Thank you sir. Precise and crisp.

Ciao Stuart, thanks a lot for your inspiring and educational videos! I would also say that I find very interesting this new series where you show us the approach for successful projects used by impacting people. Just one note: I am pretty sure you've used a wrong copy/paste at minute 3:27, where the same quotation used in the Communication lesson has ben also displayed in the Resilience lesson. Thank you again and greetings form Italy!

You would honestly think that any change should have a positive vision, or do we actually create things to make our lives more difficult (no need to answer that).

Thank you for the video! I’m studying PRINCE2 right now because for the past year I’ve not been able to get a job after being made redundant (I strongly suspect after speaking with recruiters, HR people, immigration solicitors, and past colleagues, that my need for a visa sponsorship plays a heavy role in my case). I’ve been in technical project leadership in the consumer- and pro-electronics industry for the past 4.5 years before I was made redundant. Prior to that, I was the manager of an electronics design team for about 8 years, after I had been a pure engineer for 4 years. So a total of about 18 years in my career. My question for you is: Do you think that it’s because you have a (albeit outdated) PRINCE2 certification on your CV, you’ve been able to land jobs even after it has expired? Or, do you think that you’d still be able to land your current type of roles had you not had the certification but was promoted/transferred into a leadership / project management position? Thank you very much.

Winston Churchill. How gross 🤮 He encouraged and condoned the starvation of millions...

These lessons resonate all! Personally, first principle thinking.... besides content, allow me to share: also love the green plant and crisp shirt🙂

It might open the doors for a junior role, but nothing beats real experience. You have to be amble to communicate with doers and stakeholders and drive those who dont want to be driven

I would love to get certified with Prosci however, in the us almost 5k which not ideal when unemployed. I did receive change management specialist cert so far.

Thank you❤

Great video! Musk's approach to business management is truly impressive. As project managers, though, we often don't have the same level of control over every aspect of our projects-clients, stakeholders, and customers tend to shape our path. If I had the freedom Elon has, I would definitely implement his strategies. On a side note, as a fan of his cars I bought one! 😄

Thank you! The video helps us to figure out how we can integrate AI into our dailys working life.

Prince 2, go to hell

Dystopian dystopia. Zero personality, zero charisma, zero gravitas, zero ability . Garbage 🗑️

Horrible horrible people enter the workplace via this nefarious apprentice scheme. Try a Degree , an academic degree , and speaking an excellent standard of English. Develop academic skills , to be capable .

Nice level of detail and overview with key conversation on what tool to use to create/manage Gantt for your project and team.

I agree with others, all 3. I like the way you did the video. Deserves a like for just that alone :)

Very good.

Excellent content 🎉

All three🎉

IMHO. All three plus a dodgy communications plan. The client's requirements were clear as were the consequences of missing milestones. The Planning issue appears to be the PM did not lock down required resources prior to commencement. The clear risk of delay, in addition to the delays already endured, was linked directly to the availability of bespoke services from a single provider. Having a single provider for such a significant project in itself should have sent alarm bells. The PM also seems to have a frosty relationship with the client, a well-executed communications plan would assist in developing a cooperative relationship with them and quite possibly temper stringent requirements such as minor extensions etc, it's not a guarantee but it helps. I hope the PM survived the ordeal and became a wiser more effective one. I loved the video, nice one, keep them coming.

Assumption! It makes an Ass-of-U & Mption.

Thank you so much for this video. I found myself in a very similar situation and, in March of 2024, walked away from my job and Project Management without a backup plan. It was an awful experience and I still struggle every day with the anger and the pain. It's worse because my spouse still works at the organization so I am not able to make a clean break. I have some amazing accomplishments in my life and career but this experience has left me questioning everything I have ever done. What an awful feeling. I am so sorry you had to go through that, especially with a new baby. It warms my heart and gives me hope that you have been able to move past it. I sincerely thank you for the show of raw emotion and wish you and yours the best.

Sir i am a hvac mep engineer in Aec construction industry keen to know - What are some top ways to 3x or 5x our salary after joining the company ? In small or big companies how it works as some top players of the team star individuals say it's possible so what's their secret or methods to reach that goal..apart from being good at our craft which skills and traits are needed..

I loved the start of the session. In 25 minutes, such a great explanation. Slightly faster, but very useful.

Then why don't they say it on board instead mumbo combo words and colours.

This is a risk in itself,mumbo jumbo.Proper words.

Hi Influential PMO, as someone who’s new to PM and just passed the APM I am enjoying your videos. I was wondering if you had any advice for how a PM could upskill themselves during ‘down time’ between projects. Essentially none of my projects are at delivery points and right now I’m kind of waiting on quotes or mock ups etc (don’t want to go into too much detail about my projects..!) thank you in advance if you have any pointers or a steer in the right direction, I enjoy Pm and want to be a good PM!

I understand it can I have more videos it is easier to understand than other videos 😊

I supposed to attend the meeting you had on the 16th July this month unfortunately I was doing other activities which needed me to be settle. I am now in London can we schedule another meeting. Apologies

How are u sir..

Thank you for the video, it is very helpful

In the scenarios you have worked in where you are given an already written scope did that or in such scenarios would you expect that scope document to come with detail around the quality requirements? Also I would love a video on writing a SoW or similar scoping document.

Can I ask what's the difference between a contracted and a normal job. Furthermore I want to get into construction project management so would I just need an APM qualification for it?

OMG!!! Thank you so much for this!!! haha!! I had an assignment due and this was SO helpful!! Thank you again!

Very good input @Stuart. Looking at it from a pure PPM view and I must say that all is there. If my PMs could report as per your suggestions, i'd be extatic every month 😂

New here. Thanks a lot. I will be in your inbox soon.

Thank-you Stuart. That was very insightful. The focus on just the decisions, risks and financials will also help in Steering being more engaged at the meeting, and drive regular attendance to these. Thank-you so much for the template also👍🏼

I like this a lot, Stuart. I think your focus on decision-making is spot-on.

Brilliant video mate

I randomly got advertisement about project manager training, and now im heading down the rabbit hole and considering this as a next step. Your video was super helpful! Other videos i watched left me confused. Yours really explains why the companies would wanna hire you. I didnt realize its a job to job thing with different organizations until yoir video. Makes it seem more exciting tbh! Thanks for your video! 💫
