The dilemma most aspiring project managers have, is their lack of experience, and frankly, who is going to employ somebody to run their project who has little or no experience. But don't despair, there are roles to help aspiring project managers build their experience and skill set. Working in a Project Management Office (PMO) or as a Project Coordinator can give valuable insight. Look for opportunities to work alongside experienced project managers and carefully watch how they work.

對于有志成為項目經(jīng)理的人員而言，他們所面臨的最大困難是經(jīng)驗的缺乏,。坦率地說,，沒有人愿意雇傭幾乎沒有什么經(jīng)驗的人來管理項目。請不要絕望,，一些任務(wù)有助于幫助有志成為項目經(jīng)理的人員來增強經(jīng)驗和技能,。在項目管理辦公室（PMO），或者作為項目協(xié)調(diào)員,，可以帶來有價值的見解,。要尋找與經(jīng)驗豐富的項目經(jīng)理一道工作的機會,，請仔細(xì)觀察他們的工作方式,。

People often ask whether gaining a project management certification will help? In short, yes. Any employer is going to want to know you understand the tools and techniques needed to run successful projects. Gaining a PM certification shows you are serious about joining the profession and can complete a rigorous programme of study. Often these certifications can open doors and help you get a few steps further up the ladder to your goal.

我們通常會問：獲得項目管理證書是不是會對我們有所幫助？簡單回答,，答案是肯定的,！任何雇主都想得知你能知曉成功運作項目的工具與方法。獲得項目管理證書,，會顯示出你對進入項目管理領(lǐng)域的工作是相當(dāng)認(rèn)真的,，并能完成細(xì)致的項目研究。通常而言,，這些項目管理證書可以為你打開項目管理之門,，并能為幫你達成目標(biāo)搭建 “階梯”。

Much is written about the skills needed to become a project manager. I won't list them here, but you should identify the skills needed and match them to, those you have, those you need, and those you need to improve. Project management involves a lot of soft skills, so don't just look at those in the syllabus' of project management certifications. I recommend you take some time to read David Litten's, eight skills needed on the path to project management.

關(guān)于成為項目經(jīng)理所需要掌握的技能,，已經(jīng)有太多的書籍,。因此，我不會具體羅列出來,，不過,，你應(yīng)該要辨別出需要掌握的技能，并將那些技能與自身具備的技能,，以及需要改善的技能進行匹配,。實際上，項目管理涵蓋了諸多的軟性技能,，所以,，請不要拘泥于項目管理證書上的項目管理技能大綱。在這,，我建議你花些時間來閱讀戴維-利頓所著的《通向項目管理之路所需的8大技能》一書,。
