About Project Management Masterclass

Project Management Masterclass is the podcast for project professionals who want to move beyond managing tasks and start leading projects with clarity, influence, and strategic thinking. Hosted by Brittany Wilkins, founder of Makoway Consulting, author of Letters to My Sisters in Engineering, and creator of the emerging philosophy known as Execution Intelligence, this show explores what truly drives project success in today's increasingly complex environment. Brittany built her career inside the gap between strategy and execution—the place where capable teams often struggle to turn plans into results. Through years of leading projects, advising organizations, and studying the leadership behaviors that separate successful initiatives from failed ones, she developed a simple belief: Project success is rarely limited by effort. More often, it is limited by execution. Each episode explores the principles, frameworks, power skills, and mindset required to navigate complexity, align teams, improve decision-making, and deliver meaningful outcomes. From leadership development and industry trends to lessons learned from real-world projects, Project Management Masterclass equips professionals with the tools needed to elevate their careers and lead with confidence. Listeners come for the insight and stay for the practical perspective. One listener shared: "I listened during a road trip from Arkansas to Texas and was completely hooked. The content is relevant, inspiring, and genuinely memorable." Another reflection from the same review: "Your calm, articulate cadence makes the content accessible even for listeners who speak English as a second language."

Tap into the insights. Strengthen your leadership. Execute with intention.

[…] So throughout today's show, here's a question I want us to kind of sit with and to kind of think about. How do we adapt the plan without constantly disrupting execution? And I'll tell you, sometimes it can become really, truly a tug of war. Because at some point, you desire to get things done. The team has to get something done. So adaptive planning isn't simply about getting better at changing the plan. How I see it personally is the harder challenge is knowing when the plan should change and what about the plan specifically should change and who has the authority to make the decision of these changes.
