I'm a new PM. After a long career in legal support roles, I got moved into a PM role. Technically my title is coordinator, but the JD and salary are more PM-level, and I'm the only one in this role at my org. I'm excited and surprised to have this opportunity, but I'm also completely unprepared. I was given a PMP-prep course and an industry-specific cert to study, and that's the extent of my onboarding. Now I'm in the role and unable to perform a lot of my JD responsibilities, partly due to inexperience and partly due to internal stuff I can't get into without outing myself. Has anyone been in a similar spot and come out the other side feeling a little less like a total imposter?
