After I took the required classes I was observed on many occasions working at the Unit level and in the Planning Section Chief (PSC) position. This observation was documented in a "task book" and is a great process that allows a more seasoned PSC to observe, provide comment and eventually credential new Plans Chiefs. In my $.02 a key difference between the PSC task book and the process for submitting Project Manager experience for the PMP exam is the task book provides a built in mentoring tool.
In this episode I share how similar criteria and processes could be used to credential Project Managers. Below are the high level areas I discuss in more detail in this episode:
* PSC Requirement: Competency in subordinate positions -> PM Requirement: Competency as Scheduler and Coordinator
* PSC Requirement: Competency to assume PSC role -> PM Requirement: Experience and readiness to take on PM for project
* PSC Requirement: Ability to lead assigned personnel -> PM Requirement: Ability to facilitate teamwork and processes
* PSC Requirement: Ability to communicate effectively -> PM Requirement: Ability to facilitate project reporting and comms
* PSC Requirement: Align assignments with objectives -> PM Requirement: Validate task alignment with scope, budget and schedule
Thank you all for listening, subscribing, rating, reviewing and providing your feedback.
Godspeed,
Kevin
