The role of a project manager offers infinite possibilities across different industries and areas of work. But finding that next big step can be a bit difficult to navigate.

  • As you gain more knowledge throughout your years and experience, how do you define what will make you a great project manager?
  • Is it easily setting up and managing a project that you are comfortable with?
  • Is it moving from industry to industry?
  • Or is it moving to large projects with multiple variables?
  • How do you know what project management career path is best?

With all the different elements and possible opportunities available to project managers, it is helpful to have a clear resource with enough experience to guide you to your next step.
