PM Insight Sunnyvale Virtual Meeting - Project Management in A Startup Environment vs. in A Large Corporation

Virtual Event

Silicon Valley is home to some of the most impressive technology companies in the world. Within this small geography you will find Fortune 50 companies mixed among a sea of startups. Each company will have its own unique culture, but there are some common traits among the two tiers of corporate and startup that set them apart.

I have had the opportunity to work on many different project teams across world class operations and within small early-stage startups. The main differences between the two are: working knowledge, stakeholders, available resources, agility, and speed.

What used to take me months to plan with a team of engineers and analysts in corporate companies could be accomplished in weeks with a small agile team of specialists in an early-stage startup. While the corporation is setting up their project boards in their favorite online shared resource, a resourceful project lead is creating lines of tasks in a shared spreadsheet at a startup.
