ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
What happens when a student who didn’t intend to be a project manager ends up shaping the direction of the global project management profession?
In this episode of Project Management Matters, I sit down with Lenka Pincot, PMI’s Chief of Staff to the CEO, to explore her journey from unexpected beginnings to strategic leadership. We talk about everything from her early exposure to real-world software projects as a university student, to leading digital transformations in banking, to now helping PMI at the global level.
Lenka doesn’t just talk about frameworks, she talks about elevating the profession. From integrating agile and project management to reshaping what project success really means, she offers a compelling look at where the profession is heading.
In this episode:
* How Lenka’s accidental entry into project management shaped her career
* What global community engagement looks like at PMI today
* The surprising overlaps between consulting and project management
* Why the conversation around project “failure” needs a serious update
* How PMI is redefining success and why the future of the profession is all about integration, flexibility, and community
Whether you’re a seasoned PM leader or just starting out in the field, Lenka’s story is a reminder that impact doesn’t always follow a straight path. Having the right mindset and community, can help you transform the world, one project at a time.
