“I had the pleasure of teaching Marcus Peterson in the Microsoft Leap Technical Program Manager (TPM) cohort, where he excelled in mastering a comprehensive set of skills essential for effective program management. Marcus demonstrated a deep understanding of the key roles and responsibilities of a Technical Program Manager. He showcased proficiency in managing the project life cycle and various project methodologies, embodying the core principles of TPM. He applied Agile methodologies with exceptional skill, fostering adaptability and continuous improvement. His grasp of Agile values, such as prioritizing individuals and interactions, delivering working solutions, and embracing change, was commendable. Marcus cultivated effective leadership skills, enhancing team dynamics and fostering collaboration in an Agile environment. His ability to build teams, manage time efficiently, and solve problems confidently contributed significantly to the success of our cohort. His enthusiasm for continuous improvement and effective retrospectives was inspiring. Throughout the program, Marcus stood out for his passion for learning and his embrace of the "learn it all" mindset. He brought many real-world experiences to the classroom to offer new insights. He was always engaged with our guest speakers, asking thought-provoking questions that enhanced the learning for all. I highly recommend Marcus Peterson for any opportunity in technical program management. He possesses the skills, knowledge, and mindset to excel and drive success in any organization. Sincerely, Shawna Burtis, PhD Microsoft Leap Learning and Development Program Manager”
