The Accidental Project Management

Many of us never set out to be project managers. We came from fields like marketing, banking, operations, or design — roles where initiative, coordination, and follow-through were just “part of the job.” But somewhere between launching campaigns, managing clients, and leading cross-functional teams, we found ourselves doing project management — without the title, training, or a formal plan.

This session is for those who’ve led projects without realizing it, and for professionals ready to transition from informal experience to intentional expertise. Drawing from my own journey as a PMP-certified project manager with roots in [Marketing/Banking], I’ll share insights on recognizing your hidden PM experience, reframing your skills, and finding your unique path into the profession — without starting over.
