Overview

Spinning plates: A day in the life of a Project Manager

In this class, you're going to learn how to think like a world class Project Manager. You're going to learn how to keep your head above the water and how to stop spending all your time putting fires out!

This Project Management masterclass consists of 17 lessons designed to walk through the 'Spinning Plates: A day in the life of a Project Manager' model.  

This course is not about methodology.  It's about how to think every day as a Project Manager.  What to care about and how to make sure you're staying on top of everything you need, in order to deliver, in your day to day.

The spinning plates classes will give you the hints, tips and questions for you to be an exceptional Project Manager on any project.

Who am I?

My name is Matt and I'm a Software Projects Director, MAPM and a projects advocate.  I'm a full time PM in the life sciences business who also writes and coaches on Project Management, Leadership and Mindset.  After several years using the Spinning Plates model training both individuals, whole PMO's and just those wanting to know more about Project Management, I decided to create this course.   I hope you enjoy!
