognized in a crowded field?
- What do I need to do to ensure career success as a project manager?

- Always a pleasure to listen to the no-nonsense and directly applicable ideas and attitudes.
- David is one of my favorite public speakers. David chose a very relevant topic, and the way he presented this topic made me feel proud of being a Project Manager. Great advice to strategically plan my career and other aspects of my life, really helps the thinking process and putting things in perspective.
- Great speaking points and take aways. Also, a great speaker overall. Thanks David!
- Liked the juxtaposition of startup vs large corp timeline comparison
- Timely topic and one I know I should use more though often neglect to do so. Great reminder and good tips.

As, during the resent years, project management discipline took a step toward more flexible and dynamic project management methodologies, in addition to the traditional waterfall approach, several new emerging methodologies became in high demand. Thus, training and credentialing in these methodologies became highly sough after among Project Management professionals. It is especially relevant in today's economic climate.
