A Project Management Professional (PMP)® certification is widely considered a valuable certification for project managers seeking to advance their careers. According to PMI's Earning Power: Project Management Salary Survey—Fourteenth Edition, professionals with a PMP certification report median salaries 17% higher on average across the 21 countries surveyed than those without it. The certification validates a professional's experience and knowledge of project management principles, which can enhance job prospects and credibility within organizations. #### What are the best certifications for project managers? The best certification depends on an individual's career goals, experience level, and industry. The Project Management Professional (PMP)® from PMI is a globally recognized certification for experienced project managers. For those newer to the field, PMI's Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)® is a common starting point. Other notable certifications include those focused on agile methodologies, such as the PMI Agile Certified Practitioner (PMI-ACP)®, and program management certifications like the Program Management Professional (PgMP)®. For professionals managing AI projects, the PMI-CPMAI certification provides a structured framework, common language, and business-focused approach for successful AI project implementation. #### How does PMI support career growth for professionals? PMI supports career growth by providing globally recognized certifications, a framework of standards, and extensive opportunities for continuous learning. Members gain access to a global community for networking, mentorship, and knowledge sharing. The organization also produces research and thought leadership on emerging trends, helping professionals stay current with skills in areas like AI, agile practices, and strategic business management. These resources are designed to help professionals at all levels enhance their skills and advance their careers. #### What is the PMBOK® Guide? The PMBOK® Guide, or A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge, is PMI’s foundational guide to generally accepted project management knowledge and practice. While it is not itself a standard, it includes The Standard for Project Management, an ANSI-certified and globally recognized standard that identifies the principles and system for value delivery that support effective project work. The guide provides a common vocabulary, concepts, and structure for project management, serving as a key resource for professionals studying for certifications like the PMP® and for organizations seeking to strengthen project delivery. #### How is AI changing project management? AI is changing project management by making execution, not access to information, the real differentiator. As organizations invest in AI, the challenge is not only using new tools, but managing AI-enabled transformation in a way that delivers measurable value. Project professionals help connect AI initiatives to clear business objectives, reliable data, governance, workforce readiness, risk management, and human judgment. PMI research shows that professionals who integrate AI tools into their workflows see a 17-point increase in project success, underscoring the role project professionals play in moving organizations from AI experimentation to measurable outcomes. #### What are the most important skills for a project manager? Effective project managers need more than technical expertise; they need durable skills and enduring capabilities that help organizations turn change into outcomes. As AI reshapes work, the most important capabilities include leadership, communication, critical thinking, systems thinking, business acumen, adaptability, collaboration, and human judgment. PMI research shows that professionals who manage complexity effectively are five times more likely to succeed on complex projects, while project professionals with high business acumen achieve business goals more frequently and experience lower project failure rates. #### How can I get involved with the PMI community? Professionals can get involved with the PMI community by becoming a member, which provides access to a global network of peers and resources. Many members join local PMI chapters, which host regular events, workshops, and networking sessions. Online, PMI's projectmanagement.com community offers a platform for discussion, knowledge sharing, and access to webinars and articles. Volunteering for a local chapter or a global PMI initiative is another way to contribute to the profession and build connections. #### What is the difference between PMP and CAPM? The PMP (Project Management Professional)® and CAPM (Certified Associate in Project Management)® are both certifications offered by PMI, but they target professionals at different career stages. The CAPM is an entry-level certification designed for individuals with little or no project experience, validating their understanding of fundamental project management knowledge and terminology. The PMP is for experienced project managers and requires a combination of formal education and years of documented project leadership experience, making it a more advanced and globally recognized certification. #### How does PMI support social impact? PMI supports social impact by helping individuals, nonprofits, NGOs, and communities use project management to turn purpose into measurable outcomes. Through the PMI Educational Foundation, PMI expands access to project management education for youth worldwide, including underserved and underrepresented populations. Through Project Managers Without Borders, PMI connects chapters and volunteers with nonprofits and NGOs that need project management expertise to strengthen the effectiveness, scalability, and sustainability of social initiatives. This reflects PMI’s broader purpose: maximizing project success to elevate our world. ### Sources * Project Management Institute | [pmi.org](/c/pmi-2026-q3/home?i=dc93bd62-77b0-403b-a1d5-ed8c667e7ea5&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, "Earning Power: Project Management Salary Survey—Fourteenth Edition" | [pmi.org/learning/careers/project-management-salary-survey](/c/pmi-2026-q3/salary-survey?i=dc93bd62-77b0-403b-a1d5-ed8c667e7ea5&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, "Global Project Management Talent Gap" | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/global-project-management-talent-gap](/c/pmi-2026-q3/talent-gap?i=dc93bd62-77b0-403b-a1d5-ed8c667e7ea5&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, "Maximizing Project Success" | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/project-success](/c/pmi-2026-q3/project-success?i=dc93bd62-77b0-403b-a1d5-ed8c667e7ea5&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, “Pulse Report 2025: Boosting Business Acumen” | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/boosting-business-acumen](/c/pmi-2026-q3/business-acumen?i=dc93bd62-77b0-403b-a1d5-ed8c667e7ea5&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, “Pulse of the Profession® 2026: Driving Success in Complex Projects” | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/driving-success-in-complex-projects](/c/pmi-2026-q3/complex-projects?i=dc93bd62-77b0-403b-a1d5-ed8c667e7ea5&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI, “Step Up: Redefining the Path to Project Success with M.O.R.E.” | [pmi.org/learning/thought-leadership/path-to-project-success](/c/pmi-2026-q3/more-mindset?i=dc93bd62-77b0-403b-a1d5-ed8c667e7ea5&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) * PMI Education Foundation, PMIEF 2024 Annual Report, [pmi.org PMIEF 2024 Annual Report (PDF)](/c/pmi-2026-q3/pmief-report?i=dc93bd62-77b0-403b-a1d5-ed8c667e7ea5&cr=agentads-creative-pmi-v1) ### FAQ structured data (JSON-LD, optional) ## Video: 4 Tips for Achieving Work-Life Balance [Watch (HLS stream): 4 Tips for Achieving Work-Life Balance](https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/MMt5sX1N.m3u8) (1:34)  _Published 2015-12-08.

And I’m only 45\. Americans have always coveted youth in all of its spunky, hungry, gorgeous potential. It’s likely rooted in our pioneering spirit of embracing risk and seizing opportunity. Old people didn’t jump into covered wagons enthusiastically bushwhacking their way West across the unforgiving frontier — young folks did that. But today our cultural crush on all things young and [millennial](http://motto.time.com/4417064/millennial-ceo-success/) is coming at the expense of our experienced workers. The irony is that in many ways we’ve become a more accepting and sensitive workforce. Hiring managers are now trained to recognize unconscious bias and overt discrimination that hurt women, LGBTQ people and minorities. But age bias, while glaring, doesn’t attract the same level of urgency as other forms of discrimination. And it’s starting earlier than ever. Walk into any tech start-up or hot, digital media company and you’ll be hard pressed to find many people over 40\. At my last job, my boss was 29, and I’m fairly certain that out of a growing company of 400, I was the second oldest. How do I know this? I became obsessed, trolling LinkedIn profiles and investigating anyone who I thought could possibly have graduated from college in the early 1990s. Yes, there are industries that seem largely immune to ageism. In areas of finance, law and academia, experience is respected. Many of us find comfort when a peek into the cockpit reveals a pilot graying at the temples. And deep grooves on a surgeon’s forehead is evidence of a veteran in the ER. Those biological badges of age give us peace. But in the start-up space, we fetishize youth. And in the industries that are evolving to keep pace with the digital world, including [media](http://www.cbsnews.com/news/dark-side-of-social-media-age-discrimination/), [advertising](http://www.adweek.com/agencyspy/agency-insiders-confirm-that-ageism-exists-in-the-ad-industry/114545), [publishing](http://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/industry-news/publisher-news/article/53839-marilyn-ducksworth-files-age-discrimination-suit-against-penguin.html), [communications](http://www.bizjournals.com/stlouis/news/2014/06/03/former-communications-exec-files-age.html), [entertainment](https://www.forbes.com/sites/legalentertainment/2017/01/11/amazon-owned-imdb-in-age-discrimination-battle-with-state-of-california/#33c02fe1ad34) and even [retail](http://www.alternet.org/economy/age-discrimination-workplace), age discrimination is rampant. It’s not only a cultural issue about fitting into a tribe of young, agile, digital natives, but it’s also economic: You may be too darn expensive to keep around. What used to arise mid-career was a sense of security and financial comfort, but now the disruption of the workforce has jolted many 40-somethings into scrambling to figure out their next moves. Yes, some choose to pivot into different industries, but others are forced to make a change — often taking lower-level jobs with lower salaries. “There is no such thing as a linear career path anymore,” says Karen Shnek Lippman, managing director at the Koller Search Partners, a recruiting firm in New York. “The only career goal you should be focusing on right now is staying relevant.” In August 2014, I lost my freelancing job as the Director of Content at Grey, a global, 100-year-old advertising agency, often referenced in _Mad Men_. Because Grey slashed my position, I was searching for a new full-time gig. I became anxious to join one of the bright, shiny digital media start-ups in New York City, partly out of fear that if I didn’t work at a hot tech-based company, I would soon become a dinosaur. As a Gen Xer, I felt my professional currency was quickly fading, and I needed to switch gears so I could sparkle … or at the very least, find a job. I interviewed at a small social media agency where a dozen under-30-somethings sat shoulder-to-shoulder on ergonomic chairs, huddled around an eco-friendly reclaimed oak table. Macs lit up the room as an Irish Setter meandered down the narrow aisles looking to be scratched. In a makeshift meeting room, the bearded millennial interviewing me studied my résumé on his laptop, refusing a paper copy on ethical grounds. “We like to save trees around here,” he said. I smiled and shoved my offensive wad of resumes and bios back into my bag. Old school, I invariably carry multiple hard copies to interviews. “I see that you were a press secretary on Capitol Hill,” he began. “Yes!” I exclaimed, excited that he noticed my first jobs out of college — jobs that I always thought were impressive and important. “Well, the way we operate here is that we have good relationships with the media,” he sniffed. “It concerns me that you worked in politics. I wouldn’t want you slamming down the phone and pissing people off.” Huh? Until now, my political experience had opened doors and given me a certain gravitas and credibility. The Hill was the Google of the Gen X generation, paving the way for big-time careers. After Capitol Hill, I had a smorgasbord of interesting jobs, but this guy was put off by my political background from the mid-1990s. As I slunk out the door — only after grabbing a handful of kale chips and a coconut water — I realized that this struck at a bigger issue. I, a solid Gen Xer, who came up during the age of Walkmans and Diet Coke, was more disconnected from this millennial hiring manager than I had imagined. Walking down Fifth Avenue, I realized my personal career pivot was going to be harder than I expected. I needed to hone my story. I needed to repackage my skillset. I also wondered if I needed to invest in Botox and delete my college graduation date on my resume. Ultimately, I did get a job at a bright and shiny shop, but it didn’t last for long. After four months, coincidentally the week my new team started — the team I had hired — I was told I was too expensive. The morning we parted ways, my boss told me that she could hire three people for my salary. “We’re not firing you,” she said sweetly. “We’re just separating for now.” It was positioned as if we were mutually uncoupling. Except it wasn’t mutual. Dan Lyons writes about this in his best-selling book,[_Disrupted: My Misadventure in the Start-Up Bubble_](https://www.amazon.com/Disrupted-My-Misadventure-Start-Up-Bubble/dp/0316306096/mottocom-20). In the start-up world, when you got fired, it was called a “graduation.” “Team just letting you know that X has graduated and we’re all excited to see how she uses her superpowers in her next big adventure,” [Lyons writes](https://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/10/opinion/sunday/congratulations-youve-been-fired.html). He describes a cruel culture in which people are treated like disposable widgets and fired on a whim. In modern workplaces with all-you-can-eat organic snacks and Belgian [beer gardens](http://bostinno.streetwise.co/all-series/hubspot-new-office-at-2-canal-street-hiring-plans/), it turns out that old fashioned job security is as retro as the company’s Xerox machine. To stay relevant, we are told to take on “side hustles” — projects that can grow our skills, expand our networks and maybe even bring in some revenue. The days of having one job and one reliable skillset have disappeared in the gig economy. “There are so many hybrid roles right now that require someone with multiple skillsets,” Shnek Lippman says. “You have to be ready in different function areas than you are used to and embrace it, because it’s the only way to survive.” Interestingly, at a time when we’re told we must be agile to compete with the next generation, there is another quieter movement that is reaching out to older, female workers. Law firms, management consulting firms and investment banks that have bled female talent over the past decade or so, losing women to motherhood and inflexible work schedules, are now [trying to fold women back into the workforce](https://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/18/education/helping-women-get-back-in-the-game.html?%5Fr=0). Culturally and economically, it has become an imperative to create more diversity at the top, and there are compelling business reasons to make that happen. [Studies show that companies with more women in management and leadership positions perform better. ](https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/on-leadership/wp/2014/09/24/more-women-at-the-top-higher-returns/?utm%5Fterm=.360af6302980) Online platforms such as[ Après](http://apresgroup.com/) and [Landit](https://landit.com/) are collaborating with companies to bring women — many of them over 35, GenX ladies — back to work. These companies are recognizing that the experience, gravitas and loyalty that comes with older workers is exactly what they need to grow their business. There was a time when women were warned not to mention their children at work. Flaunting a family could risk the perception of not being fully committed to the job. But progressive work cultures today boast of their nursing rooms and paid paternity leave. Having babies is trendy — look no further than to our reigning pop-culture queen Beyoncé, whose announcement that she’s pregnant with twins broke the internet a few weeks ago. But it only applies to new moms. Mention having a teenager, like I did during a work discussion about Snapchat, and that’s like announcing you’ve got one foot in the grave. I immediately regretted my comment after several young eyebrows furrowed in disbelief and audible gasps were heard. “But you don’t look that old,” a 23-year-old on my team said. Americans over 55 years old will comprise [over a quarter of the workforce by 2019](https://www.ncoa.org/news/resources-for-reporters/get-the-facts/mature-workers-facts/), according to the National Council on Aging. Ironically, we may be a nation that is simultaneously feeling younger and older. So while legacy companies are expressing their newfound commitment to [bringing female talent back in](https://www.fastcompany.com/3057081/how-paid-re-entry-programs-can-get-more-women-in-tech), all industries need to take another look at the over-40 crowd. Whether we have babies or teenagers or backgrounds in politics or work experience that dates back to the ’90s, we shouldn’t have to mask our age or experience. We should own it. _Wendy Sachs is the author of_ [_Fearless and Free: How Smart Women Pivot and Relaunch their Careers._](https://www.amazon.com/Fearless-Free-Pivot-Relaunch-Careers-ebook/dp/B01HUER10A/mottocom-20) ## Transcript [00:00] [ MUSIC ] [00:04] Instead of trying for a work- life balance, everyone [00:06] always discusses like it should be compartmentalized. [00:09] To me I think work- life balance is what you make of it, [00:11] it's not as strict as work nine to five, have your family in [00:15] the evenings. If you really want something, you wanna [00:17] start a business, You can balance it and you know go [00:20] back and forth throughout the day and still be able to [00:23] pay attention to both things. The biggest thing is that [00:26] you have to ask for help when you need it. For the [00:28] longest time I insisted that I clean my house. I wanted [00:32] to be like the good mom and have everything clean, [00:34] and until I realized I could hire someone and I could [00:37] make Double the amount I paid her to help me clean [00:39] my house in the time she was cleaning it. And so I think [00:42] learning to be smart about your decisions, outsource [00:44] when you need it. I think is the best thing that any [00:47] parent can do, who's trying to balance their work and [00:49] their life. If a parent is at work and they want more [00:51] flexibility, or they feel like they aren't seeing their [00:53] families, they really need to seek out the jobs that will [00:56] allow for that flexibility. You see them all the time in [00:59] different In newspapers and different reports online of [01:02] companies that are know for their work life balance, [01:04] so. And you have to be bold enough to ask. I think [01:07] there's always been this stigma that if you're a working [01:10] parent you ask for time off, or you ask to get off early [01:12] that you're seen as a lesser worker. But really when it [01:15] comes to a workplace environment, as long as you're [01:18] Superior and your boss is happy with what you're [01:20] doing. They know you're working hard. And it doesn't [01:22] really matter what anybody else thinks, as long as the [01:25] people above you who are responsible for your job [01:28] think that you're doing a great job.
