Rebel’s Guide to PM

JULY 2, 2025

Not every PMO starts with a team of full-time project professionals. Many small organizations begin with just one person wearing multiple hats. Sound familiar?

For many nonprofit organizations and NGOs, managing grants and monitoring projects with spreadsheets and manual processes feels familiar—but is it holding your organization back?
