And he is still part of the PMO responsible for supporting the project management organization and its participants, such as internal and external customers, project managers, and team members.

One of Markus's central objectives and motivations is to implement and deploy the PMI project philosophy and a PMI-based project management methodology in his company.

Knowledge and Expertise

Markus's primary focus for the last 13 years has been in Project and Program Management, and PMO. The skills he developed as a Project Manager and Project Management Office leader in the IT service provision and outsourcing business leads to a passion for the PMI's project management philosophy. He earned his PMP certification in August 2015 and is a enthusiastic PMP and PMI promoter. This was the driver to create this PMP Exam Prep Guide, to support aspiring PMPs!
