Phill Akinwale, OPM3, PMP (Leadership & Agile)

Welcome to my channel! I showcase different ideas about project management lifestyle, leadership and business.
I am the founder of the Project Leadership Institute, a forum to develop project managers and professionals. We meet on Saturday mornings and collectively learn.

I have helped thousands of project managers worldwide to become better leaders, ace interviews, craft their resumes and pass the PMP, CAPM, PMI-ACP, PMI-RMP, PSM and other exams.

Check out the website www.praizion.com for more information about what I offer through my firm Praizion Media.

🎄 Happy Holidays to my fellow PMPs and senior leaders,

Certifications are important milestones—but they are not the destination. While the PMP and PgMP build strong foundations, they do not fully integrate portfolio strategy, program leadership, and executive-level decision-making.

That gap is exactly why Praizion Media and Pivot Agility are launching the Professional Program Leader (PPL) Certification, a residency-style program beginning January 3, 2026.

Designed for senior project and program managers, business leaders, and executives, this immersive experience blends:
• The Standard for Program Management
• Lean Portfolio Management
• Strategic thinking through frameworks like Porter’s Forces
• Leadership wisdom from John C. Maxwell’s R.E.A.L. curriculum

Participants will build a real portfolio aligned to their organization’s strategy, culminating in a capstone dissertation that bridges theory and execution.

The program runs through Q1 and Q2 of 2026, with flexible financial plans available.

If you—or someone in your network—are ready to move beyond project delivery and into true program and portfolio leadership, I encourage you to explore the details.

Please feel free to share with leaders who are ready for the next level.

🚨 What if the PMBOK Guide was a movie?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bTA5a...

Have you ever stopped to imagine what the jargon, documents, stakeholder battles, procurement hurdles, and risk registers in the PMBOK® Guide would look like if brought to life on the big screen? Not just another lecture or training—but a cinematic experience?

🎬 I’m proud to introduce The Time Machine Project—a film that merges the theoretical foundations of project management with the drama, urgency, and grit of real-world execution. At its heart is Professor Zakari, a theoretical physicist navigating multi-billion-dollar project complexities while balancing ethical, scientific, and stakeholder demands. From change requests to catastrophic delays, from stakeholder engagement to lessons learned—this is PMBOK the Movie. Acted by a world-class cast and crew, directed and produced by the incredibly gifted Diane M. Dresback. Written by your buddy Phill. Story boards and comic art (yes there's a comic coming too) by juan carlos colla acland

This is not just storytelling. It’s project management dramatized. Our students have enjoyed this movie for some years now, and you can too!

📽️ Every document, every tool, every decision—brought to life through the lens of a high-stakes, time-bending initiative. You’ll witness the realities we face in the field—only this time, you're not just reading about the work breakdown structure… you’re living it.

I’m also working on a follow-up project that explores the world of Agile—its values, mindsets, and fast-paced decision-making.

If this resonates with your passion for project management or leadership, I invite you to:

✅ Watch the trailer or full film on YouTube

👍 Smash that Like button if it speaks to you

🔁 Share it with others in your network who believe that project management deserves a new stage

🎥 Because in our profession, every plan has a story—and every story deserves to be told.
