Still not sure if you can become an effective project leader? Here are the questions that I'm often asked.
I don't have a college degree.
Fortunately, it isn't necessary. Project managers need leadership and technical skills, not specific degrees. With the right experience and training, it doesn't matter whether you went to college or what you studied.
My projects usually fail because of people!
That's true. Most projects fail because team members are not motivated to deliver their best, and higher managers are not supportive. This book will guide you through interpersonal skills that are important for project success.
What if I don't have any experience in project management?
This book will give you ideas for hands-on experience in your community that will help you get in the door. Plenty of companies offer entry-level positions where you can hone your skills, and you'll learn what companies are looking for when they hire a project manager.
Once you put the suggestions in this book into place, you'll join successful project managers all over the world in an exciting, fast-paced career. Not only that, but you can use these skills to benefit all aspects of your life.
