Join Cornelius Fichtner for the launch of The PM PrepCast Leadership Academy Interviews, our advanced video series on project leadership. If you want to go above and beyond your project management competencies then this masterclass with conversational interviews from 15 distinguished global leaders is for you. Project leadership is not one-size-fits-all, so we built this class with the senior project manager who is on a leadership track in mind.

We'll talk about how the course helps you become a change maker in your organization, win and maintain your team's trust, how to get assigned to more critical projects, but most importantly, create meaningful and lasting change.
