Do you ever look back at a deliverable you submitted from a previous project and feel bad about how bad it was because you didn’t know better? Like your ineptitude will live forever on someone’s Sharepoint for many years and client employees to come 🙈

The real joke is thinking that anyone will ever look at your deliverable again after you close the project. 🤡

I usually have the opposite feeling - I look at the deck I made and i just wonder how did I manage to put it together in such a short span of time. Then I realize the gruelling hours I work and it makes sense

Taking pride in your work is a good thing, but as a matter of self-preservation, know how to set boundaries. Otherwise you're setting yourself up for perpetual dissatisfaction. Did the client sign off? If so, then your job is done. Take it and run.

No I usually look at my perfection and how many times it is cited as the ultimate policy, and it kills me that my good name is nowhere on it😢😢

I don’t feel bad about it. I did the best I could at the time. And I’ll likely never see or talk to that client again so who really cares? 🤷🏾‍♀️

I might cringe a little but usually proud for doing the best I could at the time and pulling through 🤷‍♀️

Hi everyone! I recently transitioned from a technical project manager role to an integrations product manager role. I am loving this so much more than project management and I’m very eager to learn more! I was curious what are some of the best books,articles, courses that have helped you grow the most? And do you have any other tips and recommendations for someone just starting out in this career path?

Thank you in advance!
