Presentation: Reaching Career Level with General Management / PM Expert Caerer and Talent Development
Abstract: Project managers are often seen as experts rather than real business managers. This is not correct. Facts deliver the evidente, that the main business load is carried out by PMs and most of the companies / corporate success relies on them.
In this presentation I will show a model how an organization can create a career development model with clear targets and a clear growth path, talent is fostered and high performers are retained. Participants can learn, what is important to successfully implement such a model and what it takes to maintain it in a global context. Project managers can learn how to navigate the own career and what level of self-responsibility modern structures require to lead for example with the principle of servant leadership.
