I just realised I already do project management , but with video games. I get together a team usually 2 to 5 people. Then I work on something a few hours for up to one day to seven days . Remember the results , tweak my performance test the results on the next attempt and keep making adjustments until I have the desired results.

It’s been a year that I have been a project lead and I wished I had learned about this early on. I realize I have so much to learn. I didn’t know that project management was even a profession, I just thought it was a natural progression in the career to become a manager. Turns out it’s more than just experience in your chosen field, but management is really a different skill to master.
Management really is a skill that needs to be built upon by experience and lessons learned along the way. 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.

Hello mam This Is Venkat I too wanted to Learn Some New Skills From Who Had Immense Knowledge On Projects Like You...Hope To I Get Reply From Your End.
I was expecting the Project Manager to be different, you are basically managing people to work on a project, min 4 and on were more detailed, I appreciated that. Thank you.
There's a new position on my team for a PM, so thank you for posting these videos. I've been doing PM work my entire career, but my title has never been PM. I'm going to watch all of your videos to make sure I have a standing chance to interview against current PMs, people with PM certifications, etc.
Hi Felicia! First I would like to thank you for watching. I hope that my content will be helpful to you as you continue to grow in your career. I have a video on Project Manager Interview questions and answers. I will leave the link below. I also have a free webinar (I will put that link below) that I think will really help you prepare as well.

I am a month into a new project manager roll and even though my past jobs contained elements of project management, this is my first solely manager position. This week I am learning fairly quickly that I need to alter my communication structure with managers and sometimes it is like drawing blood from a stone in terms of replies to my questions.
Congratulations on your new role! Seeing that you need to make some changes is your first step toward the win! Wishing you all the best and great success with your current project. Cheers!
Transitioning to a dedicated project manager role comes with its unique challenges, especially in communication. Persistence and adaptability are key-consider adjusting your approach to suit different managerial styles, and don't hesitate to follow up strategically to ensure responses. Building strong rapport and clarity in communication will enhance project efficiency over time. Keep up the proactive effort!
fantastic, I have gained the question of the interest and these are why some project fail, others succeed, what manager do, how they do it, when they do it, why they do it, what they do, and what special qualities and special skills they need to have and how such vital for the project manager's duties and responsibilities
This video was helpful to me. I really like the idea of getting updates from your team and using those to provide an update to the client. I was a "Company Computer Guy" for 20 years but started working as a Project Manager 6 months ago. Sometimes I still feel like I don't exactly know what I should be doing with my time but these were some great pointers. Thanks!

Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge about PM. I have just been volunteered to be PM to move equipment and processes from on plant to another and shut one down when the move is complete. This is new to me. I will be successful.
Woow!! .. it accelerate my vibration to deliver knowledge to the team and create the work atmosphere around my work place and secure project circumstances. Huge thanks Adriana!
I still don’t understand. A project manager for what type of job? I kind of understand the material covered from a military leadership perspective. But how do you fit my set of skill sets (included everything that you covered) into the actual type of project in the civilian world. Can you provide a video breaking it “Barney style”. For example, “Joe is a going to build his resume, interview and accept a job as a project manager dealing with landscaping (this area can be changed), but he provided his 5 year experience as a landscaper to now accept the task of recruiting landscapers, assigning their tasks, assessing their performance as well as understanding the future landscaping projects, getting his higher ups at ease by letting them know that you know what you are doing. Then providing them with updates on the progress of the projects, etc…” this could be applied into any other type of areas as a project to manage, right?
That's fantastic Nando! So happy this content was helpful! Here is a link for a free download on how projects fail. I think this will be beneficial to you since your team is growing:) Congrats and thanks for watching, Cheers! www.cornerstonedynamics.com/why-projects-fail-cheat-sheet/
Hello Sir! I am from india and i am 20yrs old a marketing student wanted to change my line into a project management...If you can help me in any way please let me know!
I’m two mind now,I have to choose Project and Business management.I think everyone can’t be project manager because you must work with individuals satisfaction and motivated team members but it’s interesting job.
This is so useful! I am a PM who shift (somehow) into a doer/BA role. I am looking to tighten up my boundaries and be more effective at actually managing the project.
Guess it depends on the department u work what’s their expectation of a PM. Sometime they give a PM title but want more than a pure PM. I myself r PM title but also does BA/Product. Although u r not expected to be a SME on it but with those skills set, definitely helps with understanding and managing the project timeline and result better. Sometime if is just PM role, the expectation of deliverables and schedule doesn’t make sense to business and tech team. Especially if the department is a small one and resource is limited, then a PM role will likely be doing more job title.
Great video ! Got to know about the major roles of a Project Manager in an organization that helps them to run successful projects.Definitely, it will also help me to be a good leader or manager in my career in project management. Also, some of these responsibilities are very useful in our day-to-day life. It is very helpful for me and others to watch such videos of yours to gain more knowledge about project management or other programs. Thank You !!!
Really inspiring video. Thanks Adriana .. It was never about the scope,salary in these roles for me but the natural approach towards this skills i had like communicating with people , solving problems and managing schedules

Hi Adriana, Your video is very informative and helpful and i really appreciate your effort. You mentioned crucial pillars in the project manager's role.
I have been an elementary/middle school teacher for 22 years. I am always keeping my eyes and ears open to a career change. I have heard people say that teachers often make good PMs. I was doing a little research which led me to your channel. This is the first video I watched, but I'm excited to view more of your channel. Advice or thoughts about teachers moving to this field?

I am happy to hear you are enjoying your program. The time spent onsite will vary depending on the project and any hiccups that may happen along the way. As far as how many hours worked in a week, it’s like any other job. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Good content, I personally would never ask for a deadline on noon Friday, make it Thursday, this way you allow time to compensate if things haven't been done to the correct standard.
Hi there, I think an awesome video for a new young PM is how to become an effective communicator. I talk to my buddies still in school about being an assistant PM and a big thing that comes up is the amount of communication that I do. I am fine with it but I know a lot of people especially in engineering school are standoffish towards idea of communicating a lot with random people and don't know where to start. Thanks for your time and great video!
Thanks so much, Dan. Communication is so very important not just as a PM but in business as a whole. Happy to hear you are guiding your friends on the importance of effective communication:) Thanks for watching, cheers!

I arranged a picnic in our community a month ago. Without any prior experience, i made plans. I managed everything well. I gave responsibilities to right people and managed everyone well. I am thinking about project managements now😂
Hey Adriana! I have been teaching for 6 years and I am looking to make a career change and project management sparked my interest. Do you think that my teaching skills would transfer well to this career? What advice would you have for getting started? What certifications would you suggest? Thank you for your time and I will be checking out more of your videos.
Hi Lekeatra. Your skills would definitely transfer well into a Project Management career. Here is a video that will answer all of your questions. Wishing you all the best. Cheers! ruclips.net/video/2zp-yMTk69A/видео.html
Do project managers communicate with customers? Im looking for a job where I can work from home and have little interaction with customers. Anything apart from accounting?
Great question, Tom! It depends on what industry you are in. For most of the projects I manage, a majority of the work is in the office with site visits in some cases. If you are looking for an intro to project management, I do have a short webinar on the basic five things that all project managers MUST do on every project - this will give you an idea of the office work that is required.

Hello, I am interested in making a career change into project management. Do you have any advice on how to start and what certifications I should obtain?

Go team! In my project the client is constantly trying to hurt himself (metaphorically) we ready know best practices but they have this illusion speeding things up by jumping hoops that we know is going to bite them later on. It has been a bit frustrating.
That’s definitely sounds frustrating. I wish you great success for this project even though it sounds like you have some hurdles to overcome. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
@@AdrianaGirdler Thanks!!! I guess I need to work on my communication skill to make them understand why is wrong and why is better for them on the long run to do it right. Although it feels like I shouldn't have to explain why doing things right is the right way hahaha. we have a procedure already in place just follow it haha. but that's what you get when you work with humans, especially the ones that feel have power.
I just stumbled across your channel as I was trying to get clarification on creating VSMs for my Six Sigma course and now I'm hooked! I'm in the beginning courses of my Bachelor's in Project Management so I'll stick around for a little while!
Thank you so much! Are you interested in project management or are you already filling a role that aligns with project management? I would love to hear! Thanks for watching, cheers!
Hi Adriana, Great Video. I have a question: I am currently stuck between doing my scrum master or project management certification. What is your opinion on this Thanks in advance
Hi Oyewale…thanks for your question. Let me ask you, what industry do you work in? Knowing this will allow me to better answer your question. In the meantime, here is my general recommendation: Getting your PMP will always be a good thing, no matter the industry you work in. Plus the fundamentals apply to all PM methods, including agile. Getting your scrum master certification is great if you work in software and if your organization supports agile ways of working. Hope this helps you in making your decision. PS….one more option is you can do both. Do the scrum certification and take my practical project management course which will teach you the foundational items based on PMP frame work. This will give you the best of both worlds. Go to: www.AdrianaGirdler.com to check out the course. Cheers. 🙂
There isn't a specific or primary software used by project managers. Sometimes it will depend on the company and if they have implemented a program for them to use. I use a sharepoint site with my team. Check out this video, I think it may be of help to you ruclips.net/video/t28rU_3bIyA/видео.html Thanks for watching, cheers!

Thanks, I'm glad I found you.

I can already tell I'll be leaning on your content to help with managing the project!

I had no idea what PMs do so I really appreciate this vid
I am really happy to hear that this video provided you with the information to learn what a PM does. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Thank you for creating this video. I’m ready for a career change and this helped provide guidance.
Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge about PM. I have just been volunteered to be PM to move equipment and processes from on plant to another and shut one down when the move is complete. This is new to me. I will be successful.
Congratulations. Wishing you great success! Cheers!
I was never 100% sure what the role of a Project Manager was, this was a great explanation on what a project manager does, thank you!
Thanks for watching. Glad that this video was helpful in explaining what project managers do. Cheers!

Fantastic! Love hearing excitement like this! Wishing you and your team great success. Thanks for watching, cheers.
I still don’t understand. A project manager for what type of job? I kind of understand the material covered from a military leadership perspective. But how do you fit my set of skill sets (included everything that you covered) into the actual type of project in the civilian world. Can you provide a video breaking it “Barney style”. For example, “Joe is a going to build his resume, interview and accept a job as a project manager dealing with landscaping (this area can be changed), but he provided his 5 year experience as a landscaper to now accept the task of recruiting landscapers, assigning their tasks, assessing their performance as well as understanding the future landscaping projects, getting his higher ups at ease by letting them know that you know what you are doing. Then providing them with updates on the progress of the projects, etc…” this could be applied into any other type of areas as a project to manage, right?
Just barely got into the video, and she’s diving right to point. Love it keep it up, very useful information 💯
Thank you so much! Happy that you found this video helpful and to the point. Cheers!
Go team! I’m actually growing my team now so this is great content at the right time! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
That's fantastic Nando! So happy this content was helpful! Here is a link for a free download on how projects fail. I think this will be beneficial to you since your team is growing:) Congrats and thanks for watching, Cheers!

Hello Sir! I am from india and i am 20yrs old a marketing student wanted to change my line into a project management...If you can help me in any way please let me know!
I’m two mind now,I have to choose Project and Business management.I think everyone can’t be project manager because you must work with individuals satisfaction and motivated team members but it’s interesting job.
Wishing you all the best on making the choice and thanks for watching, cheers!
This is so useful! I am a PM who shift (somehow) into a doer/BA role. I am looking to tighten up my boundaries and be more effective at actually managing the project.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for watching, cheers!
Guess it depends on the department u work what’s their expectation of a PM. Sometime they give a PM title but want more than a pure PM. I myself r PM title but also does BA/Product. Although u r not expected to be a SME on it but with those skills set, definitely helps with understanding and managing the project timeline and result better. Sometime if is just PM role, the expectation of deliverables and schedule doesn’t make sense to business and tech team. Especially if the department is a small one and resource is limited, then a PM role will likely be doing more job title.
Thank you., Great Data on The Role of the Project manager, I am taking this course., very well, I admire your delivery. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾♾👑💯
Thank you so very much! Wishing all the best and great success. Cheers!

Good content, I personally would never ask for a deadline on noon Friday, make it Thursday, this way you allow time to compensate if things haven't been done to the correct standard.
Hi Dave thanks for watching and fantastic suggestion. Thanks for sharing and watching, cheers!
Hi there, I think an awesome video for a new young PM is how to become an effective communicator. I talk to my buddies still in school about being an assistant PM and a big thing that comes up is the amount of communication that I do. I am fine with it but I know a lot of people especially in engineering school are standoffish towards idea of communicating a lot with random people and don't know where to start. Thanks for your time and great video!
Thanks so much, Dan. Communication is so very important not just as a PM but in business as a whole. Happy to hear you are guiding your friends on the importance of effective communication:) Thanks for watching, cheers!
Enjoyed the video. Very interesting and helpful
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching, cheers!

Do project managers communicate with customers?
Im looking for a job where I can work from home and have little interaction with customers. Anything apart from accounting?
As a project manager you will be interacting continually with your team and outside suppliers as required. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Great advice ❤🙌🏻
Thank you, and thanks for watching, cheers!
Hi am thinking of doing a apprenticeship in project management. One Question does project management an office job or do you go on site to?thanks
Great question, Tom! It depends on what industry you are in. For most of the projects I manage, a majority of the work is in the office with site visits in some cases. If you are looking for an intro to project management, I do have a short webinar on the basic five things that all project managers MUST do on every project - this will give you an idea of the office work that is required.

Good briefing! Happy seeing ,,,,,,,,,
Thank you very much, and thanks for watching, cheers!
Go team! In my project the client is constantly trying to hurt himself (metaphorically) we ready know best practices but they have this illusion speeding things up by jumping hoops that we know is going to bite them later on. It has been a bit frustrating.
That’s definitely sounds frustrating. I wish you great success for this project even though it sounds like you have some hurdles to overcome. Thanks for watching! Cheers!
@@AdrianaGirdler Thanks!!! I guess I need to work on my communication skill to make them understand why is wrong and why is better for them on the long run to do it right. Although it feels like I shouldn't have to explain why doing things right is the right way hahaha. we have a procedure already in place just follow it haha. but that's what you get when you work with humans, especially the ones that feel have power.
Thanks for explaining the role of the project manager! Great vid.
Thanks for watching. Hope this information was helpful in understanding the role of a project manager. Cheers!
I just stumbled across your channel as I was trying to get clarification on creating VSMs for my Six Sigma course and now I'm hooked! I'm in the beginning courses of my Bachelor's in Project Management so I'll stick around for a little while!
Fantastic! Wishing you all the best. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Thank you! Great video!

Hi Adriana,
Great Video.
I have a question: I am currently stuck between doing my scrum master or project management certification.
What is your opinion on this
Thanks in advance
Hi Oyewale…thanks for your question. Let me ask you, what industry do you work in? Knowing this will allow me to better answer your question. In the meantime, here is my general recommendation:
Getting your PMP will always be a good thing, no matter the industry you work in. Plus the fundamentals apply to all PM methods, including agile.
Getting your scrum master certification is great if you work in software and if your organization supports agile ways of working.
Hope this helps you in making your decision.
PS….one more option is you can do both. Do the scrum certification and take my practical project management course which will teach you the foundational items based on PMP frame work. This will give you the best of both worlds. Go to: www.AdrianaGirdler.com to check out the course. Cheers. 🙂
Go Team !
Thank you, this was helpful. Still trying to figure out what career I want to follow.
So glad this was helpful and wishing you all the best as you search for the right career for you. Cheers!
Is this a good fit for former teachers? Seems like a major part of my teaching career is project management but with kiddos.
Hi Jessica, absolutely. Check out my latest video, the Pros and Cons of a project management career. Thanks for watching, cheers!
Great video! I remember when I worked in corporate recruiting I got this question a lot :D Very helpful!
Anna, it's a question I have been asked on numerous occasions as well. Thanks for the great feedback and for watching, Cheers!
Go Team! What are the primary software used by project managers to communicate with the team?
There isn't a specific or primary software used by project managers. Sometimes it will depend on the company and if they have implemented a program for them to use. I use a sharepoint site with my team. Check out this video, I think it may be of help to you ruclips.net/video/t28rU_3bIyA/видео.html
Thanks for watching, cheers!
Very good information ❤
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching, cheers!
