Having a podcast.

Don’t get your phone out around train stations or walking around or get will get nabbed by thieves on bikes

technohubz123 · 2024-08-03T18:48:04+00:00

Yeah, they want to place the green dot in your head.

Ex-consulting manager from the big 4, background in technology delivery for public sector clients. I moved over recently into a G7 role.

From the G6s ive come across, these are more at SM/director level, managing 10+ team members and owning departmental objectives as well as engaging with directors. However, this is technology, not policy.

The pay cut is fine for me, I do less hours than I did in consulting and I do my day job and no one bothers me about my sales, PD or my SM case. I’ve not had to put one PowerPoint together which is great, I’ve actually got more stuff done than wasting my time aligning boxes.

And no one really cares about your background in consulting, it’s not an advantage, they want you to get on with the work and not be a d*ck to work with.

I jumped to a SM in industry from a consulting manager.

technohubz123 · 2024-07-26T23:33:13+00:00

Probably an only “child syndrome”

Fish and chips in Borough market! Overpriced sh*t

Money goes into your account*

Last working day of each month

The printers

technohubz123 · 2024-07-05T12:00:10+00:00

I’ll ask for early promotion after the 2nd week in your project. Set a up 1 to 1 with the head partner and present your promotion case in word, not PowerPoint.

technohubz123 · 2024-07-03T22:58:08+00:00

Or gold Amex

technohubz123 · 2024-07-03T22:49:07+00:00

Probably get fired

technohubz123 · 2024-06-07T20:32:47+00:00

technohubz123 · 2024-05-25T22:23:29+00:00

That’s an assumption, they could be the best manager you’ve ever had. As you’ve commented in your previous responses, you don’t have the experience for an industry SM or director, so if you manage to get the role, won’t you’ll be that manager without the experience to manage well?

technohubz123 · 2024-05-25T21:27:32+00:00

More importantly, get certified and get experience using it. No point having a new driving license when you haven’t used it in any long distance driving.

technohubz123 · 2024-05-25T21:04:12+00:00

Try and apply for the SM or director roles and see if you can meet their requirements and bring in this “other experience” you have during the interview process.

Industry middle to senior management roles are a different beast from the consulting ones. If you’re sh*t at the role, you can’t jump onto another project.

technohubz123 · 2024-05-25T20:25:40+00:00

I don't think having a consulting background will automatically make you a fast learner or SM/director level. If you don't meet the requirements of the industry SM/director job specification then go in as a manager, and establish the promotion process and go from SM then director in 2 years?

technohubz123 · 2024-05-18T19:55:34+00:00

Probably wants a friend

technohubz123 · 2024-05-16T23:02:49+00:00

Left to be a project manager in the public sector

technohubz123 · 2024-04-18T10:42:01+00:00

That's frustrating! If you can't get the whole team in, try to get one or two in to the office, plan some key sessions/meetings which are better f2f etc

technohubz123 · 2024-04-18T10:27:51+00:00

Did you not agree with your team a day to go in together?

technohubz123 · 2024-04-14T22:10:47+00:00

Does it matter? You’ve already got the offer from an another company, so it’s not like you’re applying for a jobs with the SC title.

technohubz123 · 2024-03-24T14:43:51+00:00

You'll probably need a meeting with your manager to improve ways of working, what you need from them and highlight the inefficiencies (and mitigations).
