Out of curiosity, we thought about investigating the size of the project manager community in the world.
It was only natural to turn to LinkedIn for some hard data. It did not disappoint.
Here is what we found.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1466682625083{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}”][thb_image image=”2188″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css=”.vc_custom_1466682652252{padding-top: 30px !important;padding-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column_text]The data for the above infographic was sourced from the LinkedIn Ad management tool. Within the tool, the Binfire team used the ‘Skills’ parameter to determine the numbers.
It is evident from the above infographic that the majority of project managers are male, almost 40% more than their female counter parts.
Also apparent is the fact that the United States of America leads in the number of project managers in the world with 30.9% of the whole share. Followed by US are the United Kingdom and India, which collectively comprise for 12.2% of all the project managers in the world.
An interesting conclusion that comes out of our research is the fact that majority of the project managers fall in the age group of 35-55 years. The majority use PM software to manage their projects.
