What Every Project Leader Needs to Know Right Now with Jeanette Cremor

Every project has its unique challenges, but true project leadership is about more than just delivering on deadlines—it’s about legacy, self-leadership, and navigating complexity with confidence. In this episode, I sit down with Jeanette Cremor (JC), a seasoned expert in project management with over 25 years of experience across government, higher education, and utilities. JC is the author of Real Project Leadership, where she shares a powerful framework designed to help project leaders move beyond processes and into purpose-driven leadership. What We Cover in This Episode: The Legacy Mindset—Why every project should be approached with the question: If it ended today, what impact have you left for tomorrow? The Three Pillars of Real Project Leadership—Self-leadership, practice, and solution leadership, and why these matter more than traditional project management methods. The Power of Emotional Intelligence—How “mirror moments” help leaders develop self-awareness and resilience. Common Pitfalls in Project Leadership—Siloed teams, shifting priorities, and change resistance—and how to navigate them effectively. Shifting Mindsets for Success—How embracing legacy-driven leadership creates lasting impact. Building a Culture of Trust and Collaboration—Why project sponsors should be involved in setting shared values from the start. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone leading projects—whether you’re new to leadership or a seasoned professional looking to enhance your impact and effectiveness.
