This was one of the hardest areas to get across, to fellow mgrs in my PMP classes. People like to work with leaders who LISTEN, and not just dictate. I ran three projects, with a listening and encouraging attitude and got more done. Two out of the 3 projects, went on to become examples for the school and promoting future students. And 2 of our side projects was purchased by outside interest and that went Gold. It really isn't about me, it's about them. Thank you
Your approach to leadership, emphasizing listening and encouragement, is commendable and clearly yielded impressive results. Creating an environment where team members feel heard and valued fosters collaboration and innovation, leading to successful project outcomes. Your humility in recognizing the contributions of others underscores the essence of effective leadership
So its basically a team work, should not be the one who just loses temper at critical situation cause that'll turn teammate's hatred onto us, and should always be a good inspirational speaker cause that'll boost everyone's confidence.(Didnt have my notebook to write, so here u go).. Thanks Adriana... PROJECT MANAGEMENT ROCKS!
Hey Vladimir, how exciting that you're starting your role as a Project Manager! I'm glad this video helped give you the tips you need to start your role successfully. Best wishes in your new job as a PM and I hope my videos help you find answers to any additional project management questions you may have in the future. Cheers!
I am going to school to become a PM and this video has got me even more excited to be getting a degree to become one! Thank you so much! PROJECT MANAGEMENT ROCKS!
Project Management Rocks! What great advice and equally engaging! You’ve inspired me and I’m not even working on your project! LOL Ready to get into the project management profession. Excited to start my deep dive!
This is the first video of yours that I watched after searching PM. I immediately "liked" and subscribed. Thank you for the great content. I look forward to watching more of your videos.
Such great tips, Adriana, thanks so much for sharing! I absolutely love your positive energy and authenticity in this video :) Your presence on camera is fantastic! As for the project management tips - I agree that motivating, inspiring, and listening to what your team has to say are all crucial points that every great project manager has to pay attention to.
Thank you so much for the compliment, Simona! Being an inspiring project manager truly makes a different to the project and the team. Glad you liked this video! Cheers!
Your video was amazing! Thank you for making me excited about the field. I am currently in some courses to get my PMP and the teacher isn't very helpful. This really gave me the boost I needed to feel excited and motivated to keep learning, read more books about motivation and just give me hope. I feel in my core I would be a good PM. Thank you more than words can express.
I am so happy that this video was what you needed to get you excited and motivated. I am sorry your teacher isn't very helpful, but know there are great resources out there to help you. You will really enjoy being a PM. You've got this! Best of luck! Cheers!
I am so happy to hear these tips will be of help. I do have a 45 min webinar that I think will benefit you. In this free training I walk you through the five key items needed on all projects, it's what I call the FAB FIVE FUNDAMENTALS OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT. The FAB FIVE are the 5 key items that you must do on every project - if you only do 5 things, these are them! It’s a great way to simplify projects, while still doing the essentials needed to ensure project success.

Agree with all you stated. I would add bring a calming voice and a everything is "figure-out-able" mentality. 2nd I would say to call out anyone who goes above and beyond their call of duty. Document achievements weekly and encourage the team to contribute to that document (like a google doc). Both internal and external kudos.
Absolutely, maintaining a calm demeanor and fostering a "can-do" attitude are invaluable traits in leadership. Recognizing and celebrating team members' efforts not only boosts morale but also reinforces a culture of appreciation and collaboration. Implementing a system for documenting and acknowledging achievements enhances team cohesion and motivation. Your insights highlight proactive strategies for cultivating a positive and high-performing team environment.
Interesting. I have developed these skills in my profession by default. I've been accused of being diplomatic and have a knac for motivating people and making any team feel like family/friends. I have an interview scheduled for a project manager position now i feel more confident. Thank you.

That's a great video. Also, if I may add, when I'm comunicating something specific like "The gate opens at 11 am" I say not just the same information but with other information together like "who's avaible at 10:30? Beacuse The gate opens at 11 am" Or "Remember, nobody comes in before 11am why? Thats the time the gate opens" and so on.
These are great tips for your first project at work! I love that you pointed out the importance of not being a know-it-all because with something like project management you really learn with experience.
Yes, and we all learn something new every day, no matter how long we've been doing it! Have you ever had to deal with someone who acted like a know-it-all?
Hi Scott, thanks for your comment. I think that anyone with a designation can seem to be a know it all. However, getting a designation brings excitement for many as it is an great accomplishment. Finding a mentor is a great way to see if you really want to put the work in required to attain a designation. Thanks for watching, cheers!
So I’ve been a tech for a home energy company and I was THE guy. Then the company fell we got laid off and the original project manager referred me to another company and now I’m working as a project manager.

This was one of the hardest areas to get across, to fellow mgrs in my PMP classes. People like to work with leaders who LISTEN, and not just dictate. I ran three projects, with a listening and encouraging attitude and got more done. Two out of the 3 projects, went on to become examples for the school and promoting future students. And 2 of our side projects was purchased by outside interest and that went Gold. It really isn't about me, it's about them. Thank you

Thank you for this video. You provided essential components required for my new career. Project Management ROCKS🙌🏽🙌🏽
Hey there! I'm so glad this video was helpful for you to start your Project Management career off on the right foot. Best of luck! Cheers!
Great video ! very informational and easy to follow. thanks for taking the time.
Thanks for watching, cheers!
That's a great video. Also, if I may add, when I'm comunicating something specific like "The gate opens at 11 am" I say not just the same information but with other information together like "who's avaible at 10:30? Beacuse The gate opens at 11 am" Or "Remember, nobody comes in before 11am why? Thats the time the gate opens" and so on.
Thanks Gabriela, and thank you for sharing. Cheers!
These are great tips for your first project at work! I love that you pointed out the importance of not being a know-it-all because with something like project management you really learn with experience.
Yes, and we all learn something new every day, no matter how long we've been doing it! Have you ever had to deal with someone who acted like a know-it-all?
@@AdrianaGirdler Yes!! It's no fun!
@@laurendempsey9644 Not at all!
Yes that was a fun and silly addition. Thanks for the vid
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Great video. Only one thought. People get the PMP and then become a know it all. Honestly, I recommend a mentor before jumping into certs.
Hi Scott, thanks for your comment. I think that anyone with a designation can seem to be a know it all. However, getting a designation brings excitement for many as it is an great accomplishment. Finding a mentor is a great way to see if you really want to put the work in required to attain a designation. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Project management rocks!
Whoo hoo! It sure does 😊 Thanks for watching, cheers!
really enjoyed this video! Thank you Adriana
Thanks, Ortal! Have you ever been part of a project?

Love it Adriana! I want a trophy like that one.
Thanks, Heather! Cheers!
So I’ve been a tech for a home energy company and I was THE guy. Then the company fell we got laid off and the original project manager referred me to another company and now I’m working as a project manager. Never been a manager and things like that so I have a huge learning curve. But I almost feel as if I need to start this place from the ground up and it’s just brutal.

I am not at all trying to be a know it all, but please note when discussing groups of people (like how teams work with each other) it’s sociology. Individual work is psychology. Thank you though… great video!

One of the most awesome ideas! Emmet rocks😄 and what is crucial too, we need to earn the authority and to make people want following us. SO, +1 to psychology

Interning is a fantastic way to get on the job experience. If you have an opportunity to do that I would go for it. Thanks for watching and wishing you much success. Cheers!
