If you ever wondered what being a project manager is like, then I have the perfect video for you!
My friend Adrian Neumeyer was an IT project manager inside some big German companies for years and he agreed to talk about his experience with me and share it on the blog for you.
My blog is about everything you might ever need in your FEA job… and project management is also one of those things as the more you stay inside your company, the more you will have chances to manage FEA Projects rather than doing those projects 100% yourself.
Project Management 101: How to start your first project
I called this video “How to start your first project”, because Adrian is also giving inside some very valuable advices about project management that you won’t hear from most of the people around you…
And he has a system to manage projects which is very interesting and that we all might learn about.
I recommend you to visit Adrian’s blog where he shares his advices about project management and conducting projects effectively: The Tactical Project Manager Blog
Adrian provides a free “Ultimate Guide for Getting Unstuck” which is quite good when you subscribe to his newsletter… This guide is definitively worth to read to complement what he said in the video.

If you are a simulation engineer or manager, you may want to know how to manage your FEA simulation projects and how to allocate the resources(time,money & people). Project management is a general skill useful to anyone, and if you intend to evolve in your company, you will need to learn how to manage projects.
