What is it like to be an IT Project Manager – with Roy Macaraig

Are you thinking about getting into IT project management? Then you should watch the following video.

I had the opportunity to interview a fellow IT project Manager. His name is Roy Macaraig and he is originally from the Philippines but now working as an SAP project manager in Berlin, Germany. I’m sure you’ll find the conversation interesting. Here’s what we talk about:

  • What is special about IT project management?
  • What are the most common challenges in IT projects?
  • Roy’s advice for beginning project managers

Here are some of Roy’s quotes. My favorites are:

As a project manager, we’re communicators and we’re dealing with human beings, at the end of the day. It’s about being able to bring people together, understand what one person needs, what one person can provide, and basically collaborating towards one goal.

another one:

If you care about the people you work with, that just makes you do your best as much as you can, and you listen better, and they will see that.

That’s so true.

Tell me in the comments if you liked it! Then I will publish more videos like this.

Best,

Adrian
