Great Video Emma! I love being a program manager. There is nothing like putting together the portfolio budget proposal to an organization and them coming back to you saying you are 50 percent over what they budgeted!! :)

Emma, this is the second video I watched from your channel content. Absolutely valuable, thanks. I've been a program manager for over four years now. Currently, I run a merger and acquisitions program for a multi-national. I currently have 11 projects in-flight, with about 30% coming to an end as new ones come into the pipeline. It is a wonderful career area in the whole project management universe. Edited to add: I think the PMI pricing strategy is their understanding that the PgMP is a certification for particularly senior PM professionals who, for the most part, have all, or a large part, of the test cost subsidized by their enterprise. Generally, one does not sit for the PgMP unless one is filling that role.

I wish I had this video a few months ago. The differenced between project and program managers came up on my CAPM and this video would have made it really clear with your architecture/ contractor example.
@RecipeforSuccess12 жыл бұрын
Oh gosh! Glad you thought it was helpful - also interesting to note that it came up on the CAPM. I think PMI really focuses on the difference in scope (think managing multiple projects in a portfolio as opposed to a single project with one goal/outcome).

Project Manager -108k……Program Manager 126k…..Engineering Manager 150k That’s been the range in my personal trajectory the last 10 yrs (California). I’m young, so in time I should bring more I hope. No PMP, just Bachelors in Business (Project Management) and heavy electrical engineering background

Great video! I'm PMP certified and am planning on taking the PgMP certification in February next year. I passed the PgMP panel review earlier this month. The panel review took approximately 45 days before I was approved to take the exam. Eagerly looking forward to taking it!

Absolutely! I'd focus on getting more complex asks - setting up an event, thinking through how to execute on an idea or goal easily and clearly! Good luck!

Isn't a project manager responsible for planning too? Like in the example of architect you gave; aren't project managers responsible for making the blueprint AND following it through execution?
@RecipeforSuccess12 жыл бұрын
Hi Baseem - yes, but on a much smaller scale. It could be the difference between the architect and the contractor (the contractor still has a plan that needs execution but the overall vision and level is different). I hope that makes sense! I'm also open to your thoughts on the matter!
@baseemahmed83922 жыл бұрын
@@RecipeforSuccess1 i understand the vision part. Ok, so the way I see it is: A project manager would do all the planning like creating project proposal, budget estimations and all that. Then move on to the executing it. While program managers are around to manage multiple project managers themselves as opposed to managing the project. Other possible way I look at program managers is that they handle multiple projects, like everything from planning to initiating to executing to closing. But there's no project manager for those projects. Makes sense? Sounds flawed?

Theres no chance of becoming a Program manager without being a project manager first. No company will ever hire someone in this role without the required experience.

So, first of all, I'm neither a PMP or PgMP. However I'm PRINCE2 Practitioner certified, along with CSM and CSPO. I have recently been moved from Project to Program Management and got a 69% raise. I'm interested in doing the PgMP as opposed to PMP (I'm not interested in Project Management anymore). I have the years of experience required (8) BUT my University degree is a standard (UK) 3 years, however I am in my 1st year (of 2) of my MBA from a very reputable UK University. I'm a bit confused as to whether I'd get accepted.. or should I not even bother
