“Arsaga Cheer” held so far
The Up Project involved a wide range of people, including not only PjM and PdM, but also engineers, sales, and consultants.
・Although I only had a vague idea of what a PM’s job entails, I was able to get a clear idea of what kind of responsibilities I have, which was helpful in considering my future career.
・I learned about the practicality and practical methods of generative AI in the field of project management!
・I have experience as a PM after working as an engineer, but I was able to reconfirm that I had become a playing manager and that this led to me neglecting management.

We have received positive comments from 90% of people saying that they were satisfied with the product.
