“PMs have a tendency of being lone wolves and I think going out into the community to understand what other challenges people are facing is a really great way to level set about where you are in the context of the field itself.”

It’s true: project management isn’t an easy job. And, depending on where you work, you can end up feeling like you’re on an island. So where do you turn when you need to vent, learn different perspectives, and grow your professional network?
