Towards the end of Septemeber I was talking to an old friend/co-worker from a ways back, and I asked whether she had acquired her PMP certificate yet. She answered "no", but there was that same old: "Where am I going to find the time and motivation?" So I offered to start coaching her through it all and we set a time for later in the week to reconnect.
Not 24 hours later I was talking to another friend that is looking at a job change in 2024 and he asked me how hard it was to get a PMP certification. Light bulb! So I added him to that same meeting later in the week.
Fast forward 6 weeks, and we had 8 people in the group. We get together each Monday at 6:00 pm and for 45 minutes we discuss what each person had accomplished in the past week, what they plan to accomplish in the next week, and bring up any new information to share. We review PMI.org and ProjectManagement.com requirements and tools and talk about various books, videos, podcasts, AI tools, classes, and other training resources, and above all we motivate, laugh a lot, and do our best to hold each other accountable.
It's a PMP Master Mind and here are the details:
