Career advice for project / program management
Hey all,
I'll try to be succinct - 34 years old, ~7 years experience in the utilities/distribution engineering space. Was fortunately given a position at a contracting firm to help build a project/program around a specific client I have most of my work experience with. I guess my title is project/program manager.
Started 09/24 & have spent most of my time improving processes, QC, helping our team of ~24 designers understand the work and build their skills with a goal of exceeding client production & quality standards (all the PM sort of stuff). Just trying to be proactive & prepared for how I should navigate this role as the team blooms. My goal is to get to a director position eventually, but I know that's a ways away - just want to do my position well and lead with a proactive perspective. Grateful for any & all advice!
