As a certified Project Management Professional and with over 10 years of project management (PM) experience, I can say I have seen it all – from training to consulting in various capacity for diverse companies. I get asked the question a lot why a career in PM having studied Mechanical Engineering? Quite simply, because my career took an interesting & rewarding turn when I delved into PM and I have never looked back since.
The truth is that we all handle projects from personal to educational projects (e.g. final year project) to business projects. I started handling business projects right after university. I later took a course in PM and became certified. The knowledge I gained enabled me to know how to manage resources and stakeholders better.
Motivation for taking it as a career path stemmed at first from the thought of starting out at the level of a ‘Manager’ as it is a managerial course. Also, as a project manager you are not really limited in career choice as every facets of business constantly engages in projects and in need of your services. Then also, it is a very interesting field which requires a lot of planning and engaging with stakeholders. PM is a very lucrative industry. Project Managers play very important roles by helping organizations in meeting up with their Strategy; they are also involved in management of change and assist in overall development. Project managers have demanding jobs but are adequately compensated.
From the oil and gas industry, to telecoms, there are very lucrative offers for PM roles. You can also choose to become a consultant to numerous companies. A lot of opportunities exist because it is not industry specific. The journey begins by starting with a PM training from top-notch trainer that can set you on the right path and offer you good advice about career path options.
