You manage projects in every position, no matter what your job title is or industry. Successful project management requires many skills, including the ability to manage budgets and communicate effectively with stakeholders. Employers are seeking employees that can manage large or small projects independently. The demand for qualified project managers is growing. Project Management Institute (PMI), the world's largest association for project managers, anticipates more than 200,000 project management jobs in the USA by 2027. This is in addition to filling many of the positions that have been vacant due to retirement, which they discovered was creating a significant talent gap. Although you may not be looking to become a project manager full-time, your project management skills can still prove valuable in today's highly competitive work environment.
