E98 Getting (Sh)It Done with Bruno Morgante
In this episode of Project Management Office Hours, Bruno Morgante and PMO Joe discussed Bruno’s career in the PMO space, PM Training, and the powerful impact of Mentoring.
Bruno’s unique story and path to PMO leadership started not within the Project Management field rather promoting concerts back in his home country of Italy. Those early career experiences were setting the stage for a distinguished Project Management career as he learned the importance of Stakeholder Management, Negotiation, Influence, Budgeting, Planning, and Teamwork.
Bruno shared that he enjoys solving problems, inspiring others, and accomplishing his goals. He is an outcomes driven leader who solves problems and delivers results. Bruno is also deeply invested in mentoring. As a Mentor, he helps young individuals and people in need by providing ‘pro bono’ guidance, support and advice about Leadership, Personal Development, Career Development, PMO, Portfolio, Program and Project Management.
The mutual growth Bruno and the mentees have is a truly enriching experience. It’s a conversation where you get with somebody that has been where you are going. It’s an opportunity for you to be able to listen to what they have done in their career. “That was when I decided that I absolutely wanted to give back to society. So, I decided to carve out a lot of my free time to support people. Then, I started doing much more mentoring, Pro-Bono mentoring online on different platforms, of course, like the mentoring club being the biggest one, which is a nonprofit organization based here in Berlin.” -Bruno

Each of us has a unique story to tell, but collectively we share a message that organizations who embrace Project Management Best Practices perform better than those which don’t. Organizations which align Projects to Strategy perform better. Organizations with Engage Executive Sponsors deliver better results.

During our Project Management Office Hours, we hear directly from Industry leaders how to make an impact in our profession. How we, collectively, will Advance Project Management Best Practices, One Listener at a time!
