Hey, Reader,
Want to know the dirty secret about project management that nobody talks about?
Most project managers spend 80% of their time putting out fires and only 20% actually leading their projects forward. (Pareto Principle is legit!)
And it's not because they're bad at their job.
It's not because they lack experience.
It's not even because they don't know what needs to be done.
👉It's because they've built an environment that keeps them stuck in reactive mode.
Something I’ve learned through years of planning: The difference between constantly firefighting and confidently leading often comes down to just simple shifts in how you approach your projects.
I've packaged these shifts into a free 5-day email course: "Project Leadership Jumpstart"
Here's what you'll learn:
- The Project Leader's Mindset (including a practical Project Health Check template)
- The Stakeholder Influence Map that prevents surprise escalations
- The Quickly and Easy 3-3-3 Risk Method you'll actually use
- A proven implementation plan that takes just a few time blocks each day
- Real templates you can implement immediately
The best part? Each lesson takes less than 10-15 minutes to consume and implement.
Email will go out daily, 10a Monday - Friday, starting 24 Feb.
Here's to leading projects, not just managing them,

P.S. The first lesson includes my Project Health Check template – a simple but powerful tool. Click above to get started!
