This episode is a masterclass on how real careers get built through delivery, trust, and sharp thinking. If you’ve ever wondered how consulting shapes great project leaders, this episode lays it out.
My guest, Joe Naaman, has built a career across global consulting firms, complex delivery environments, and now as CEO of PorterLifestyle. He’s seen what works and what burns out fast.
In this conversation, we unpack:
* What Project Management offers organizations, especially on the strategic level
* Why consulting is the ultimate training ground for PMs
* How to build trust and influence no matter your title
* The human side of delivery: reading rooms, managing clients, and earning credibility
* What separates project managers who move work from those who move organizations
“The people who thrive aren’t always the loudest or the most technical. They’re the ones who listen, adapt, and follow through. That’s what clients remember.”
Whether you’re consulting today, leading PMOs, or thinking about what’s next, this episode is a roadmap for doing the work, and doing it well.
