I am currently working as a Project Lead/Manager for a health care firm and wanna pivot towards TPM roles at tech firms.

Need some inputs from current TPM’s on how their day to day work looks like? What the role as a TPM looks like? What are the challenges? etc…

I am preparing myself to get into this role by trying to connect with TPM’s via LinkedIn, looking into posts/YouTube videos for interviews etc. Also applying for the roles simultaneously.

Looking for some guidance/help..

Personally, I agree with above. I think we're conditioned to think you have to be absolutely perfect to apply for a job, but the truth is, we learn as we go. So I would follow that approach recommended of doing your research and building your skillset and just start applying - you'd be surprised at the opps that come up!

Thank you so much for your response, will definitely follow your suggestion.

I think the two biggest challenges are gonna be keeping up with the technology and communicating effectively across the organization. Both of these will come with time though and it sounds like you’re already taking steps to develop your skills which is great.

Thank you so much for your response, yeah I forgot to mention I am into Data Analytics so I am in the technology but yeah wanna move to tech industries. Will definitely implement your suggestions.
Thank you once again!

You're on the right track. Talking to those already in the role and connecting is the best training. Might also check out a Udemy course if you like structure

Thank you so much for your response, will definitely check.

My suggestion is just to network. Find people in the jobs you want. Read their blogs, ask them questions, follow their YouTube videos. Application of tech isn't as important as knowing what the tech available is. Get to know your toolbox. And check in with friends who have already done it to check your progress against.

Also, if you're an absolute master at your job, it'll likely be boring. Get your skills up to a minimum threshold and start putting yourself out there. A lot of places will teach you the rest.

Is it just me or are there entirely too many people in Business Services, specifically TC’s, who are just folks from client service that don’t want to deal with hours and travel anymore but have no formal training in the Business Services function they transition to?
