Welcome to Audio Learning from Assemble You.

Landing that first project management role is a pretty exciting and fulfilling moment, but it's also incredibly daunting. The project's success now depends on what you do, so the company, the team, and the stakeholders will count on you.

That couldn't be further from the truth. Project managers are essential because leadership is hugely beneficial in achieving an aim. There's a lot of work that goes into it. Because it's your first project, there will be a reasonably steep learning curve, but the skills and knowledge that you will develop will be worth it.
