  • “Plan how to get promoted at work to project manager”

    I want a plan for how to get promoted at work from project coordinator to project manager within the next year. I work at a mid-size civil engineering consultancy in Vancouver and I've been a coordinator for three years.

    My manager is supportive but vague: she says I need to show I can run projects on my own. I already handle schedules, budget tracking and client updates on two municipal projects, but I don't own decisions, and I'm not sure if I need my PMP before I'm considered.
