The KeelWorks Foundation needs project managers to help us with a wide variety of projects. Those with experience would be greatly appreciated. Those without experience who are still learning can be effective, if they are willing to ask questions and keep up task documentation.
This role requires the ability to meet at an agreed time each week and to monitor team communication at least once a day. Project managers often have a PMP certification, but being a project manager requires a person who can be verbally active in a meeting. This doesn't mean talking all the time, but it needs a person who can facilitate discussion, ask what people are working on and how that is going, ask who will do what next, and keep people motivated and on schedule.
A project manager must be able to get along with others and encourage timely delivery. In our case, this person is not a supervisor, and doesn't boss team members. Then this person ensures that the task is represented on a gantt chart (we can teach you how to use a gantt chart).
If you want to learn project management, we'll help you, if you can be available for a set time each week.

Mission Statement
To support a better world with better citizens by fostering learning competence, emotional intelligence, and networked intelligence. KeelWorks especially wishes to bring greater participation to the economically disadvantaged across the globe. We are building a system to support upward mobility.
Description
We are a charitable non-profit virtual foundation. Founded in 2009, we've worked with over 300 graduate students and past students helping them bridge the gap from education to gainful employment while helping KeelWorks build a structure for people needing change. Our goal is to be the equalizer, bringing those on the outside looking in to the inside. Our goal is to end poverty across the world, changing one life at a time. Our special approach involves grouping people for mutual support, teaching core competencies, and supporting goals with objective progress metrics and team accountability, We hope to build a structure for change that can be replicated hundreds and thousands of times. We don't give participants fish, but hope to teach them to fish for themselves.
