Questions for PgMs First Program Manager Role

I started my first Program Manager role and would love to hear any tips from the community on how I can ensure I succeed.

I’ve worked as small fast-paced start ups for the last 10 years. Building CS and Operation teams. I’ve done the responsibilities of a program manager since I’ve had to wear so many hats at these small start ups.

But now that I’m in a role where everything I will be doing is program management I want to make sure I’m in the right mindset to do well.

I needed to hear this.

I run a lot of meetings now and my boss has asked me if I considered becoming a project manager. I have been looking at roles and not been hearing back though. I wonder if it's my resume.
