Difficult PM??
Haha... I think I have a reputation here to be a difficult PM i.e.
- I won't take up any project that's outside my scope without prior instruction from my boss (i.e. if some other mgr says I'm gonna be in charge of Project A, which I've no clue of whatsoever and which was previously managed by another team)
- If the Sales Mgr gets a potential client whose requirement requires customization/integration, I refuse to deal with the client until we're sure that the deal will go thru (i.e. all loose ends taken care of in terms of any 3rd party confirmation, A&P, roles and responsibilities, etc.). Then I'll handle the project from there onwards. I mean, it's not like I won't do ANYTHING to try to get the deal. I'm fine with doing the proposals and service rollout plans but I just won't talk to the client unless they sign the deal and we're to proceed to development coz the person who got the deal is not me.
I guess they'd think I'm calculative and petty but I know my job scope and I do what I'm supposed to do. If I feel that it's worth it, I'll go the extra mile but right now, I couldn't be bothered. I think this is due to my I-dun-care-anymore-wat-I-do-here-and-I-wanna-get-out-of-here-now attitude. Soooo malas/fed up to deal with the things here already... bleeccckkk...
