I was brought on a project to assist procurement and ap with their transition to new erp. However, I see many issues that get brought up to me in meetings around more strategy based work or process changes that are not in scope for my project. How would you go about trying to help in these areas without stepping on toes or interfering with other internal stakeholders. Part of me feels like the new erp system is causing more issues and you can make a bigger difference through people/process Chang

It’s a large org too so there’s so many stakeholders at play that I almost feel like it’s impossible to get everyone on board and actually make those changes. Just feel like implementing technology helps but it’s not the solution for everything

When you meet with a partner for a new assignment. Do you bill for that time? I’m a new associate, so I don’t know. On the one side it seems that meeting and conferring for an assignment requested by the the client would be billable since it’s using firm time and resources. On the other side, we are just talking about how to tackle the assignment and not tackling the assignment itself.

Hi Fishes 🐠,

Hope you are doing great!

I wanted to reach out because I’m currently exploring new opportunities. I have 4 years of experience in project management and business operations. Please help sharing/referring if there is any PMO/Project Management you have.
Just to add, I am currently serving my notice period and will be available to join after 20th Jan'22.

im not confident in the accuracy of my work. It looks like a top notch deliverable from the outside with formatting, context, etc. But once the client digs into the details, it’s game over for my anxiety. Cant get enough manager review, but Im trying. It’s like the push to just send something by a certain timeline means we sacrifice accuracy.
