The Advantage of Leadership | Episode 110
www.pm-podcast.com/110. Everywhere you turn these days project management experts are talking about the need for us all to move from project management to project leadership. Here at The PM Podcast we have tackled this subject a number of times on previous leadership podcasts in the past and today we will continue this journey by taking a look at The Advantage of Leadership.
The Advantage of Leadership is the name of a book that contains words of wisdom from various leadership experts. It was born of the belief that you can never have too much information. It brings together the knowledge and wisdom of individual leaders from across the field, offering a most comprehensive resource for the reader. It contains 11 chapters, each written by a different expert. It covers a broad spectrum of topics like leading with motivation, leading a team, servant leadership or learned leadership.
To discuss a number of concepts from the book we welcome leadership development expert Stan Levanduski, PMP. He is the driving force behind The Advantage of Leadership and helped bring it all together. Stan is also one of our lecturers on PM Lectures, where he teaches us how to respond to Leadership Challenges of Complex Projects.

The Value of Project Management | Episode 109
Переглядів 1Годину тому
If someone asks you explain what you do as a project manager, do you sometimes struggle to explain it? It’s easy to explain the hard tasks like building houses, changing processes or developing software, but once I get to the less tangible items like project team motivation or relationship management I usually begin to lose the listener. It gets even worse if you have to explain the value of pr...

www.pm-podcast.com/108. Has your project ever been audited? Was it a good experience or would you much rather spend 2 hours at the dentist instead? We met up with Elizabeth Harrin, author of Project Management in the Real World , at the PMI® Global Congress in Denver last month and we discussed not project audits, but its cousin Peer Reviews. We define what a peer review is and how it compares ...

Since this project aims at replacing the current SIG structure with a centralized model and thereby dissolving the SIGs this means that the one voice we definitely want to hear is that of the SIGs. That is why we got together with Derry Simmel, who is the ...

Measuring and Managing Project Quality | Episode 099
Переглядів 521 годину тому
www.pm-podcast.com/099. Several Quality-related problems are unique to projects. For one, it is difficult to measure. In fact, often key stakeholders cannot evaluate the true quality of the results until the delivery day, and then it is too late to do anything to resolve gaps. Also projects often produce something new. So there are few standards against which to evaluate “good” results. This me...

❤ I am your Fan Cornelius. Very helpful podcast
Thanks for listening. We're in the middle of uploading all 500+ episodes here to UA-cam... you may want to take a vacation to have enough free time... :-)
It would help to put number on each one so if UA-cam does not, learners can.
I'm not completely sure I understand your comment (sorry!). What exactly do you mean by " put number on each one"?
I agree
Thank you. I know that this may be a somewhat "controversial" PMP Exam Tip, but I have seen too many of my students take the exam from home, and then get disqualified for what does seem like "minor" infractions. While these rules are in place for a good reason (and I personally approve of them), I cannot recommend taking the exam from home if you can avoid it. Go to your local testing center instead.
#AI
Congratulations on the 500th episode! I've listened to most of the podcasts since 2011, when I got my PMP certification. I have many favorite ones, and surely amongst them are the ones with Elizabeth Harrin and Margaret Meloni. So much amazing knowledge. Thank you so much for the hard work. Best of luck for the coming years. 😃🎉
You are too kind! Thank you so much for saying that!
Wishing you and team all the best for your future endeavours and for the road ahead. You guyz have been doing a fabulous work in this domain.
Thank you. Thank you.
Great time capsule episode! 😀
Yes... it's "been a while" since I recorded this particular episode... 😁
some examples?
Hi Cornelius, great presentation thanks (second time posting this, first one disappeared for some reason). In the video you state the launch special ($99) lasts until June 30th, but on the website it stays 31st of May, so wanted to check which was correct? Thanks!
The website hasn't been updated yet. $99 launch special will continue until 2024-June-30.
Visit www.pm-prepcast.com/ai for all the details of the course.
I saw you live but wanted to reinforce my praise for this video.
Thank you so much, Beth. Much appreciated!

Looks great, Cornelius! Gave you a shout out on LinkedIn.
Thank you David! Appreciate it.
Also, please check your email... I had a question for you regarding this course.

Thanks for the informative video! I completed the CAPM exam online today and at the end of the exam it said "Congratulations" but I'm uncertain whether I passed or not. It's quite stressful to wait for the results. When I log in to PMI or Pearson, it just says STATUS: Taken. I hope I get the results soon!
@alphmeister: No need to worry! If you see "Congratulations" at the end of your exam, then you have passed with 99.999% certainty. You should receive an email from PMI within 24 hours to confirm, but that's usually just a formality. Therefore... Congratulations on passing your CAPM exam from me! Are you planning on doing the PMP sometime in the future?
@@CorneliusFichtnerPrepCast thank you for your reply! That’s awesome news, thank you very much! I’m in operations management right now, I’m tying to get into project management and yes, I’ll be looking at taking the PMP once I’ve got some experience. Thanks again!
Great video!!

Thank you Mr. CorneliusFichtner and Mr. David Luria for such a wonderful podcast with lots of useful information.
Thank you so much for creating this video and the website for people to earn PDUs. I was reading books all this time to earn my PDUs but now I prefer listening to interviews (posted on your website) to stay current with the current topics in the market place... BUT most of all the information you shared with the audience in this video is priceless.... Your knowledge sharing is AMAZING :-) Thank you
Insightful podcast on future-proofing project managers in the era of AI, hosted by the knowledgeable Cornelius Fichtner with valuable contributions from guest Lenka Pincot. Thank you both of your for such a wonderful and knowledgeble Podcast.
Just amazing, full of valuable information episode!
Hi, I have a bachelors with honours degree from a top UK University. In the UK, bachelors degree are almost all 3 years, unlike most other countries in which it's 4. Will this still count as a '4 year degree?' Thanks.
They ask for a four year degree or global equivalent, so you should be good with that!
Thank you for the lesson, very educative.
Seems sketchy and unethical that PMI won't provide specific details to justify their action. Why should the candidate be responsible for PMI's failure to administer an exam.
Thank you so much! I feel I had a mentor session ))))
Thanks a Bunch
You are welcome.
Charges?
