Im aligned to a PMO and act as a Program Manager with the project manager title - I own the strategy for a few programs and I'm in way too many meetings but it's the nature of the role. One of the reasons why I'm looking around but don't get a sense things will be much different. What's your average?

like

10-15 min for team meetings which include daily stand ups with developers or designers doing the work

like

15/20 a week

20 to 25 hours per week

My last client I was in meetings at least 3/4 of the time. New client now 1/3 of the time.

Recently, I inherited a mess of a project. During the scope stages, it became more and more apparent that effective communication hadn't been established across all key stakeholders.

I'm a firm believer that the right communication establishes a structure for effective project execution. It lays down clear project goals and objectives, leaving no room for ambiguity.

Creating a communication matrix often makes a difference to planning. How do you manage your communication within your projects?

Looking for opportunities to work in my field eventually. I’m almost certified in project management through Google. Since I was previously trained in project management, I’m doing sometimes a week or 2 weeks worth of google coursework in one evening. I have used project management tools to improve processes and business outcomes ($$) in my jobs. And I have worked to teach others these principles to improve efficiency.
