There’s a great article at PM Boulevard on using contract or interim project managers (like me!). Contract Project Manager: Free Agents and Pinch Hitters. My clients generally use me as a mentor.
For companies that aren’t large enough to have a PM center of excellence, being able to provide mentoring and guidance to an up and coming employee is money well spent.
The Mentor is one of four reasons to bring in a contractor. The other reasons are:
- Peak Loading
- The Program Manager/Project Manager model
- The Consultant PM as head of the PMO
The author, Donna Fitzgerald has defined the rolls well. And I concur. If you have any questions, I’ll be happy to answer them.
