Hi Fishbowlers, I am trying to transition into Program management (non-technical), and so far my understanding is that you need to be good at collaborating, working cross-functionally, planning, and communication. I am trying to understand what tools/certification that y’all would recommend to add to my portfolio in order to up my chances of getting recognized.
